JACQUE' FREEMAN
Local Sales Manager
WBAV
Jacque’ Freeman was born in Fayetteville, NC to extraordinary parents who provided a stable foundation and instilled solid values and strong work ethics. The importance of education was stressed, along with the qualities of good character. It was ingrained in Jacque’ that she would be the one responsible for her own failure or success in her life and career.
After graduating from Southview Senior High, she enrolled at East Carolina University where she earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Communications. Serving as business manager for the campus magazine, Reflections, and working at the campus radio station taught Jacque’ the value of a strong community and the significance of her contribution to the community in which she would choose to live and work.
Jacque' started her professional career as a sales representative at WRDW radio in Augusta (see below), but knew she would eventually move into management, given her aspirations of one day owning a radio station. For over 24 years, she has worked in the radio broadcast industry. Her first radio job out of college led her to the aforementioned WRDW in Augusta, GA, and then onward to the Columbia and Charleston SC markets. Having become very proficient in radio sales, Jacque’ was approached by Jefferson-Pilot and Clear Channel Radio in Charlotte, NC. After working for Jefferson-Pilot/Charlotte for 6 years in the nation’s 25th market, she was asked to move back to Columbia, SC to become General Sales Manager for a radio station owned by Citadel Communications. Jacque’ accepted the challenge and was later promoted to Station Manager. After eight years with Citadel, Jacque' moved to Atlanta, GA to work with CBS Radio, but she missed Columbia, so she returned to join Glory Communications, where she currently serves as Market Manager for 3 local radio stations and Director of Sales for a network of 5 stations throughout South Carolina. Jacque’ currently serves as Local Sales Manager for WBAV, owned by CBS Radio in Charlotte, North Carolina.
