To follow up on Dave's excellent idea:
I'd tell the client you can create these spots for $150. (Or whatever.) If he likes them, then apply the money toward the buy.
The amount of work involved in editing, writing the wrap-around and…

This is our "cool iPod music." There are multiple versions/mixes of this song. Designed to be a major agency sound that you provide very cost effectively to your local clients.
Catchy hook. Written to capture that light, breezy sense of a carefree weekend. Copy can be as short as :05 or as long as :30 or :60. An entire campaign in one fun song!…

Kathie Easton said… - Yep.....your "mail merge" program is definately old school. Yes absolutely businesses hate telemarketers....so it's all in how you present it. Stations all over generate thousands of dollars each month through telemarketing. The business doesn't look at it as that bad word "advertising"....it's them giving back to the community through education and that in turn brings business back to them.
Sounds like you're a jingle company, not with a radio station.
Gotta remember a radio station is first a sales organization backed up by on-air programming.
Just my two cents.....
