Zach Tauscher
Account Manager
I grew up in La Crescent and moved to the Rochester area in my late 20’s. I’m now married with 2 kids and currently live in Kasson. In my free time you can find me playing golf or enjoying a beer at a local brewery. I love all sports but my heart belongs to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Michigan Wolverines. As a family we love playing a game of baseball in the front yard, racing monster trucks with our 3 year old, or swimming in our small pool.

Client Testimonials
Paxton Electric
“I’ve been advertising with MN 97.5 and it’s gone great for boosting our sales. They also helped us create our jingle and we’ve had a ton of positive feedback. A lot of our customers have called, we’ve done work for them and they said the only reason they thought of us was because they heard our jingle and ad on 97.5” – Brandon

Caps Kitchen & Bath
“We started advertising on MN 97.5 about six years ago when we had a name change. They helped us brand our new business at the time and since then, we’ve seen nothing but growth. Feedback from our ads has been great!” – Dani
Junge Flooring
“Junge’s Flooring started working with Minnesota 97.5 and Deb Muench because they were ready for more growth
than what word of mouth could bring them. Deb taught them how to grow their business through consistent marketing with messaging that states who they are as a company and why buy from them. They have followed this strategy and Deb continues to write their campaigns to keep the listeners engaged in their products and services. Over the last 3 years they have more than doubled their business and 97.5FM is their primary source of marketing. They love 97.5FM and working with Deb because they make marketing Easy!”
