I'm inquiring whether there is an incumbent firm that has provided services in the past, comparable to this current RFP. If so, may I get a copy of their contract, under Freedom of Information Act (FOIA)? A. This is a new solicitation. Purchase orders were previously issued to 87AM starting in May of 2015 totaling $78, Will a representative of our firm need to be physically present at a GMU facility, for the duration of the Contract? A. no 11. Can you provide guidance / demographic breakdown on the target audience(s) for these scope of services? A. Audience varies depending on campaign and objective. For most campaigns, we are looking for likely arts buyers. Typically, this audience is highly educated with some disposable income. Some campaigns may target other audiences such as families. 12. Are there any quantifiable metrics of success for this scope of services in the near term and long term (i.e. ticket sales, subscription renewals)? A. Yes, we measure conversions to both single tickets and subscription sales/renewals to monitor success and growth. We also want to continue to expand awareness of the venues in the northern Virginia community. 13. We understand that marketing for the Center for the Arts and Hylton Performing Arts Center are part of this scope. Based on this, is one venue considered a higher priority / has the most opportunity for growth? A. They are of equal importance. There are more performances to promote and resources to support advertising for the Center for the Arts. 14. Which of the current subscriptions options (listed on this site has been the most successful to date / least successful? Is there a particular subscription model that CVPA is looking to grow?
3 A. They have all been successful, depending how you define success. We believe that the chooseyour-own subscriptions have the most opportunities for growth and patron upgrades. 15. Is enrollment marketing for the degree programs at CVPA within the scope of these services? If yes, can you provide insight into quantifiable goals (i.e. X% increase in enrollment), and how these goals relate to past performance metrics? A. It is possible, but undefined at this point. If this does happen in the next couple of years, it will be on a small scale. 16. Who do you consider your competitors and peers (i.e. local arts venues, other universities, etc.)? A. Kennedy Center, Wolf Trap, Strathmore, Signature Theatre, Clarice Smith. Competition in the field of live events, of course, can be expanded to anything people choose to do with their time, though. 17. What platforms does CVPA use for paid digital? Will the selected agency have access to these platforms / be responsible for managing, or will we work through a CVPA contact who will facilitate? A. The selected agency will have access to Facebook accounts and be responsible for managing paid campaigns through facebook.

We are in the process of moving to a Drupal system developed by the University. We track analytics using Google analytics. 19.

Will Mason be providing content (particularly copy), or will the contractor need to draft the content for each platform for Mason's review and approval prior to launch? A. We are open to both approaches. 45. In Section IX, Statement of Needs, you note that the contractor should specialize in advertising for arts and entertainment. Will points consideration in scoring be given to offerors who have digital advertising expertise for educational institutions instead of arts and entertainment? A. Arts and entertainment/performing arts venues. See addendum on page In Section IX, Statement of Needs, you note that the contractor must accomplish integrated marketing with a focus on ticket sales, subscription sales and renewals, as well as awareness. Are there benchmark performance goals (either based on conversion rates as a percentage or net ticket sales) that you can share? A. Of course, we expect a positive ROI on all digital campaigns. We understand that awareness is more nebulous to measure. A larger subscriber base as well as higher ticket revenue for individual performances is desired. 47. In Section IX, State of Needs, Point D, you request that data and analysis be provided on a regular basis. Can you define the preferred reporting schedule (weekly, monthly, e.g.) that you would like the contractor to follow? A. Those schedules should be recommended by the vendor, but established in collaboration with CVPA staff. 48. General: Is there an incumbent contractor? 49. General: Is there a contract budget for the first option year you can share? If not, can you share the estimated budget (out of pockets only) for past digital advertising campaigns? A. We are looking to increase the budget to a level (above $50k per year) that requires a formal RFP process. Previously, we have spent less than $50k per fiscal year on digital campaigns.
6 50. Is there a need for enrollment marketing for programs in support of these events? A. No 51. What are the Target Geographies you want to reach? A. 25 mile radius around venues or less 52. Are you interested in both SEO and PPC advertising? A. Please respond with all applicable capabilities. 53. If SEO included, what is your CMS is? A. Our websites are currently old-school html/dreamweaver. We are in the process of moving to a Drupal system developed by the University. 54. What is the budget for this project? A. We are looking to increase the budget to a level (above $50k per year) that requires a formal RFP process. Previously, we have spent less than $50k per fiscal year on digital campaigns. 54. Are there any current digital marketing components that you are currently running? If so, what is working well for you? What has worked well for you in the past? A. Yes, the efforts outlined in the RFP reflect our current strategy. We are open to recommendations from applying vendors. 55. What is your list size for CRM Targeting? A. This depends on the campaign, venue, etc. We have databases of approximately 45,000 (Center for the Arts) and 20,000 (Hylton Center). 56. Can you provide the types of business/locations that you re looking to reach in terms of geofencing? A. Our own venue(s) and possibly competitor venues. 57. What types of events (eg: concerts, art shows, etc.) do you have at these venues? A. Program information is available at cfa.gmu.edu and HyltonCenter.org. 58. Can you confirm duration of 12 months for this project and advise anticipated start date? A. Refer to section VIII, period of performance, on page 4. The anticipated start date is August or September Is there an opportunity have a call prior to creating/submitting our RFP to glean additional information? A. No 60. Page 10, Section XV(B)(12) forbids subcontracting the work without Mason s Purchasing office s prior written consent. Can offerors interpret this provision to exclude things such has media buys, and those services can be pre-approved at the contract administrator or program manager level? A. Correct. 61. Page 17, Section IX(W) asks for the contractor to represent and warrant that "it will not violate or infringe any intellectual property right... ( IP Rep/Wty ). Given part of the proposed Statement of Needs requires the Contractor to work closely with Mason staff to develop keywords, should: (i) the IP Rep/Wty only apply to material supplied by LMO and not Mason staff?; and (ii) how can a Contractor guarantee (i.e., warrant) a keyword recommended during the contract will not infringe a third party s trademark rights in the future because a third party can develop trademark rights in a keyword long after the Contractor s services are provided to Mason, and therefore such acquisition
7 of rights by a third party in the future would put the contractor in breach of its warranty? A. Clarification and negotiation of terms and conditions will take place if an offeror is advanced to the negotiations stage. 62. Page 17, Section IX(W) asks for the contractor to indemnify Mason against any claim of infringement of intellectual property rights which may arise under this contract.. If the Contractor is working closely with Mason staff to develop copy and keywords, and Mason staff has final authority on what keywords and copy is used, shouldn t the Contractor s obligation be limited to its own actions? Please note there have been trademark infringement lawsuits based upon use of competitor s trademarks as keywords. A. Clarification and negotiation of terms and conditions will take place if an offeror is advanced to the negotiations stage. 63. Looking over the RFP for Digital Advertising Services, one item I don t see mentioned is the region you d like to reach with this Digital Advertising. That has a major impact on cost, as our target could be the Fairfax and Prince William County areas, all of Northern Virginia, or additional area up to and including nationwide. For similar venues, we often target people who live within a 3-hour drive of the venue. Should we start with that? A. 25-mile radius of each venue is sufficient. 64. Would it be possible to send us the list of programming from your season for both the Center for the Arts and the Hylton Performing Art Center? We would like to understand the scope of your season to price this accurately, so it would be helpful to understand how much programming you'd want our help selling. A. This information is available at cfa.gmu.edu and HyltonCenter.org. 65. What ticketing platform(s) do you use for each website? A. Tickets.com 66. Would it be possible to submit this proposal via instead of sending hard copies? A. No, please refer to the cover page of the solicitation. 67. Do both the Center for the Arts and the Hylton Performing Arts Center file taxes along with GMU? I am asking to assess if either venue are eligible for a Google Grant account (universities and PACs the file along with their university partner are not eligible). A. We are not eligible for a Google Grant. (Sad!) 68. What would be the actual digital advertising budget CVPA would like to spend monthly per platform? A. The vendor should be prepared to advise allocation of budget per platform. Overall, We are looking to increase the budget to a level (above $50k per year). Previously, we have spent less than $50k per fiscal year on digital campaigns. 69. What has CVPA previously spent on digital advertising more specifically what was the amount per platform? A. Overall, we are looking to increase the budget to a level (above $50k per year). Previously, we have spent less than $50k per fiscal year on digital campaigns.

For most campaigns, we are looking for likely arts buyers. Typically, this audience is highly educated with some disposable income. Some campaigns may target other audiences such as families.

The Hylton Center is more firmly part of the community DNA, with many invested resident arts partners, etc. 76. What are your goals for these campaigns? A. Ticket sales and subscription conversions; increased awareness 77. How will you measure success for these campaigns? A. Of course, we expect a positive ROI on all digital campaigns.
