Advertising Report by Barry Coleman -Mr. Coleman presented a radio and media
advertising program that he had put together for Englewood. He noted that
the Roc:ky Mountain Journal and ·Denver Journal are two excellent business
publications in which to advertise. Mr. Coleman moved, seconded by Mr. Boselli,
to approve the $15,000 proposal for advertising, using radio and newspapers
to promote active businesses to relocate into downtown Englewood. Discussion
ensu·ed.
There were several questions regarding the timing and the amount of participa-
tion for this proposal. Mr. Coleman noted that he envisioned this program would
sell the community of Englewood as to the amount of space available in downtown.
Mr. Pendleton asked what exactly the message would be and what audience it would
be geared towards: developer, shopper, business owner. He also thought it
was important to identify the 25 most sucessful tenants and ask them to relocate
into the downtown area. Discussion ensued. Mr. Green noted that the end result
is to attract successful businesses to downtown. The question was called.
