Two :30 spots and two :15 spots will be shot, edited, and developed to launch in late spring. **Last Minute Deals reflects funding for unanticipated marketing/promotional opportunities that may become available March – September 2014. To the greatest extent possible, such opportunities will be presented to the TDC for recommendation to the BCC for approval in advance. However, these funds are available for appropriation by the Tourist Development Director with concurrence of the TDC Chairman and County Administrator if a time-sensitive opportunity would be lost due to the timing of regular TDC and BCC meetings required to obtain advance approval. Total cost of the opportunity must be less than $35,000 and County Administrator approval is required regardless of dollar amount. The TDC and BCC will be apprised of the use of these dollars at their next regularly scheduled meetings. 3 Leisure Media Plan 4  Leisure Media Summary Vendor Opportunity Original Budget Revised Budget Visit Florida Guide 2-page, 4C spread – January release $15,000 $15,000 Play Florida FP, 4C ad – year round distribution $28,650 $28,650 Life’s a Beach FP, 4C ad – spring/fall/winter $9,345 $9,345 Coastal Living FP, 4C ad - Visit Florida: February & April 2014 $47,740 $47,740 FP, 4C ad – reduced from full-year to Beaches, Resorts, and Parks $9,030 $6,020 seasonal presence 2/3 page, 4C ad – November 2013 & August Southern Living $124,000 $124,000 2014 Family Circle, Family Fun, FP, 4C ad – May 2014 $53,674 $53,674 Parents Bon Appetit/Architectural FP, 4C – July 2014 $72,770 $72,770 Digest/Vanity Fair FP, 4C – May 2014 ; Custom advertorial Travel+Leisure/Food & Wine creation ; digital Mar-May 2014 exposure ; $0 $0 custom e-blast 5  Leisure Media Summary Vendor Opportunity Original Budget Revised Budget 3 metro market; reduced from Christmas Digital Outdoor $40,000 $20,000 2013 & 2014 to only Christmas 2014 FP, 4C – VF: Escape to the South – January Toronto Life $10,949 $10,949 2014 FP, 4C – February 2014 issue Crossings $4,500 $4,500 FL editorial and guaranteed EC content Reduced from FP to 2/3P, Regional Magazines 4C units – top-feeder markets, Christmas, $223,624 $175,549 Spring/Summer, Fall :30 sec schedules Nationally for all key Satellite Radio $30,895 $30,895 campaigns Yahoo BT/Geo-Targeted Banners $117,000 $117,000 Google Keyword Text Ads $78,911 $78,911 6  Leisure Media Summary Vendor Opportunity Original Budget Revised Budget Targeted Tile Ads, Promoted Facebook $28,583 $28,583 Posts Run of Site Banners, CanadianTraveller.net $8,700 $8,700 Newsletter, Social Media Mind Ad Server Ad Serving Fees $10,855 $10,855 FP ad, online banners, Collinson Media $0 $24,999 winter event listing PBS, Family Travel Show 30 minute show exclusive $0 $30,000 Fall (task orders approved prior to 10/1/13) $93,657 $185,273 Christmas (task orders approved prior to 10/1/13) $0 $163,131 Pass Through (Aviation, Powerboat) $24,000 $24,000 2014 Media Planning & Purchasing $101,120 $101,085 Contingency $61,797 $0 Total $1,194,800 $1,371,629 7 Co-Op Media Plan 8  2014 Co-Op Media Budget Market Opportunity Original Revised Budget Budget Canadian Traveler FP, ad in Visit Florida’s Canadian Guide $4,976 $4,976 Canadian Traveler FP, ad in Visit Florida’s Spring Issue $4,976 $4,976 Southwest Airlines FP Ad, August $0 $15,000 All Others Various $275,048 $0 Total $285,000 $24,952 9 Meetings and Conventions Media Plan 10  Meetings/Conventions Summary Vendor Opportunity Original Budget Revised Budget SGMP HP4C ad in Annual Show Guide – March $2,000 $2,000 Bonus FP4C ad in November and 100 hours Meetings Focus $6,500 $6,500 for Lead Generation Program Custom package: Print, Online, E-blasts, Plan Your Meetings $5,000 $5,000 Events, 80 hours for Lead Generation Collinson Media Print, Online, E-blasts and Lead Generation $17,450 $17,450 HP4C ad in Sep/Oct “Florida/The South Prevue Central Meeting”, online, E-blasts, online $3,865 $3,865 Q&A interview Group Travel Family FP4C ad in Nov/Dec and custom package: $8,500 $8,500 Print, Online, E-blasts 11  Meetings/Conventions Summary Vendor Opportunity Original Budget Revised Budget GaMPI Workshop Educational Workshop Sponsorship $2,750 $5,500 CVENT 2 Diamond Listing and Suggested Ad Test $5,802 $5,802 Google Text Ads Targeted to Relevant Search Queries $13,206 $13,206 Media Mind Ad serving fees $0 $500 Conventions South HP ad $0 $2,278 CMCA QP, newsletters (4x) $0 $800 SMERF E-blast, newsletter and banner ad $0 $3,450 GSAE Banner ads $0 $2,025 Small Market Meetings 1/3 page print ads, e-newsletter $0 $895 Convention Center Development of creative needs $0 $9,200 Creative Ads Contingency 2-page, 4C spread – Jan issue $35,000 $0 Total $100,073 $86,971 12 Groups Media Plan 13  Groups Summary Vendor Opportunity Original Budget Revised Budget HP4C ad in Southern Destination Atlanta Weddings
