Board rejects $2,100 Lily Pad Creative marketing recommendation after county offers free communications support
Summary
The board voted against recommending a $2,100 marketing contract with Lily Pad Creative after Teton County communications staff told the board the county's new communications team could provide the same services at no cost to the Fair Board.
The Teton County Fair Board declined to recommend a $2,100 contract with Lily Pad Creative for concert marketing coordination after county communications staff offered to provide the services free to the Fair Board.
Kristen Waters, Teton County Public Information Specialist, told the board that the proposed services in the Lily Pad Creative proposal could be provided by the County’s new communications team at no charge to the Fair Board. “All of the proposed services could be provided by the County’s new communications team, a service that is free to the Teton County Fair Board,” Kristen Waters said during her presentation. Britney moved to recommend approval of Lily Pad Creative’s proposal and contract for $2,100 and Mikey seconded; the board voted unanimously against the recommendation and the motion failed.
Board members noted that the $2,100 fee in the proposal would cover only Lily Pad Creative’s services and not advertising placement costs. The staff will continue to coordinate marketing and clarify whether county services will cover advertising buys or only content and coordination.
