Cumulus Media has named longtime Cincinnati media executive Trey Dolle as Vice President and Market Manager for its Cincinnati cluster, placing a familiar industry leader in charge of one of the company’s most established Midwest markets.
Dolle brings three decades of media experience to the role. Most recently, he served as Vice President and General Sales Manager for Bally Sports Ohio. During his 11-year tenure with the regional sports network, Dolle played a central role in driving revenue growth. He also navigated significant changes across the local media and sports broadcasting landscape.
“I am thrilled to join Cumulus Media Cincinnati. With our powerful brands and strong digital marketing service options, we have the ability to drive incredible results for our clients and I look forward to working with our talented team to do just that,” said Dolle.
Before his leadership role at Bally Sports Ohio, Dolle spent three years as National Sales Manager for Fox Sports Ohio. His background also includes time at Hearst Television’s WLWT-TV in Cincinnati, where he worked as both a national and local sales manager and account executive. His career began in radio, giving him a full-circle return to the medium he now oversees.
Cumulus operates five radio brands in the Cincinnati market across music and spoken-word formats. Those stations include 96 Rock (WFTK-FM), 103.5 WGRR, 94.1 WNNF, 92.5 The Fox (WOFX-FM), and Warm 98 (WRRM-FM). Beyond broadcast radio, the company continues expanding digital marketing offerings for local advertisers. That is an area where Dolle’s cross-platform experience will play a significant role.
Cumulus Media President of Operations Dave Milner said Dolle’s deep ties to Cincinnati and extensive sales background made him a natural fit for the position.
“We are pleased to have him at the helm of our vibrant Cumulus Cincinnati station cluster. We know he will drive growth and create value for our partners and listeners with his deep understanding of the market and connection to the community,” said Milner.
A lifelong Cincinnatian, Dolle holds a bachelor’s degree in communication arts from Hillsdale College. His professional career has also included active community involvement. That service includes work as a board advisor for the Southwest Ohio Council on Child Abuse. He has also held leadership roles in youth athletics. Those roles include serving as an athletic commission president and a football coordinator for local grade schools.
Dolle resides in the Cincinnati area with his wife and has four adult children. As he steps into the market manager role, Cumulus signals a continued focus on local leadership, advertiser solutions, and community connection within one of its core Midwest markets.
