activities of its own officers, employees and agents while acting within the scope of

a. The Provider covenants and agrees to protect and hold the City of Oshkosh
harmless against all actions, claims, and demands which may arise related
to this Project. Provider’s obligations will be to the proportionate extent
caused by or resulting from the intentional or negligent acts of the Provider,
its agents or assigns, its employees, or any Sub-Provider it has retained to
Docusign Envelope ID: C08C0C60-28A7-440B-9F41-FC500495605B
7
assist with this issue. The relevant acts are those which are related to the
performance of this Agreement or which are caused by or result from any
violation of any law or administrative regulation. Provider shall indemnify
or refund to the City all sums expended including court costs, attorney fees,
and punitive damages which the City may be obliged or adjudged to pay.
Claims or demands are due within thirty (30) days of the date of the City’s
written demand for indemnification or refund for those actions, claim, and
demands caused by or resulting from intentional or negligent acts as
specified in this paragraph.
b. Subject to any and all immunities and limitations contained in Wisconsin
Statutes, Sec. 893.80, and any applicable part of the Wisconsin Statutes, the
City agrees to hold Provider harmless from liability, including claims,
demands, losses, costs, damages, and expenses of every kind and
description (including death), to the proportionate extent caused by or
result from the intentional or negligent acts of the City, its agents or assigns,
its employees, or its Sub-Providers related to the performance of this
Agreement or which may be caused or result from any violation of any law
or administrative regulation, where such liability is founded upon or grows
out of the acts or omission of any of the officers, employees or agents of the
City of Oshkosh while acting within the scope of their employment.
19. Insurance. The Provider agrees to procure and retain in good standing policies which
in all respects comply with the attached City of Oshkosh Insurance Requirements for
Professional Services.
20. Whole Agreement / Amendment. This document and any attachments identified or
documents referenced contain all terms and conditions of the Agreement and any
additions, subtractions, or alterations to the resulting Agreement shall be invalid
unless made in writing, signed by both parties and incorporated as an amendment to
this Agreement.
21. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement gives no rights, benefits, or obligations
to anyone other than City and Provider and therefore there are no third-party
beneficiaries of this Agreement.
22. Non-Discrimination. The Provider will not discriminate in its actions related to this
Agreement on the basis of race, color, creed, age, and gender, or other protected
Docusign Envelope ID: C08C0C60-28A7-440B-9F41-FC500495605B
8
classes as otherwise prohibited by law. A breach of this term may be regarded as a
material breach of this Agreement. Provider agrees that all hiring or employment
related to this Agreement will not involve any discrimination against any employee
or applicant for employment related to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation,
gender identity, national origin, or other protected class as otherwise prohibited by
law.
23. Public Records. The City is a governmental entity that is required to comply with
Wisconsin public records laws. Provider acknowledges that Wisconsin Public
Records laws assume records are available for public viewing unless there are specific
other laws that prevent or limit release, and further acknowledges that documents
provided to a public entity such as the City are treated by the law differently than
documents provided to a private entity. Provider also acknowledges that it is a
contractor of the City and therefore pursuant to Wisconsin law may be in possession
of public records which are not otherwise also in the possession of the City. Provider
agrees to cooperate with the City and any public records requests. Notwithstanding
any other term of this Agreement, including component parts, the City will always be
allowed to treat the records as either public or as confidential according to applicable
law, and to use documents in conformity with all applicable laws, including public
records laws. Any action the City takes that is consistent with any applicable law shall
not be considered a breach or violation of this Agreement, regardless if this
Agreement or any attachment or referenced document includes terms or conditions
that conflict with applicable law that the City is following. Provider may elect to
challenge a public records decision by City, but must do so at its own risk and own
cost, regardless of the outcome of such challenge.
24. Confidentiality. City as a public body is required by law to maintain certain levels of
transparency of its activities, including those activities carried out through Providers.
Therefore, only those documents related to the Project that benefit from explicit
statutory protections may be redacted or withheld from release. Provider’s
designation of documents or information as “confidential,” “proprietary,” or similar
designation will not prevent its public viewing or use unless it is otherwise protected
by law. Similarly, references to lawful protections of information and documents
through intellectual property rights, trade secrets, or similar designations, will be
protected only to the extent that they qualify for statutory or common law protections.
As a general rule, in light of the statutory definition and required chain of custody
protocols, it is unlikely that information disclosed to City would be considered a valid
trade secret. Provider may elect to challenge a decision in this regard by the City, but
will do so at its own risk, and its own cost, regardless of the outcome of such challenge.

25. Agreement Not to Be Construed Against Any Party. This Agreement is the product
of negotiation between all parties and therefore no term, covenant or provision herein
or the failure to include a term, covenant or provision shall be construed against any
party hereto solely on the basis that one party or the other drafted this Agreement or
any term, covenant or condition contained herein.
26. No Waiver. Failure of either party to insist upon the strict performance of terms and
provisions of this Agreement, or any of them, shall not constitute or be construed as
a waiver or relinquishment of that party’s right to thereafter enforce such term or
provision, and that term of the provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
27. Severability. If any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement shall be
adjudged invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remainder
of this agreement shall not be affected thereby and the remainder of the agreement
shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
28. Choice of Law, Venue, and Dispute Resolution. The laws of the State of Wisconsin
shall govern the interpretation and construction of this Agreement. Winnebago
County shall be the venue for all disputes arising under this Agreement.
The parties agree that it may be beneficial to undertake an initial discussion or
mediation to resolve a dispute. To that end, prior to any formal action taken in court,
the parties agree that if a party has a claim or potential dispute, it will notify the other
party, in writing, and request to meet to resolve the dispute. A meeting shall be
scheduled within 10 business days, unless an extension is agreed upon by the parties.
Both parties agree they will work in good faith to resolve any disputes through
mediation which may include the retaining of a mediator as may be agreed upon by
the parties.
29. Signatures. By placing their signatures below, each individual affirms that the entity
they represent is authorized to enter into this Agreement, and further affirm that they
are authorized by the entity they are representing to bind their respective parties to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Collaborative Marketing and Advertising Roll Out
Tif f any Exhibi t at
the Oshkosh Public
Museum
March 2025 - revised
Docusign Envelope ID: C08C0C60-28A7-440B-9F41-FC500495605B
Campaign Overview
While ticket sales remain the immediate priority, the Oshkosh Public Museum’s broader vision
transcends transactions. The Tiffany Glass campaign seeks to position the Museum as not just a
world-class cultural destination but also a vital community hub and a must-visit for locals and
out-of-town travelers of all ages.
As the Tiffany exhibit draws to a close, the campaign will strategically harness its momentum to
drive a membership push and foster stronger community ties.
By expanding OPM’s membership base, the museum will build a foundation for long-term financial
sustainability. This will reduce the need for ongoing marketing and advertising investments while
ensuring continued engagement with a loyal audience.
Campaign KPI’s
1. Sell 10,000 exhibit tickets
2. Utilize targeted marketing and advertising efforts to generate 2.5 million combined
impressions, increasing overall awareness and visibility of OPM
3. Increase membership base by 30%
The Math
To meet the goal of having 10,000 visitors see the Tiffany’s Gardens in Glass exhibit, and with the
exhibit open for a total of 119 days, we’ll aim to see an average of 85 visits per day but recognize
that weekends (Saturdays) will have stronger attendance numbers. Digging deeper, there are 94
non-weekend days and 25 weekend days. We would aim to get 175 visits per Saturday, a total of
4,375 visits, and 60 visits per weekday for a total of 5,640.
How?
We will break the campaign into four key phases:
1. Awareness and Excitement (Pre-Exhibit Launch & Membership Push) (2025 budget)
2. Driving Ticket Sales (During the Event) (2025 budget)
3. Last-Minute Push (Final Days & Retention) (2025 budget)
4. Membership Push (2026 budget)
The campaign will leverage advertising, social media, website updates, and email marketing to
create engagement across multiple touchpoints. With the given budget, this needs to be a
collaborative effort. The E-Power Marketing team has outlined a comprehensive strategy below.
E-Power Marketing and Oshkosh Public Musem will collaborate to execute the strategies and
tactics below, collectively aiming to hit all KPIs. OPM Execution items will be highlighted in green.
Docusign Envelope ID: C08C0C60-28A7-440B-9F41-FC500495605B
Phase 1: Awareness and Anticipation (April - June 2025)
The goal in this phase is to generate buzz and capture attention ahead of time to build
anticipation and encourage our ideal target audience from select regions to start considering
making plans with their friends, family, and colleagues in select target reg ions.
Key Objectives:
● Setup Marketing and Advertising Channels
● Increase visibility throug h paid and organic channels.
● Highlight the exhibit’s unique elements to intrigue potential visitors.
● Encourage email sign-ups for event updates and drive membership signups using the
members-only event/opening reception as an incentive.
Tactics:
1. Advertising
○ Launch Facebook/Instagram ads targeting art enthusiasts, local cultural
communities, and past visitors.
2. Social Media Campaign (OPM doing in-house)
○ Introduce a behind-the-scenes series on social media.
○ Collaborate with local companies/brands (such as Discover Oshkosh) and art
enthusiasts to promote sneak peeks.
3. Website Updates
○ Build a dedicated landing page featuring exhibit highlights, special events, and
call-to-action (CTA) buttons for email sign-ups.
○ Add SEO-optimized content around local and regional keywords to capture organic
traffic.
4. Email Marketing
○ Send a "Save the Date" email announcing the exhibit.
○ Segment past visitors or newsletter subscribers with targeted email sequences
offering access to the exclusive opening reception when they sign up for
membership by DATE.
○ Provide personalized CTAs for non-members to plan their visit, or become a
member and enjoy exhibit-related benefits.
5. Traditional Marketing (OPM doing in-house)
○ Tap into local relationships. With its rich history, the Oshkosh Public Museum has
built solid relationships with various local entities over the years. Providing local
media outlets with behind-the-scenes access, connecting with local businesses to
put up flyers (or sponsor the exhibit), and tapping into Discover Oshkosh’s channels
to amplify your messag ing will help raise valuable awareness.
Docusign Envelope ID: C08C0C60-28A7-440B-9F41-FC500495605B
Phase 2: Drive Ticket Sales (During the Event)
Please note, that this section of the campaign will be divided into two-month sections, with each
section having a different focus, such as “The Exhibit is Here: Be One of the First to See the Tiffany
Exhibit’s Midwest Premier,” “Discover More/Have You Visited Yet?” “Last Chance,” and “Thank
You/Become a Member.”
Once the exhibit is open, the focus shifts toward maximizing daily attendance and then toward
the end of the campaign, pushing retention, repeat visits, and memberships.
Key Objectives:
● Maintain momentum with consistent messaging throughout the event.
● Create FOMO (fear of missing out) through real-time updates.
● Incentivize membership as a value-add for repeat visits or exclusive experiences
○ For this exhibit or in the future, consider some additional ways to incentivize
memberships.
● Introduce a "curated" local experience giveaway for 4 that is centered around the Tiffany's
Exhibit
○ What: Curated Experience Package Includes
■ Museum Exhibit Tickets
■ Annual OPM Membership
■ Discover Oshkosh XYZ (Collaboration with Amy)
■ Local Art Package (Partner with Fire Escape)
■ Dinner Date (Partner with local restaurant)
■ Two-Night Stay (Partner with Downtown Hotel)
○ Why: The giveaway package raises awareness of the exhibit and OPM memberships,
showcases local partners, and creates a curated and complimentary experience for
your target audience—both local and drive-time markets (Milwaukee, Madison,
Chicago, etc.). The giveaway will be launched in phase 2 to create immediacy.
■ Plants a seed that the exhibit can be part of a weekend getaway, date night,
family outing, or even a mid-week outing.
○ How Can the Giveaway Be Leveraged?
■ Social Media organic posts
■ Advertising Efforts
■ Boosted Social Posts
■ Email Marketing content and database building
■ Website - CTA on OPM Landing Page Created by E-Power Marketing
■ Promoted via signage at the museum for visitors who have not become
members yet.
● OPM to secure giveaway items (OPM doing in-house)
Docusign Envelope ID: C08C0C60-28A7-440B-9F41-FC500495605B
○ *Most of the giveaway items could likely get gifted at no cost. You can let these
organizations know that there is an extensive advertising and marketing program
that will be drawing attention to their business/organization.
○ For any that you are not able to obtain as a gift, we recommend pulling from
advertising funds to cover the cost.
Tactics:
1. Advertising
○ Build Giveaway into advertising creative
○ Continue awareness ads so we are continually reaching new audiences that might
be interested in visiting the exhibit.
○ Launch event ads to encourage visits to the museum to experience the exhibit.
○ Utilize remarketing tactics in Meta, reaching past website visitors, social media
followers, and users who engaged with ads in the awareness phase.
○ If Oshkosh Public Museum can provide regularly updated visitor lists (name, email),
we can use these lists to exclude past visitors from future advertising.
○ Use remarketing ads targeting individuals who have visited the website but haven't
visited the exhibit.
2. Social Media Campaign (OPM doing in-house)
○ Share the giveaway on organic social channels
○ Share visitor testimonials and images from the exhibit in real-time.
○ Highlight limited-time events on stories and posts.
○ Show limited photos of the exhibit to garner interest (similar to this).
3. Website Updates
○ Website - CTA on OPM Landing Page updated by E-Power Marketing to include
Giveaway
4. Email Marketing
○ Send mid-campaign reminders to subscribers, hig hlighting upcoming events or
activities within the exhibit.
○ Offer a membership conversion email with an invitation to enjoy more exhibits
throughout the year.
Phase 3: Last-Minute Push and Retention (December-January)
In the final stretch, urgency is key. The focus here will be on creating FOMO and driving as much
traffic as possible. Additionally, we will focus on future growth and success by encouraging past
visitors to continue to come back to the museum and consider purchasing a membership.
Key Objectives:
Docusign Envelope ID: C08C0C60-28A7-440B-9F41-FC500495605B
● Motivate action with limited-time incentives.
● Encourage impulse visits, especially from locals.
● Push last-minute visits with clear long-term value propositions.
● Drive interest in future events and encourage repeat visits.
Tactics:
1. Advertising
○ Utilize remarketing to continue to reach users who visited the website, follow
Oshkosh Public Museum’s social profiles, or engaged with an awareness ad to
remind them of the limited time left to visit the exhibit.
○ Continue to exclude past museum visitors, utilizing the email list provided by
Oshkosh Public Museum.
○ Use the same visitor list from Oshkosh Public Museum that we are using to exclude
users from our event advertising to reach past museum visitors, encouraging repeat
visits and membership sign-ups.
2. Social Media Campaign (OPM doing in-house)
○ Launch a 24-hour flash sale on memberships (with a discount or special incentive)
promoted on Instagram Stories and Facebook.
○ Post countdown reminders (“Only 3 Days Left!”) with engaging visuals.
○ Feature behind-the-scenes videos of the exhibit to encourage last-minute
attendance.
3. Website Updates
○ Add a banner or pop-up promoting “Final Days” ticket discounts or exclusive events
for members.
○ Include real-time social feed integrations to showcase visitor excitement.
○ Highlight membership benefits such as discounts on store merchandise or early
access to future events.
4. Email Marketing
○ Send urgent last-chance emails with subject lines like “Don’t Miss Out!” or “Exhibit
Ends Soon.”
○ Offer ticket + membership bundle discounts to encourage both attendance and
memberships.
i. This could be something done earlier in the exhibit, so if they buy a membership
in June, they could go check out the exhibit and go to all the special events
completely free (wine, historian talk, etc.)
○ Share staff-curated recommendations to highlight must-see parts of the exhibit.
Phase 4: Membership Growth Strategies
After the exhibit closes, maintain engagement by:
Docusign Envelope ID: C08C0C60-28A7-440B-9F41-FC500495605B
● Sending post-event surveys to attendees with incentives for joining as members.
● Offering limited-time membership discounts to recent visitors.
● Using advertising to encourage exhibit attendees to become members.
● Sending “Thank You” emails with sneak peeks of upcoming exhibits to encourage ongoing
interest.
● Consider adding something here to amplify members on social media, a member spotlight
if you will, that has a short video snippet of the member on why they became a member,
their favorite part of OPM, and then a CTA where the member says, “Become a member like
me today and you’ll be investing in Oshkosh history for generations to come.” (or something
similar)
○ Strong consideration to be given to creating another giveaway specifically
promoting memberships. Sign up for a membership between December 2025 and
April 2026 and you could be entered to win “XYZ”
■ They why, is similar to the phase 2 giveaway. Consider also tying in the OPM
giftshop.
This campaign structure ensures steady momentum from start to finish while targeting both
immediate attendance and long-term loyalty through memberships. Each phase focuses on
delivering the right message at the right time, maximizing visibility, and converting casual visitors
into engaged supporters.

In-Depth Campaign Breakdown

With the exhibit ending in the first week of January, users will now have little time to plan their
visit to the museum. To ensure the museum's long-term success, we will stop all awareness
campaigns, reduce spending on event campaigns, and increase our investment in retention and
membership growth. Note that we are not planning to spend any advertising budget on retention
and membership for broader regional audiences as they are unlikely to be regular visitors who
would benefit from membership without some kind of larger incentive.
