BUSINESS ITEMS
1. Marketing Service Contract Interviews
The Board conducted four second interviews by having each agency present on unique subject or piece of
their proposal that the Board and staff requested to be elaborated on. Presentations were followed by a
questions and answer segment and then concluded with members reviewing each agency interview in
depth. The TBID Board was in consensus to narrow down the selection to Madden Media and Noble
Studios & DCI as the the top two agencies. Board members were not ready to make a final decision
between the two and directed staff to complete additional reference checks and final program
comparisons to help direct their selection at the May 13, 2020 meeting.
