2024 MBA and MIW Mentee, Roberta Hein

Roberta Hein, General Manager of Q-Media Group in Pine City for 3 radio stations, WCMP, Cool Country 100.9FM, WCMP, Anthem Country 1350AM/106.5FM & KBEK, Nice 95.5FM. I am happily married twice by the same man, it's a long story! I have a 22 year old son and I am his biggest fan! I love the outdoors, which includes hunting, fishing, and kayaking. I have been in sales for 10 plus years, started my sales career in the newspaper world, and moved into radio, and have never looked back! I have been the top sales representative for Q-Media in Pine City for many years, and when I was offered the General Manager position, I figured it's now or never and took the leap. The best part of a small market radio station is we are here in the community, providing TRUE local news, weather and sports! Radio is NOT dead, we are not going anywhere, and to be honest, the support from the local businesses we get here at Q-Media makes me realize just how much our listeners LOVE listening to their local radio stations! - True Local Radio is alive and well, and I'm proud to be a part of it!
