Edmonton, Canada Action for Healthy Communities Full time

1.0 **REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL (RFP) SUMMARY**

This request for proposal (RFP) by Action for Healthy Communities Society of Alberta (AHC - Alberta) is an invitation for the solicitation of services from expert marketing agencies based in the **Western provinces of Canada with demonstrated expertise in the tourism sector**. The selected agency will be tasked with developing and executing comprehensive marketing strategies to enhance the visibility, engagement, and interaction within Alberta's tourism and business ecosystems.

Through this RFP process, AHC seeks to engage a highly skilled marketing agency to undertake the design, development, and implementation of a marketing strategy that encompasses online and offline channels, storyboard creation for marketing videos production, and event planning to strategically promote the Actionbiz web-based portal widely. Launched January 2024, Actionbiz is a dynamic web-based portal that aims to enhance visibility, engagement, and interaction within the Alberta business ecosystem, the public looking to support services/products from start-up ventures owned by under-represented communities in the Canadian business ecosystem; and connecting entrepreneurs and resource providers in a dynamic and impactful way.

Actionbiz.ca serves to catalyze growth and innovation across Alberta's diverse business landscape and has identified the critical need for a strategic marketing campaign. The comprehensive marketing strategies developed through this RFP engagement will be used to drive a robust campaign to amplify the Actionbiz platform's reach and effectiveness, ensuring Actionbiz.ca remains at the forefront of facilitating business growth and resource sharing within the province.

** We specifically encourage submissions from vendors that meet the geographic and sectoral expertise criteria to ensure alignment with the strategic goals of this project, ensuring that the selected vendor has a strong local presence and specialized knowledge, which are critical for the effective promotion of Alberta's tourism-driven business ecosystem. **

**1.1. Proposal Guidelines and Requirements**

This is an open bidding process. Proposals received after **4:30pm MST, April 26, 2024**, will not be considered.

AHC-Alberta will not refuse a proposal based upon the use of sub-contractors, but does retain the right to refuse the sub-contractors you have selected.
