Marketing & Budget Summary Leisure media spend of $1.6 million will be comprised of new TV spots, interactive campaign, and possibly radio, print, and outdoor. $1.6 million will be spent entirely on the “destination” message. Sales department budget includes a 40% increase in event investment (bid fee) dollars. We will be very aggressive in going after county-wide events. Trade show and sales mission schedule will remain robust. While the declining fund balance is a concern, the CVB will continue to focus on strategically marketing our destination in an efficient and effective manner. Fulfilling our mission is paramount.
