So that fact that any attempt to try new ways of advertising that the Civic Centre hasn't done before, regardless of by mail or TV, at least an attempt is being made. I'm looking forward to seeing the new improvements to the building, and to see how it helps Racine's harbor blossom. It's time for a change, and at least someone who knows what they're doing is the one putting it into action.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-7920434350900623362008-04-29T20:07:00.000-05:002008-04-29T20:07:00.000-05:00Looks nice.Looks nice.drewzepmeisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15553144737305430009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-3175700354234018612008-04-28T21:12:00.000-05:002008-04-28T21:12:00.000-05:00Jim is not a City EmployeeJim is not a City EmployeeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-53707791692088932282008-04-28T16:06:00.000-05:002008-04-28T16:06:00.000-05:00How much does this guy make a year working for the...How much does this guy make a year working for the city?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-2450559073824403002008-04-28T11:19:00.000-05:002008-04-28T11:19:00.000-05:00Sir with respectWhere is the spot shown?

He created the facility's first TV commercial; he's advertised in RAMAC's newsletter; he's used Val-Pak (the latter aimed at getting wedding receptions). He also works closely with the Racine County Convention and Visitors Bureau, and there's a full-page story/advertorial in the current Fun in Wisconsin tourism directory. He's eager to talk to anyone who wants to be an event promoter. Sorry I didn't include all that in the original story.Petehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17542901376907047448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-63645376373836500602008-04-28T09:01:00.000-05:002008-04-28T09:01:00.000-05:00I have a better question.Why are so many marketing...I have a better question.<BR/>Why are so many marketing campaines run by the SAME firm who is given no bid contract after no bid contract,<BR/>with no results? <BR/>And why is RCEDC behind all of them? <BR/>With there singular lack of results one would think The City/County would be looking for new blood.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-61099082434158756542008-04-28T08:43:00.000-05:002008-04-28T08:43:00.000-05:00"On his first visit to Racine, he said "I looked o...<I>"On his first visit to Racine, he said "I looked out over the harbor and said this must be Lake Michigan's best kept secret.
