ATTACHMENT B - SCOPE OF WORK/SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS
1. Scope of Work:
Project goals
The goal of the Renton Community Marketing Campaign is to promote Renton as a
destination for tourism, recreation, business opportunity and investment using the latest
technologies. The campaign goals align closely with the objectives of the Port of Seattle
and aim to increase visitor traffic to Renton through SEA International Airport.
Through campaign efforts to grow awareness and increase overnight stays, the campaign
aims to make Renton, as a part of the greater Seattle region, a travel destination of choice
for visitors outside Washington state.
The plan for 2022 is to use geolocation technology to determine Renton visitor
demographics, including where visitors come from and what drives their visit (i.e., hotels,
events, parks, attractions). Geolocation data can also provide valuable insights on
whether visitors stay overnight and if so, how long they stay. Collected data provides the
opportunities to retarget those visitors to return to Renton. The project will use the data
collected through geolocation to create a targeted marketing campaign that resonates
with an audience already engaged and illustrating a high likelihood of returning to the
area and sharing their experience within their networks.
A marketing campaign based on data collected through geolocation technology has the
ability to create targeted promotions of events that resonate with an audience outside
the state. A geolocation marketing campaign campaign will include developing a targeted
audience of potential visitors from 50+ miles outside of Renton and outside of
Washington state using geolocation visitation habits, serving them ads and then tracking
attribution (of those who saw the ad, how many visited Renton; and how many stayed
overnight in a Renton lodging property.)
Ad campaigns will leverage multi-cultural events and celebrations of song, dance, food
and music from the rich communities that have earned Renton the designation as one of
the most ethnically diverse cities in the United States.
Scope of work
The project will target an audience outside of Washington state with digital ads that
highlight Renton as a destination for cultural travelers. Ads will focus on top visitor drivers,
which may include foodies, art lovers, outdoor adventurers and guests to the Puget Sound
region looking for a convenient location close to SEA International Airport and only
minutes from Seattle. After geofencing the Renton area and reviewing data back to 2018,
an ad focus will be determined to best maximize ad spend.
Agreement – 2022 Tourism Marketing Support Program
Contract No. S-00321072
Page 11 of 15
The project scope includes the following activities:
Geofence all Renton hotels, downtown attractions, high-visitation/event areas
parks and outdoor spaces), the city of Renton itself and SEA International Airport
Develop a geolocation-based marketing campaign using collected data (may be for
an event or brand campaign)
Target those who’ve visited in the past 3 years, encourage them to stay overnight
Create campaign concepts (2 options)
Refine chosen concept (include Port of Seattle logo)
Design digial geolocation ad (6 sizes/formats) and campaign landing page; include
Port of Seattle logo
Coordinate with Port of Seattle for review and approval of Port logo placement
Using the geolocation platform, deliver digital ads to reach a targeted audience of
potential visitors from 50+ miles outside of Renton and outside of Washington state
using geolocation behaviors
Combine geolocation data with geolocation digital marketing results to track Renton
visitor demographics including where visitors came from and advertising attribution
of those who saw the ad, how many visited Renton; and how many stayed
overnight in a Renton lodging property)
Geolocation data provides insights that make marketing campaigns more effective.
Knowing the states visitors came from, where they have stayed and what they did helps
us reach people most likely to fly to SEA International Airport and explore Renton and
beyond. With its proximity to the airport, Renton is a natural basecamp for visitors who
want to experience Western Washington’s diverse cultures, history and outdoor
adventures.
The geolocation marketing campaign will deliver information to visitors about Renton’s
proximity to SEA International Airport through a campaign landing page on
VisitRenton.com and all the activities available once they arrive. Visitors will see
itineraries for attractions, restaurant suggestions, waterfront activities and things to do
before or after their flight or cruise out of Seattle by clicking through to read content on
the website that interests them. Visitors will spend more time—and more vacation
dollars—when they’re aware of the many activities here that match their interests.
Collaboration
In 1997, the City of Renton, in conjunction with the Greater Renton Chamber of
Commerce, Renton Technical College, UW Medicine/Valley Medical Center and the
Agreement – 2022 Tourism Marketing Support Program

mission is to collectively market the Renton community to recruit quality companies and
diversify Renton's employment base. The five partners continue to work together in
these efforts.
For the geolocation project, the Campaign will collaborate with JayRay Ads & PR for
strategic planning, creative development, implementation and evaluation services.
2. Metrics/Measurable Outcomes
The Campaign partners will work closely with JayRay to monitor the following metrics
throughout the course of the year to determine the efficacy of the campaign and adjust
as necessary to support noticeable activity in the following categories:

Total trips (day trips and overnights) and average length of stay
Top visitor markets
Top visitor points of interest
Top visitor events (tentative)
Top points of interest (Renton hotels, downtown, parks/outdoor spaces,

and will need to provide documentation for the higher stated match fund
amount, as well as for all Port awarded funds.
