OBJECTIVE: Recommendation of staff selection of vendor to produce our annual Visitor Guide and related contract. CONSIDERATIONS: Annually the Tourism Department produces a printed and digital Visitor Guide for the destination. At the conclusion of each contract tern, Collier County requires a competitive bidding process. The Collier County Procurement Services Division in conjunction with the Tourism Division, developed RFQ 15 -6433 Production of Tourism Guide. The RFQ was publicly advertised on April 1, 2015. Email notices were sent to 679 firms with 55 fines requesting full solicitation packages. One bid response was received by the due date of April 23, 2015. Two (2) non - response forms were received. Staff followed up with contacting eight of the firms requesting the solicitation, but not submitting. Some of the responses included: busy with other projects; could not provide all services required; not qualified; and too much competition to risk time and resources to submit. The result of the bid response from Miles Media Group is as follows: "Turn -key" service including travel and out of pocket expenses, advertisement sales and management, design, research, composition, set -up, and proofing $ 93.000 Cost for printing, binding, packaging and distribution (125,000 copies) $ 52.000 Total cost for Internet media developing, uploading and coordination with CVB vendor $ 1.500 Total of 1 $ 146,500 Percent of Advertising Revenue to be shared with CVB (i.e. for every $1 collected, the percent that will be returned to the County 80 0 Staff recommends award of this solicitation to the responsive, qualified bidder, Miles Media Group. FISCAL IMPACT: The first year cost to Collier County (2016 Guide) is projected to be up to $46,500 based on advertising sales of $125,000 and 80% credited to the total production cost. This amount is included in the proposed FY 16 Tourism Department budget. Subsequent years cost will be determined by estimate depending on paper and printing costs, editorial content changes and new photography needed. The cost history to produce this guide with Miles has ranged from $25,000 to $42,124 over the past four years. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no impact to the Growth Management Plan with this action.

Since the inception of the Greater Naples, Marco Island & Everglades CVB, Miles has had the pleasure of working alongside the CVB team and agency to ensure that the Paradise Coast guide and websites are showpieces for all that Collier County has to offer the traveler. In fact, we have been creating tourism products for over 60 years now and for at least half that period have produced innovative print and digital products focused on Florida, our home state. These include proprietary SEE magazines, and both past and current work for VISIT FLORIDA, Visit St. Pete Clearwater, Sarasota, St. Augustine, South Walton, Experience Kissimmee and Brand USA. We understand publishing and marketing but, more importantly, we understand visitors —their tourism needs and expectations. A core strength of our company has always been our ability to help clients tell their stories and connect to their desired audiences. Our deep insights into print and the ways it must now integrate with digital solutions are foundational to our ability to shape timely, effective tourism products that are in tune with ever - evolving visitor behaviors. In today's digital age, the role of print is being redefined. According to the State of the American Traveler study released in February 2015, 44% of U.S. leisure travelers used print publications for trip planning, and consumers who used smartphones to plan their trips were 54% more likely to use print publications for trip planning than non - mobile travelers. This research suggests vital new directions for print guides. In the pages that follow we outline some exciting ideas for enhancing the print components of the Paradise Coast Visitors Guide and for taking them beyond the page to further inspire and engage potential visitors. Our suggestions include mobile -based Layar technology as well as User - Generated Content (UGC) that cross - promote between print and mobile. In a landscape where consumers immerse themselves in more media than ever before, print holds a unique place in both inspiration and planning. The key is identifying when and how best to reach and influence consumers at both of these stages of the travel cycle. That is the challenge Miles again wants to take on with the CVB. From content creation to ad sales and distribution, we have everything in place (including a long- standing relationship with Phase V, your fulfillment company) to deliver the perfect visitor guide. Thank you for the opportunity to respond to your RFQ. We very much hope to continue our collaborative, successful, future - focused relationship. Sincerely, Roger Miles Lauren Bourgoing Chairman & CEO Account Director X MilesPartnership.com des Packet Page -2447- /marketing destinations r RFP #15 -6433 Proposal for Production of Tourism Guide 6/23/2015 16.F.6. Even as more and more destinations ramp up their digital presence, print remains an extremely strong component of the travel planning process. As publishers of 60 print guides and maps annually, we know and appreciate how important it is to constantly evolve our products based on the latest research and conversion studies. With the rising use of digital devices by travelers we often hear from industry partners that "print is dead" (or dying). However, independent research on the subject shows otherwise. The authoritative State of the American Traveler research conducted by Destination Analysts (http: / /www.milespartnership.com /library/ state -of- the- american- traveler - february -2015) over the last six years highlights that print usage has actually slightly increased (2009 -2015) and print publications continue to have an important role in the travel planning process. A few key takeaways from our recent review of media usage research are: >> Print usage by visitors is not in decline, but in fact has been growing slowly over the last six years. We have moved from a "Mass Media" environment to a new, complex online /offline media environment. Travelers are using "Masses of Media." » Mobile (smartphone and tablet) use in travel planning has been growing strongly and has reached the penetration of print among U.S. leisure travelers. » Print usage spans the generations; for example, Gen Y travelers are almost as likely as Baby Boomers to order an official visitor guide. Our conclusion is that print usage among U.S. leisure travelers remains strong but there is clear evidence that its role is changing in the trip planning process. With the rise of mobile, its place as an "in market' information source is likely to decrease with an increasing emphasis on the all- important inspiration and dreaming stages of travel planning. This review illustrates why print is still relevant —and important —to the travel planning process. The content within, however, has evolved to become part of a multi - channel strategy that delivers inspirational ideas and travel planning information to consumers through a variety of outlets: print, web and mobile. Knowing what type of content to deliver in each channel is our specialty. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Industry research has shown that potential travelers most often use print guides during the "inspiration phase" of the travel planning process. Therefore, it's important that the new Paradise Coast Visitors Guide entices travelers to choose the area over other destinations — and engages them in a Way that encourages them to stay longer and spend more. AOL .'R iiesPartnershi m ■ ■ ■' l e s M .cor p Packet Page -2448- ,'marketing destinations RFP #15 -6433 Proposal for Production of Tourism Guide ow wih we do t zt —� By r n u g your .°and ro Hf� °�� E 6/23/2015 16.F.6. A content strategy that inspires. We'll make tourists feel like locals and showcase the range of experiences that await —from beaches and nature to family attractions and shopping— through inspiration- focused content centered around an authentic voice and strong social integration. 2. A contemporary design. We'll capture readers' attention by preserving the present design, which successfully reflects the area's energy and vitality while conveying a luxurious, welcoming feeling. 3. A dose of innovation. We're introducing complementary digital components that encourage visitors to stretch their imaginations (and allow your marketing dollars to do more). +r i ' Our proposed evolution of the Paradise Coast Visitors Guide centers around enhancing the publication with content auditions that hook consumers on an emotional level —lay casting light on options that the latest research confirms are particularly enticing. We will grab visitors' attention with the publication's authenticity, quality, substance and style — and motivate them to stay longer and see more during their trip to Naples, Marco Island and the Everglades. Coverage will include area highlights, beaches, water experiences, parks and nature, golf, dining, family vacations, itineraries tailored to specific interest or demographic segments, shopping, area maps and listings for Visitor Services, Area Sightseeing and Accommodations. We recommend the following content enhancements, which will serve to align the Visitors Guide with the CVB's social channels and with tourism industry trends: In recognition of the fact that events are a significant driver of traffic to ParadiseCoast.com, we would like to turn the guide's present Events section (currently a half page shared with the Table of Contents) into a one- or two -page feature that showcases key events and points reader to the website's Major Annual Events page for additional information. The extra space will allow for more immersive photography, and the cross - collaboration between the print and web products will afford visitors a more expansive view of their options. We can cross - promote your online and social channels in various sections of the guide by soliciting ideas, photos, comments, Q &A and more. For example, we can pose questions on Facebook and Twitter ( "Where's your favorite place to commune with nature ? ") and repurpose the responses in the print guide. Suggestions from locals and past visitors add X MiiesPartnership.com � des Packet Page -2449- ." marketing destinations RFP #15 -6433 Proposal for Production of Tourism Guide 6/23/2015 16.F.6. to the guide's overall authenticity in a way that helps position it and the CVB as the most trusted sources of information on the area. Tying in quotes from your social media channels add a fun, personal touch that can resonate with potential visitors who are accustomed to checking with multiple sources before planning a trip. Including this content throughout the guide will not only showcase the compelling things that people are saying about and experiencing in the area, but also invite new visitors to be part of the conversation. To see our design mockup of the new social spread, turn to the Attachments section of this proposal, starting on page 28. We suggest a mild reimagining of the Come Explore area overview spread to reduce the amount of text and allow for additional photography that could help orient readers and provide an overview of area highlights. We might also want to weave in a few arts and culture destinations into the various area sections, depending on the available space. Recent Skift Trends travel industry research confirms that fitness and wellness amenities are of paramount importance to travelers and that an increasing number of them are looking to integrate healthy eating, mind -body habits and fitness into their trips. We therefore recommend integrating spa and active lifestyle /fitness coverage into the guide —from spas and trails to racing events, walking and yoga — either in a dedicated feature or throughout the guide in various sections. Judicially placed photo captions can serve to call out particular partners and draw extra attention to area offerings. We advise adding them in where they can boost reader engagement and insight. They can either describe single images or a grouping of images; in the latter case the caption verbiage could run near the images rather than on them, and include directional text. t . •a in addition to heiping you create an inspirational, engaging contemporary print magazine, we can assist you in developing Tun, innovative online co €nponents that will do more to engage and inspire than your print guide can do alone. We know from recent The State of the American Traveler research that consumers use multiple channels when planning travel and seamlessly transition between print and digital products. This is why we believe it's important to have an innovative eBook solution that makes the Paradise Coast Visitor Guide literally come to life in a digital eBook format. Having an eBook will also allow you to link to the publication from your website and social channels, thereby expanding your distribution without additional mailing costs. Here are three exciting ideas: .{ X I'dilesPartnership.cosn des Packet Page -2450- ,'marketing destinations RFP #15 -6433 Proposal for Production of Tourism Guide 6/23/2015 16.F.6. 1. Incorporate rich media content throughout the eBook experience utilizing assets you already have such as videos, photography, audio files and more. While flipping through the eBook, users will be able to click on photos to launch slideshows, view corresponding videos, click on photos to change a day -time view to the night -time view of outdoor scenes or theme parks, and more. Listings will also link to extended listing information online, adding additional value to advertisers. 2. Create a closer connection with your social media channels such as Facebook, Instagram and Twitter by incorporating a feed into the eBook experience, as well as offer readers the option of following you on Twitter or liking you on Facebook directly from the eBook. We can promote photo sharing ideas (such as contests and hashtags) in the printed guide as well as on your social channels and allow users to upload photos via the eBook. This takes advantage of your current social media community —and helps grow it significantly —by gathering user - generated content and photos to use in future versions of the print guide and on your social channels. 3. Finally, we will provide you with analytics information about engagement with the eBook to help continually refine the guide's content in future issues, such as expanding the most popular sections. The 2014 Paradise Coast eBook had an impressive 1,422 visits and the average time per reader was 6.01 minutes.

Another idea we're excited to propose is to incorporate Layar augmented e reality technology into the new Paradise Coast Visitors Guide. We're currently f z incorporating this new technology into a variety of travel guides we produce. Interact with this page using loyor Here's how it works: [T Readers of the publication will be prompted to download the free Layar app —which just happens to be the world's most downloaded app for viewing interactive print.

Editorial and 'esi--vn ii Editorial Expertise For every product we publish, the Miles editorial approach is founded on creating a strong, local network of freelance writers, carefully selected for their talent, knowledge of and passion for your destination, as well as their ability to present an authentic voice capable of earning the trust of your readers. You can review and approve freelance writers, should you desire. Our content team will work closely with these freelancers to brainstorm ideas, create a content plan and outlines and write copy for the Visitors Guide, all with input from you. We will incorporate your input at each stage until you give all content your final approval. Special emphasis will be given to understanding your branding, important marketing initiatives and key drivers for visitation to Naples, Marco Island and the Everglades. Our approach gives you the benefit of local, on- the - ground knowledge combined with the expertise of our content strategists, who are 100 percent focused on creating the best content for tourism brands. Part of our focus on content is making sure each product's content is accurate, as we know accuracy is essential to building trust with readers and supporting your brand. All of the content we publish will be checked by a qualified, detail- oriented content manager or fact - checker for accuracy, spelling and grammar before it appears in the final product. We require that our content managers and fact - checkers confirm information through primary sources, and that all communication (including phone calls) be tracked and noted by date, time, name and title of the contact with whom we confirmed the information. All content, listings data and advertisements will be proofed multiple times to ensure that the entire team reviews and signs off on all elements prior to going to press. —. 4 The CVB will own this content for use as you wish, and our contracts with freelance writers will ensure your rights to reuse the content in other media. Your office will have an opportunity to review and approve the wording of the freelance contract, should you desire. Our design team is made up of creative thinkers with many years of graphic design knowledge and practical experience in creating award- winning publications. Our artists will meet and exceed your expectations for design and layout with an inspiring creative presentation rooted in study of your destination and brand, and exceptional product quality.

We understand that readers make a direct (if unconscious) connection between the production quality of travel products and the perceived quality of the destination itself. We also know that in travel products, both big - picture creativity and attention to the smallest details must occur to create the highest quality work. We have multiple quality checkpoints to make sure this happens with design, layouts and content —every step of the way. Miles' art and color correction teams are well versed in working with large libraries of digital photography provided by our clients. In our current state -of- the -art Portfolio of images, we have 142,462 catalogued images that are organized by client, geography, subject, theme, date, keywords, name of photographer /models (if applicable) and usage rights information. Our photo selection /collection process includes the following steps: • Identify photo *needs for the Visitors Guide – Outline photo needs for each content piece • Review the CVB's library of images – Identify photographs from the existing library for inclusion in your guide • Acquire images not covered by your current photo library – This step includes working with tourism partners to contribute their imagery to the guide • Conduct photo shoots as needed – This process includes complete management of the photo shoot by our art director, including finding and hiring local photographers for each assignment We have established relationships with excellent photography vendors in your market, so we are confident in our ability to execute photo shoots that produce high - quality, brand - aligned imagery. Our photo budget, which allows for targeted shoots to support new content, includes the photographer, direct expenses, management and color correction for all photos. All editorial and photo assets we create or purchase for this project will have clear documentation that grants unlimited usage rights to the CVB. You'll be able to use the images and content in any marketing materials (traditional or electronic) you choose for an unlimited period of time. Our goal is to use imagery in ways that excite, engage and inspire readers to find out more about the locations we feature. In order to accomplish this, we check every image to make sure it has great clarity, contrast, color saturation and separation. Images that don't meet the standard are either corrected so that they do, or rejected altogether. Miles makes a larger commitment to research, analytics and comparative analysis than any other destination publisher. Working with our team, you'll have the comfort of knowing that our X MilesPartnership.com fles Packet Page -2465- .'marketing destinations RFP #15 -6433 Proposal for Production of Tourism Guide 6/23/2015 16.F.6. recommendations for your programs are grounded in recent, relevant research, as well as over 60 years of destination publishing experience. Chris Adams, our Director of Research, has overseen Miles' commissioning of dozens of major research projects, usability and intercept surveys and conversion studies during the past seven years. Research has focused on leisure travelers, meeting professionals, social media for DMOs, role /relevance of DMOs and other key topics. A key point of difference is all our research is independent — conducted by experts, third party research companies from PhocusWright to Destination Analysts. We also summarize this research and analytics into key takeaways and actionable recommendations — distilling it into simple, powerful white papers and presentations. Our edit and art teams review current research relevant to trends in print and digital products and how consumers use CVB products. That thinking will be applied to the content plan, the design, the data and all aspects of the production of the Visitors Guide. The research, white papers and presentations we have used in our work with Paradise Coast in the last three years include the below.

We've always believed that collaboration is the key to creating informative, compelling and beautiful tourism products that support your marketing efforts. Our team understands that a cohesive branding message and high - quality products are the result of teamwork. Our goal is to deliver products that exceed your expectations in every way, particularly in the areas of quality content and innovative content delivery methods. We want you to feel very comfortable with the process and with your product choices related to content, design and layout. So as always, we welcome and encourage your input during product development. Account Management We work with every client to customize a workflow process that meets their specific needs. Our Account Directors and Project Managers have access to a number of project management software tools that help them monitor and manage all aspects of a project. We want to ensure that all scheduling information is presented in a way that works for you. Internally, we use Workfront scheduling technology software. This software program allows our teams to schedule our projects in great detail, down to individual tasks by employee. All project information can then be rolled up into a schedule to be shared with our clients. Workfront gives us the ability to budget accurately and allows us to locate areas where we can create efficiencies to reduce overall production time. It also allows us to foresee upcoming schedule challenges so we can quickly adjust where necessary. As the largest tourism publisher in the U.S., we not only staff appropriately, but also use systems and technology to accomplish our clients' objectives within the required timeframes. Before production begins, we will work with you to create a production schedule that serves all of your product needs. The schedule will clearly communicate key steps, timeframes and touch points needed to facilitate smooth, on -time production, ensuring that you're comfortable at each stage. The goal is for you to understand deliverables clearly and to have input throughout the process. Just as the quality of our products reflects on our organization, the quality of your products reflects on your brand. To ensure that we build the value of your brand, and maintain Miles' commitment to publishing high - quality products, we have adopted these documented standards: Fact - checking, proofreading and editing. All of the editorial content we publish in your visitors guide print publication will be fact - checked by a qualified, detail- oriented content manager or fact - checker for accuracy, spelling and grammar before appearing in the final product. In addition, .P' X MiiesPartnership.com des Packet Page -2467- �'marketing destinations RFP #15 -6433 Proposal for Production of Tourism Guide 6/23/2015 165.6. our editors will provide professional proofreading and editing services throughout the production cycle. Photo color correction. With more than 13 years of re- touching and color correction experience, Production Manager Mike Tompkins has won both national and international awards for his work. He personally reviews every image and scan we publish to make sure it meets or exceeds our standards. Prepress and quality control. We conduct extensive checks at the two critical points in the printing process: first, to review the initial build of templates and master pages before going to press; and second, to ensure that all of our quality standards for design are met mid - production. All of the publications we create are built using the most up -to -date version of Adobe InDesign, and we limit use of fonts to PostScript Type 1 fonts because plate- making is most compatible with PostScript information contained in Type 1 fonts. Images used are converted to .eps files to ensure there is no image compression, and all ads and maps are initially pre - flighted and saved as PDFx_1 a files before being placed in a guide. Agency - supplied .pdf ads are supplied via our upload site at www.milespartnershir).com /upload, where more than 100 file attributes (including image resolution, color and fonts) are automatically checked by pre -flight software. If the ad contains any errors, the advertiser /agency is notified of the issues via the website, which gives them instructions on how to correct the errors. When the design of the publication is complete and all pages are approved by the client, the final stage of file processing is an automated pre - flight through the PDFx system, which checks the elements of the pages to make sure they're all technically sound, outputting our press -ready PDFx_1 a files and sending them directly to the printer. Printing and paper management. Our expertise in print techniques, paper options and quality control measures means that we can offer you choices and recommendations to enhance product quality while controlling costs. We will bring you suggestions for cost - effective paper selections that respect our quality standards and your budget. ,.. u L: t.1 :.«, e t v %. -.� .a .,,, v- � �. a a `ai.. � W.4 r... s a'w ' a e ... w 1. We begin by meeting with you to discuss the proposal and gather your feedback about our recommendations. We also ask you to share any other relevant information about destination news, campaigns and new initiatives that should be integrated into the product. 2. After meeting with you, we create a detailed content plan to provide a solid foundation for the product and ensure it satisfies your goals. We provide you with a final production schedule, as well as page layouts, story ideas and coverage outlines. At this time, we welcome your feedback on the design and editorial concepts, and we don't proceed to next steps until we know you're on board. We then contract with trusted, professional freelance writers who know your market; however, we can collaborate with you on writer selection if you prefer. 3. The next steps include writing articles, fact - checking, conducting photo shoots, designing pages, placing ads and editing cover -to- cover. 4.

We will provide a print - quality proof of the cover for your review prior to the guide being released for print. As you know, Miles has full -time data team members who collect, verify and maintain listing information. We also have database technology that lets us store and keep up -to -date more than 600 fields of information for each business. This is the same database that provides information to the CVB's website, ParadiseCoast.com. As part of our data collection and verification process, your Data Manager will contact directly each business that qualifies for a listing, using online forms, email, fax, mail and phone to update and verify its information. Once the verification process is complete, we will notify the CVB of any active listings that did not respond to our verification attempts so that it may determine and let us know if those listings should be included. Thanks to this thorough process, we have a track record of producing accurate, defensible data for our clients. Distribution We work with a number of reputable, experienced shipping companies and will ensure that your products are delivered in a safe and timely manner. We work with Phase V, the CVB's longtime fulfillment company, to coordinate production of the Visitors Guide to meet postal specifications, to work with Phase V's labeling equipment, and to ensure timely delivery of the guides to their warehouse in Fort Myers.

In searching for a turnkey advertising solution for the annual Visitors Guide, the CVB needs a partner who brings three things to the table to make the program successful in Collier County: 1) proven success in selling tourism advertising; 2) an understanding of the local market and; 3) the unique ability to develop trusting advertiser relationships. No other vendor can come close to matching. our qualifications in these critical areas. Miles has been selling advertising in tourism publications since 1954, starting with a local tourism publication in Sarasota, and expanding over the years to include visitor guides from Key West to Vancouver and from New Hampshire to Anaheim. As a company, we generate more than $25 million of industry participation annually, making us one of the largest destination tourism publishers in North America. In addition, Miles has been selling tourism advertising in Collier County for more than 20 years, including providing a turnkey advertising sales solution for the CVB's Visitors Guide (and its new website) since its launch 12 years ago. Account Executive Irish Carroll is in his third sales cycle with the CVB's products and his consultative sales approach has proven to be very effective for selling and for developing close relationships with advertisers and non - advertisers throughout the area. The CVB has held guide rates steady for several years, even after launching a new website and adding a more robust digital advertising component to the sales effort. Our priority is to continue to expand value for advertisers while holding down costs; with the continued growth in tourism comes increased competition for limited advertising budgets. Our recommendation is for a modest (approximately) 2% increase in 2016 rates while continuing to elevate guide requests and electronic guide views through innovations like the new sticky footer on the CVB's website. For the 2016 Paradise Coast Visitors Guide recommended rate card and the 2015 Paradise Coast Official Visitors Guide Media Kit, see the Attachments section of this proposal, starting on page 28. With regard to the ads, most are formatted and Miles will prepare the ads: we require only photos, logo and copy, which requires no agency design (in some instances certain advertisers have requested and been approved for their agency to supply a non - formatted ad). Full -page advertisers have the option of submitting non - formatted ads, if desired. While there will be no prepay discounts, we can bill clients to meet their fiscal budget cycles, when needed. As done previously, we will create a professional media kit delivering a powerful value proposition for partnering with the CVB in the Visitors Guide and on the website, including the CVB's mission, vision, marketing and advertising campaign outlook, guide distribution, website statistics, visitor demographics, as well as the advertising opportunities available in the guide and on the web, rates and ad specs. _' X MilesPartnership. corn des ,'mark ?fi destinations Packet Page -2470- , RFP #15 -6433 Proposal for Production of Tourism Guide 6/23/2015 16.F.6. Turnkey Delivery of Print & Digital Visitors Guide Formats Advertising Sales and Management Miles has vast experience in tourism advertising sales and has sold millions of dollars in tourism advertising in Florida over the past five years. We have years of experience selling tourism advertising, but this is the CVB's Visitors Guide. The advertisers are the CVB's partners. Our role in managing the advertising sales is to make the guide a success for all involved. As in the past, we will meet to discuss any changes to the business rules for advertising in the guide. We will review with you the rates and the marketing message to ensure that what we say and how we represent the guide is in line with your goals. You will have the opportunity to approve all ads prior to publishing. As part of our service, we will provide the following: • Turnkey sales solution by a qualified, experienced marketing and sales professional • Free advertising production on all formatted ads — includes collection of material and creation of ad for proofing • Ad proofing and approval process for CVB and advertisers — the opportunity for the advertiser and the CVB to approve all ads prior to publication • Accounting and reporting — Miles will be responsible for all billing and collection of revenue and reporting to the CVB We will provide the CVB staff with sales and revenue reports on a weekly basis or on any schedule the CVB prefers. Secure Advertising and Ad Revenue at No Additional Cost to the County Our model has been based on applying advertising revenue against the total cost of producing the guide. We will provide 80% of all net collected advertising revenue to the CVB to apply in offsetting the cost of Visitors Guide production. The 20% retained by Miles will be used to pay sales commissions and cover sales expenses, ad production, billing and collection. The ad /edit ratio in the 2015 Visitors Guide we created was 28/72% with a book size of 60 pages (56 + 4 covers).We will continue to honor the 40% advertising maximum going forward. `K X MilesPartnership.corn des Packet Page -2471- �'marketing destinations RFP #15 -6433 Proposal for Production of Tourism Guide 6/23/2015 165.6. 9mme At Miles we pride ourselves on the quality of our work. We know we are rarely going to be "the lowest responsible bidder" and we are okay with that because we believe our clients get a different level of quality and innovation when they collaborate with our team. Our team is also very well versed in your brand, has strong Partner relationships and is ready to hit the ground running to ensure smooth delivery of your 2016 Guide.

It assumes we will create new content, generate new photography, work with the agency to produce a new cover and deliver a new guide based on the existing trim size and page count. All listings will be updated and reverified. Advertising and listing formats will remain consistent with the current style. The price includes $4,000 for photography and $3,000 for freelance writing. Since much of the content and photography is new in the 2015 guide, the CVB has the option of saving on costs by leveraging much of the current content (with updates). If our discussions with the CVB point to the need to change the scope of work, the price can be adjusted accordingly. Attachment 5 asks for a cost for 125,000 copies, which is higher than the current 110,000 distribution. Our quote in Attachment 5 is based on 125,000 guides in a 56 -page plus cover format. » Should the CVB decide to reduce the quantity to 110,000, the printing cost would be reduced by $5,300. » Should the CVB decide to reduce costs and cut back to a guide with 48 pages plus cover, the printing cost would be reduced by $7,400. » Should the CVB decide to reduce the quantity to 110,000 and the page count to 48 pages plus cover, the printing cost would be reduced by $12,000. .° -:..

Furthermore, the cost could be less if sales exceed $125,000. The cost will cover inclusion of the new Layar technology, which will take the digital experience to the next level and drive more visitation to www.paradisecoast.com. Additionally, if the CVB should decide to leverage a greater portion of existing content from the current 2015 guide for the new 2016 guide, the costs would go down accordingly.
