Why not use a local ad agency?

So if they are spending close to $45,000, why didn’t Zimmerman Agency show them the final ad to approve before making it public? Common sense would say yes. I mean…it’s $45,000!!!!

Didn’t they get a chance to preview the ad before it went public?

I’m still trying to figure out what is inside the O. I get the wave, but whats with the circle on top of it? Looks like a fetus or someting.

I believe the city images is not in the best interest of the community for that blue block advertisement shown on tv this am. No references to Beaches, NAS, NAS Museum or any inclusion of community pride just the city of Pensacola and nothing else exist here except Pensacola. That’s sad.. I think that we need to incoperate all escambia into a city and name it so there’s no reference to the city of Pensacola. Let that city stand alone and in time relocate a county offices within the new city of Escambia Florida. Let thoes people destroy the city image and stand by themselves.
And people don’t understand why there is no groth of business in the city. Just look at there non community pride. Just think they even ticked off UWF and they didn’t do the UWF development adjacent to the Ball park because of there non community pride.

Gorilla Marketing….The new you…Doesn’t matter if the Airport is international or not….just say it is…..sounds much more impressive….What happened to truth in advertising?…Doesn’t matter, he writes the rules—Strong Mayor…..Our Loss….My out-of-town buddies are getting a good laugh out of this ‘Big Me’ false impression. We lost Bob Snow because the studies showed that the Bayfront/Govt St intersection was dangerous….Now we pay for more studies and it turns out to be safe? Smoke & Mirrors.
Lookin’ more like Chicago politics every day. Can we vote out this Strong Mayor Idea?

Why didn’t the city choose a local ad agency? I can think of at least two that are worthy of the city’s business.

I was drinking my coffee this am and saw this blue block commerical about Pensacola. It wasn’t very impressive no humans, showing nothing much about why people would want to come here. I guess the the city has no sence of community is the reason for such liminted information. They still show Pensacola closer to New Orleans than here. I have a 14 year old grandson that has done better power point presentation than that commercial. Maby Hayward should have used the school system to produce these commercials and saved that wasted money and giving students a sence of community pride for advertising devolpment. O that’s wright we even have to colleges here that could help with that too.

Instead of actually addressing any issues, we’ve just renamed them. We don’t even have international flights. The only businesses we’ve even attracted are more bars. As if alchoholism wasn’t bad enough here to begin with.

So we hired an outside agency that doesn’t even know where our airport is? Money well spent…
