Information
Title:
Newsletter Advertising Contract
Purpose/Background:
Purpose: Selection of a newsletter advertising vendor that is most cost effective for the city - both in price and service.
The city currently contracts with Wheels of Thunder to sell ads for the Ramsey Resident. The purpose of the ad sales was to offset the price of producing and mailing the Ramsey Resident. The contract with Wheels of Thunder has been in place since 2010, but the number of ad sales has greatly reduced, resulting in a higher cost to the city. In correlation with the reduction in ad sales, the number of complaints from ad customers has been increasing.
The city is required by charter to produce six newsletters per year. To save on production costs, two black & white issues are placed in with the quarterly utility bill and four are full-color with ads.
