The Port of Vancouver (WA) is looking to hire a firm to help bolster its PR, advertising and marketing efforts. The one-year budget is between $300K to $500K, according to its RFP.
Located on the Columbia River, the Port handles more than eight tons of cargo (wheat, minerals, liquid bulk and vehicles) per-year.
The Port wants a partner to work with staffers to develop and implement an overall PR campaign, pitch stories and establish relationships with marine and industrial trade media; provide media training and crisis communications work on as-needed basis, and develop a social media strategy using Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Instagram.
Business-to-business marketing experience is essential, and experience within the shipping/port industrial is ideal.
Proposals are due Sept. 25.
They go to:
Port of Vancouver Administrative Office
3103 NW Lower River Road
Vancouver, Washington 98660
Attn. Rick Cline, Contracts Manager
Cline also is taking questions at [email protected].
