RECRUITMENT ADVERTISING SERVICE
Question #1: Can you share the Reply Sheet rates from the last time this was bid out? Answer #1: Reply Sheets are included as Attachment # 1.
Question #2: Who was the incumbent agency that managed this? Answer #2: Graystone Group Advertising
Question #3: You mention in the RFP that the rates submitted should be net, so we are to pass along the negotiated rates from the media vendor (newspapers), correct? Answer #3: The Vendor should present the total cost to be paid by the Town of Greenwich for each source requested.
Question #4: How would you like the agency fees presented for graphic design work, copywriting recommendations, and media planning and buying? We would like to make sure that we aren't supposed to mark up the newspaper/website ad costs. Answer #4: If the agency incurs these fees in addition to the charge from the media source, they could itemize their invoice to include those projected fees.
