5 Things You Didn’t Know About Bobette Kyle
My very skilled VA — Terry Green — has motivated me to make a final 2006 post on this New Year’s Eve by tagging me in her Farewell to 2006! I’ve been tagged? blog post. I’d never heard of this, but I’m game and it’s fun reading everyone’s 5 things. (Terry, no I didn’t know you adopted a son in Korea!)
So here we go…
1. I was the first in my family to go to college.
2. My husband and I went out nearly 22 years before we married in February 2006.
3. I use my last names interchangeably — Kyle, Kyle-Wagner, Wagner
4. I have a full room of oddball collectibles — Wheaties boxes; Star Trek figures and toys; Starting Lineup figures; comic books and other misc.
5. I love fiction novels — read at least one a week — but usually can’t tell you what one’s about a day after finishing.
Here’s a bonus thing just for Denise Aday. I have another mascot she can have to complete a threesome (Not reallly. We love our demon…most of the time. See her darling antics below.)
Some small business people I admire and would like to know more about are…
Bill Collier (newest — and extremely welcome member of the St. Louis Publishers Association board), fellow Bold Biz Babe Polly Schlafhauser, and fellow High Rankings forum moderators Scottie Claiborne and Michael Motherwell (actually, Scottie’s a hard-working admin).

Great mascot Bobette, thanks for sharing! And I look forward to learning a lot here at your marketing blog (just subscribed) thanks to Terry Green.
Very nice Bobette! I knew you’d play along. Happy New Year!!
You are welcome, Polly. Read your five and I’m impressed that you can get to the end of your to-do list. Things come and go on mine, but there’s never an end!
You are welcome, Denise. And thank you for subscribing!
Of course I did, Terry. Thanks for tagging me.
Hi Bobette:
I found your name via the internet and would welcome your help.
I watched the SuperBowl with friends and we debated the process of placing commercials on SuperBowl day. One theory suggetsed the Neilsen ratings were reviewed real time, as the game progressed, thereby dictating fluctuating pricing. We debated whether or not the extent of increased or decreased viewership, as the game plaayed out, had any ‘real time’ effect on when and at what cost, commercial ads were finally broadcasted.
The alternate theory suggestsed ads are placed, in the order the ad is logged with the CBS network and, therefore, the costs are applied at the same rate?
I look forward to your explanation and kind repy.
Best wishes,
Gethin
Gethin, I don’t know how they price the ads … I figure price is determined upfront when the ad is committed to, same as any other ad spot (negotiated contracts, commercials priced according to commercial length and placement within game, or various sponsorships pricing). The real-time theory is interesting. With today’s technology it’s probably doable from the CBS stamdpoint, but could be a hard sell to the advertisers, who generally like to know how much they are paying — and what kind of placement they are getting — before the fact.
