DELIVERABLES, IMPLEMENTATION PLAN AND TIMELINE <br /> Our approach is to breakdown the project deliverables and implementation into a three-month (12- <br /> week) block.This has proven to be effective to keep the aspects of the project relevant, align with the <br /> next steps and can "check off" as completed. Below is a sample of the items for each 3-month block. <br /> We are flexible in the timeline as outlined to a shorter schedule based on each event's requirements <br /> and the scale of the event. <br /> 9 to 12 months before the event date <br /> Obtain measurable objectives to guide each part of the planning process from safety, budget <br /> approval, marketing, entertainment, to the marketing campaign. Understanding the event's outcome <br /> ensures our team works toward the same goal. <br /> Establish Budget allocation by prioritizing key aspects of the event. Begin the process of prioritizing <br /> the main elements such as entertainment, technical group, stage, venue, promotion, and marketing <br /> are part of the essential expenditures. <br /> A review of database and preferred city vendors to obtain quotes for services and cost estimates to <br /> begin selecting vendors. Allocate an amount of the budget for flexibility for unexpected production <br /> needs. <br /> Define the target audience and ascertain that the event concept resonates with the audience. Begin <br /> to tailor marketing content to the audience interests and what media is used by the target audience <br /> to lay the foundation for the event. <br /> Secure venue and date for the event's scale, concept, and outcome.A venue is key to match the scale <br /> of the production, a preliminary coordination plan is created that can be adjusted as the event date <br /> approaches. <br /> 6 to 9 months before the event date <br /> Develop marketing campaign visuals for city approval. Recommend marketing tactics and strategy for <br /> implementation and create a schedule of the marketing campaign to include community outreach <br /> which would start at this time. <br /> Create a promotional campaign for large-scale entertainment with media posts, media relations and <br /> other strategic tactics. <br /> Confirm vendors and suppliers with contracts for Entertainment,AV, stage, equipment rentals. <br /> Confirm vendor expectations, deliverables, and timeline of the event to coordinate a point of contact <br /> for the project. <br /> 3 to 6 months before the event <br /> Launch marketing campaign across the tactics and channels approved by the City of Santa Ana. <br /> Community outreach campaign follow up for partnerships (posting event signage on store fronts, <br /> flyers on counters, etc.). Marketing schedules include regular updates by highlighting distinct aspects <br /> of the event on key dates. <br /> Maintain contact with the city on permitting and compliance with city event permit requirements. <br /> 161Page - RFP - 24 - 102 Entertainment Promoter Proposal ARAS <br />
