Economic Development Subcommittee previews the branding & marketing multiyear plan - June 21, 2023 (audio)

FM #1018 = This is the Franklin Matters radio show, number 1018 in the series. 


This session of the radio show shares the Economic Development Subcommittee meeting held on Wednesday, June 21, 2023. 


Attending: Chair M Hamblen, C Frongillo, G Jones, P Sheridan, Town Administration: J Hellen, L Rivera, J Jacobson, B Taberner, A Love


The branding and marketing plan as drafted by Julie Jacobson & Lily Rivera was previewed with the Subcommittee. Utilization of 2 grants to provide funding for consultant work to develop the brand is incorporated into this multi year effort.


Implementation costs may be minimized for office stationary as the new letterheads, etc. can get integrated upon restocking. How the branding is implemented across the signs and vehicles remains to be determined and will have a cost factor.


The recording runs 34 minutes, so let’s listen to the Economic Development Subcmte discussion on June 21, 2023. Audio file -> https://franklin-ma-matters.captivate.fm/episode/fm-1018-economic-development-subcmte-mtg-06-21-23
