Response 1: <br />ProjecUEvent <br />Description * <br />Gallery One requests funds to support the targeted marketing to arts audiences for <br />our events and e*ribits throughout 2020. Our methods will range from <br />broadcasting to targeted capture. <br />Methods and strategieS include: <br />'1 . Creative distribution tactics to aris organizations and publications around the <br />state that cater to arts audiences through methods such as logo placemeni, print <br />advertising, articles, and tabling opportunities. This bypasses the assumed <br />efficiency of social media and instead goes direcily to the consumer AND <br />associates us with an already trusted brand (other arts organization). <br />2. Radio advertising <br />3. Support of eftibit e43enses such as travel, lodging, and art delivery e)eense. <br />This is capturing the spheres of influence that artists have. By eiribiting artists <br />from the region we have new access to their existing audiences. <br />4. Lease and start up fees for an online iniegrated ticketing system and visitor <br />tracking program. Through the integration of an effective audience capture <br />platform, u,e will be able to target our message to audiences (through methods <br />such as lp codes, purchasing habits and time of year) <br />We have three tourism audience/markets that ue will target: <br />'1 . Our targei audience is self- identified arts lovers, those that have a proven <br />propensity to attend art eftibits and events but are not araare of Gallery One. "l <br />didn't know that there was an arts center in Ellensburg too, rne should go check out <br />their studlo toursl" We are targeting this audience through radio and creative <br />distribution tactics with arts organizations around the state. <br />2. Our secondary audience is those who have a proven propensity to support <br />specific artists, the cultural tourist. "l heard this artist is showing at Gallery One, vre <br />have io stop by and see their rivrrk." The cultural tourist according to the 2018 <br />Dean Runyan report averages $200/day in spending. We are targeting this <br />audience through creative tactics to arts orgs, our visitor tracking system and artist <br />engagement. <br />3. Our tertiary audience is comprised of those that are not traveling for specific arts <br />eperiences but do see art as a value added eperience. "We love to taste wine <br />and I also heard that there are lots of galleries in Ellensburg." These are cultural <br />tourists thai uould likely listen to NWPB, attend an arts event with a friend or need <br />a secondary activity while iheir partner is fly-fishing or attending a sports game. We <br />reach these audiences through our tracking system and NWPB. <br />2500 character linit <br />List of lntended Use of Funds * <br />Marketing with arts organizations and publications <br />Radio advertising <br />Efribit e4cense <br />Ticketing and visitor tracking subscription <br />2l Projections of lncreased Tourism <br />Please provlde the following estimates of how any money received will result in increases in the number of people <br />traveling for business or pleasure on a trip: <br />1.
