I am Brian Shipman, advertising and publishing analyst for UBS. It's my pleasure to introduce the management team from Meredith, and I'd like to turn it right over to Bill Kerr, Chairman and CEO, who will introduce the rest of the management team and take the presentation from there. Thank you, Bill. BILL KERR Thank you, Brian. We are delighted to be here.

For those of you who are less familiar with Meredith, we are a publishing and broadcasting company who has served the needs of American families for 102 years now, largely through our service journalism. And each month we reach approximately 75 million American consumers through a combination of our magazines, our books, custom publications, our websites and obviously our television stations.

As described in this packet, the Cooperative Partnership Program now includes digital billboards, multi-page print, music management platforms, Google Ad Words, travel websites and much more. The Program continues to embrace new opportunities while maintaining a presence in traditional favorites. The Iowa Tourism Office annually invests more than $500,000 in the Cooperative Partnership Program, negotiating the purchase of large advertising buys and then selling that space back to our tourism partners at a cost far more affordably than what they could purchase directly. In addition, the Cooperative Partnership Program allows the Iowa Tourism Office to diversify its audience and gives the industry a range of advertising choices. The program is truly a public/private partnership that extends the reach of Iowa’s travel message and gives the tourism industry a chance to be a part of Iowa’s broader marketing efforts. Print ads for the Cooperative Partnership Program feature a high-resolution photo from the partner, website, phone number and a reader description. Digital and out-of-home ads vary based on the platform. Partners have the opportunity to proof all ads before they go to print or go live online.
