Benztown has entered into an agreement with Envisionwise, a Savoy, IL-based web design and development company serving radio since 2001, to offer its easy-to-use, cost-effective technology platform to enhance radio stations' digital presence, while increasing revenue opportunities for stations. The deal includes three technology products that deliver and maintain station websites, Alexa Skills and text messaging service for radio: LinkedUpRadio, Pivot Radio and TextMeMan.

Stations can activate one, two or all three products, with the convenience of one log-in for multiple stations. Envisionwise also offers 24/7/365 live concierge support so there is always a live person to assist with the technology, as needed. The platforms are scalable and give stations more capabilities for less money, with no long-term commitments with both cash and barter options.

Benztown President Dave "Chachi" Denes said, "What can I say about Jackie Parks other than she's a Super Hero! She's Wonder Woman, Captain Marvel and the Black Widow all rolled into one and Envisionwise's incredible services can give stations super powers including revenue generation, time savings and listener engagement."

Envisionwise President/CEO Jackie Parks commented, "Working with Dave "Chachi" Denes, Masa Patterson, Mike McVay and the entire staff at Benztown is an exciting opportunity for us. Benztown has an impeccable reputation with a valuable team and services. We've been in the radio space for over twenty years and have built an empire of digital products that will target the same audience. Joining forces with Benztown and sharing the same vision is a dream come true. We couldn't be more thrilled to work with Benztown and to see what the future holds."
