4. Introduction
Moon City Creative District is an art district located in the Woodland Heights
neighborhood in North Springfield, Missouri. It entails a 15 block radius of homes
with studios. They provide opportunities for people to “live & work”, create, and
experience the community. Since 2008, they have been representing painters,
lamp work and hot-glass, textile, musicians, composers, writers, pottery, woodwork,
sculpture, mixed media, handmade books, sketch artists, and sign makers.
With this plansbook, Red Door Integrated Marketing Communications wants to convey
Moon City’s vision, “To establish the Moon City Creative District as a vibrant, unique
and livable area that provides a wide range of arts, cultural, employment and living
opportunities for artists, artisans, residents, workers and visitors and supports the
continued revitalization of the Woodland Heights Neighborhood”.

5. Executive Summary
Red Door Integrated Marketing has created a marketing plan to make Moon City
Creative District a destination spot to our target markets. We have put weeks of
effort into gathering information to provide us with the appropriate data on our
target markets. With our research and insight, we are confident that we know how
and where to target them. The research has guided us to believe that our target
market is split into a primary and secondary market. Our primary target market
consists of young professionals that range from 25-34 and people that are well into
their career/recently retired ranging from 50-64. We are confident we can grab their
attention and educate them through multiple ways:
• Attending & holding a booth at ArtsFest
• Attending & holding a booth at Cider Days
• Signage
• Website
• Social Media
• Arts Benefit Showcase Event
• The Network
• Fliers
• Creating a membership fee

6. These communication pieces will highlight how Moon City Creative District works to
create and maintain a creative community. They will portray the vision and goals the
district was founded on. These strategies will be tracked though event attendance,
number of brochures distributed, recording number of houses being rented/bought,
tracking number of artists, and recording the number of website and social media
hits. These measuring methods will allow Moon City Creative District to change and
enhance anything in the future that they need to as time goes on.
Executive Summary
Mission Statement
To promote, develop, and sustain an artistic/creative community, where individuals
may live, work, and create in a synergistic environment.

7. Research
Red Door Integrated Marketing Communication’s has participated in many things
to get a more clear understanding of Moon City Creative District. First, we visited
Moon City and Commercial Street. By doing this, we were able to get a better feel of
what we were working with and what their vision is. Also, within our class, we were a
part of distributing surveys throughout people in the community. In result of this, we
were able to get 268 participants in this survey. We were able to gain insight on our
target markets, as well as the current perceptions of Moon City and North Springfield
in general. With all of the research we collected, we applied that information to every
aspect of our project.
7
8. Positioning Statement
Moon City offers a community to local artists that offers opportunities of growth
and networking. There are other art districts in the surrounding area that provide
similar opportunities and motives. Moon City wants to be seen as a destination
spot for visitors and locals. They also want to be seen as a place for artists to gain
opportunities. Each creative piece used in this campaign will draw attention and create
awareness for Moon City, including using information that directly focuses on Moon
City’s vision, objectives, and mission statement.

Red Door Integrated Marketing Communications wants to target young artists, who
are just starting their life and have excess time to become part of a community. We
plan to advertise the benefits that Moon City Creative District has to offer. We want to
promote Moon City, as well as North Springfield, as a community. Getting young artists
to live in the creative art district will give them the opportunity to connect and sell their
art to people in the community that can enjoy personalized work.

Through our secondary target market, Red Door Integrated Marketing
Communications plans to target those artists who have more spare time, either
because their children are older or they find themselves having less responsibilities. We
want to give people that have not intentionally gotten away from the creative lifestyle
they used to have the opportunity to become part of the creative district community.
Through the community they will be able to meet people and sell their work.
Target Markets

16. Competitive Assessment
Crossroads Arts District, located in Kansas City, Missouri, consists of restaurants,
studios, galleries, and boutiques. They hold many events in Kansas City that include
culture and get the community involved. “First Friday” is one of their most popular
events where they fill the sidewalks with art and people. The Crossroads Community
Association was formed in 2001, and is now known as the home to more than 400 local
artists and 100 independent studios. Their purpose is to give people in the community a
voice in the city. Being a member in the community, as a friend or as a small or corporate
business owner, you are receiving many benefits. By becoming a member, you are able to
connect with other people and promote your work.
We see this as a primary competitor because they are located only three hours away.
They also have been established for seven more years than Moon City, giving them more
experience and more of an opportunity to have a competitive advantage.
North Village Arts District, located in Columbia, Missouri, is a nonprofit organization
that contains roughly 150 artists. North Village’s most known events are their art crawl
called, First Fridays, and the downtown farmer’s market, where farmers and craftsmen can
sell and show off their work. It is run by 11 people on their board of directors, and it costs
100 dollars to become a member and includes exclusive benefits.
16
17. North Village is competitor to Moon City, in our eyes, because they are roughly three
hours away. A big reason they are seen as a competitor to us is because they have a
budget, unlike a lot of other creative district, they have a hundred dollar membership
fee. This opens a lot of opportunities for them to hold events, as well as market to more
people.
St. Charles, Missouri is known to be one of the most historic cities in Missouri. It
is a place with many views and friendly people. It is known for its unique boutiques,
restaurants, and attractions. The city holds many events to get the community and
visitors involved.
We see St. Charles as a competitor, because it is a historic city that has a lot to offer.
It is a well-known place in St. Louis, and people are well aware of everything it has to
provide.
Eureka Springs in Arkansas is a historic town that has charm to it. Many people take
wedding pictures there and go there to “escape”. They have a lot of award winning
restaurants with a variety of cultures. There are many different things you can do there
such as, canoeing, cooking classes, shop, breweries, etc.
Eureka Springs is a large competitor because it is close, and they have such a wide
variety of things to do. They are well known and established to the point where people
want to have their weddings there. They have a great image, and this is where they have
a huge competitive advantage on Moon City.
17
18. Creative Brief
Red Door Marketing’s overall goals for the creative campaign are to increase general
awareness for Moon City Creative District and to increase the number of residents
living in Moon City. The Red Door designed flyers will be used to increase overall
awareness for Moon City. The brochures, also designed by Red Door Marketing, will
be used to further educate people about Moon City and will include information about
becoming a resident in Moon City. The signs we designed for them, both the large
and small ones, will be used to let people know they are in Moon City Creative District
and increase general awareness of Moon City.
18
19. Brochures
Red Door’s design team has created a brochure which Moon City can hand out at
Artsfest, Cider Days and any other events they attend. This brochure will be packed
with general information about Moon City Creative District along with information
about joining and or moving to Moon City. We have budgeted for printing 1,000
brochures at a cost of $349.99, which equals approximately $0.35 apiece.

Flyers
To help with Moon City’s issue of general awareness, Red Door’s design team has
created a flyer which we suggest should be hung up at various locations throughout
Springfield. We budgeted for Moon City to order 1,000 fliers at a cost of $204.99,
which approximately equals $0.20 a piece.
• Places to put up flyers: Brick City, Gilloiz Theater, Springfield Little theater,
Springfield Contemporary Theater, Skinny Improv, Mudhouse Coffee, Coffee Ethic,
The Urban Cup, Hebrews Coffee, Dancing Mule Coffee Company, different business
on C-Street, all Panera Breads in town, Picklman’s, Mr. Eddie’s, Riad, Maria’s, Stick
It In Your Ear, Fresh Gallery, Hawthorn Galleries, OTC Fine Arts Gallery and Studio,
The YMCA, Randy Bacon Studio, The Outland, Evangel University Bellweather
Gallery, Springfield Hot Glass Studio, RSVPaint, and Art Inspired.

A place of creativity, first and foremost. It's home to artists and creative people
who enjoy a sense of community. In the near future we hope to have an overlay
zoning that will allow artist who live in the district to operate studios in there
homes and have a limited retail presence.
Some mediums presently represented are: painting (watercolor, oil, acrylic), lamp
work, and hot-glass, textile, musicians and composers, writers, pottery, woodwork,
sculpture, mixed media, handmade books, sketch artists and sign maker.

22. Yard Signs
Large Yard Sign
After Red Door’s creative team experienced Moon City first hand, they discovered the
lack of signage in Moon City. Walking or driving around the only way an individual
knows they are in Moon City is from the painted electric poles. The problem with
that is, not everyone knows about the painted electric poles in Moon City, so to the
uneducated eye, they would never even know they went through a creative district. To
help solve this issue we have designed a sign that we recommend placing at the most
prominent location in Moon City. One this will let Moon City’s visitors know they have
reached their destination, two it will continue to make Moon City more welcoming to
its visitors, and three this will help create awareness about Moon City.
Small Yard Signs
To continue to help with the issue of not enough signage in Moon City, Red Door
Marketing has created “18 x 24” corrugated plastic color yard signs. These will be set
up at different prominent places around Moon City to help people know they are in
Moon City Creative District.
Promotions
22
24. Media Brief
The overall goals for this media campaign are to increase general awareness for Moon
City Creative District and to increase the number of residents living in Moon City.
Facebook and Instagram will be used to stay connected with Moon City’s followers
and to increase general awareness for Moon City. The yearlong Facebook campaign
will also be used to direct people to Moon City’s website, where they will be able to
find further information. We suggest sending out a monthly e-newsletter which will
keep members and nonmembers alike updated on Moon City happenings and current
events in the local area. Moon City’s website has several issues that we have outlined
below. Once these issues are solved it will make the website overall more user friendly
and more inviting, among other things.
24
25. Media - Facebook
Facebook
The ever growing Facebook reaches over 1 billion people every day. Our overall
objective for advertising on Facebook is to create general awareness for Moon City,
and to direct people to Moon City’s website for further information about joining and
or moving to Moon City Creative District. This Facebook campaign would run from July
1st 2016, thru May 31st 2017. Our budget for Facebook is $1.00 a day, so our total
Facebook budget would be $365.00.
Suggestions for Moon City’s Facebook page: They need to update their “About” page
to include: Moon City address, and a phone number of someone who individuals can
talk to about Moon City. Red Door’s creative team also suggests including more high
quality photos in your general Facebook posts. Also updating your cover photo to a
more high quality photo will improve the overall attractiveness of the page to viewers.
Something with vibrant colors or a simple focal point would both be good options.
25
26. Media - Instagram
Instagram
Red Door Marketing feels that an Instagram account for Moon City would be extremely
beneficial in creating awareness of their district and for developing a connection to
Commercial Street. The account would feature pictures of C-Street and Moon City,
such as the front of buildings or featured houses and poles in Moon City. Promotional
events, such as Paint a Pole, Moon City Jam, and Dirt Day, would be featured to
promote awareness of happenings going on in the community. In addition to these
more traditional Instagram posts, the account should try to feature photos of certain
artists, shops, and owners on Commercial Street and living in Moon City. Modeling
the format of HONY (Humans of New York), they could use the abbreviation HOMC
(Humans of Moon City), and have them share their own experiences and stories of how
they came to Springfield, how they began their business or began working as an artist,
and other interesting facts.

• Whoever is in charge of the Instagram account should also download the Repost

Moon City Creative District in their photos.
Media - Instagram
27
29. E-Newsletter
Moon City needs a way to stay connected with its members and other people who are
interested in the development of Moon City. Red Door Marketing suggests sending
out a monthly E-newsletter that would include Moon City happenings and upcoming
events in the area. One of the ways Moon City can grow their database of contacts is
to have a contest at any events they attend, for example Artsfest and Cider Days.
Media - E-Newsletter
29
30. Media - Website
Website
On a survey done earlier in the semester having a website presence rated pretty
high. That’s why we think making some changes to the current website would really
help Moon City. Right now we believe the website is hard to look at because its color
scheme is very overwhelming and it’s hard to navigate.
Red Door has designed a new website look that we think Moon City could really
benefit from. We wanted the people who visited their site to really get the feel of
Moon City. We used distressed background textures and a darker blue throughout the
wesbite to give it a more inviting feel.
30
32. Public Relations
Arts Benefit Showcase
Because Moon City is a creative district looking for more artists to move there, we
believe that an arts benefit showcase would be beneficial to connect them to the
community and other arts organizations in the Springfield area. Possible pairings would
include: Springfield Contemporary Theatre, Springfield Little Theatre, Springfield
Regional Opera, Drury Theatre, MSU Theatre and Dance, Evangel University Theatre,
Art Inspired, and other art museums and artists in the area. This event would showcase
local artists by featuring people’s artwork, theatre pieces, singers, and dancers.
Cocktails and appetizers would be served, preferably from a Commercial Street
vendor, and the event would be come and go.
The arts benefit showcase would take place preferably on a Thursday night during
August, September, or October from 6-10 PM at The Savoy Ballroom on Commercial
Street. Red Door Marketing compared the costs between hosting the event at the
Old Glass Place and the Savoy Ballroom, and we felt that The Savoy was more cost
effective for the event we wish to hold. We also chose the beginning of the school
year because students are starting to get back to Springfield, and there is less going
on at the beginning of the school year rather than the end. Although the event is come
and go, we would ask that those wanting to attend would pay for tickets to the event:
32
33. $25 for adults, $15 for students, and $5 for children under 12. A portion of each ticket
would be going towards paying for the venue and catering, and the rest would go
towards benefitting Moon City.
A couple of other suggestions we have for this event is to ask Commercial Street stores
if they would be willing to provide any items to auction off. Below are just a couple of
examples of what could be auctioned off.
• Askinosie Chocolate: could provide a chocolate basket of some sort of gift cards of
certain amounts.
• Hakaar’s Bazaar: Display art pieces and have people bid on those.
In addition to auction pieces, there could be a donation table available for those who
are looking to donate towards Moon City.
Although we believe that the Savoy is the best option as far as costs go, we decided to
leave both venue options because it would ultimately be your decision on which venue
to choose.

Pricing for Savoy
The prices would run about $1850 (plus tax) for Fridays and $1725 (plus tax) for
Thursdays and include:
• Use of the ballroom and courtyard for up to 4 hours.
• Tables, chairs, and tablecloths for up to 150 guests
• Set-up and teardown of furniture
• Projector and screen for slide show, if needed
• Cash bar and bartenders
• Tea/water/coffee self-serve drink station
They can include a stage, but there is not a sound system for performers. Any caterer
is welcome, especially C-Street restaurants! Saturdays are unavailable until November,
but there are some Thursdays and Fridays available. A couple of months in advance
would be needed to notify them if the event should be on a Thursday because there
are regular classes on that day, but that can be changed if they are notified sooner
rather than later.

Membership Fee
Moon City is a growing live - work creative district. As a growing community, they
need a source of income to aid in the upkeep of Moon City’s grounds, along with
money to attend events and any other costs they come across. We feel that a one-time
membership fee of $50 per person would be a reasonable amount. Members would
get exclusive discounts at the National Art Shop and would be the first to know about
upcoming events in the area.
36
37. Public Relations
The Network
The Network is a smaller part of the Springfield Area Chamber of Commerce, and
it provides working professionals between the ages of 21 to 39 with leadership role
opportunities in the community, while also advancing their careers and connecting
them to other peers and business leaders. The membership for the Network is $100
annually for employees of chamber members, $200 for non-chamber members, and
$50 for college students. They almost always have some event going on each month,
and Red Door Marketing believes that Moon City would benefit greatly from this
organization. Not only does it provide them with a voice in the community, but it also
gives them a chance to network with other people in the Springfield area that they may
not have been able to meet before.
Springfield Creatives
To continue to get Moon City more integrated into the local community, they should
join Springfield Creatives. Springfield Creatives, as their mission statement states, “is
a collaborative group of local creative professionals committed to the celebration,
continued development and promotion of the rich creative community in Springfield,
MO and the surrounding areas.” Being a part of this group would offer a lot of
networking opportunities for Moon City.
37
38. Public Relations
EVENTS:
Artsfest
Red Door Marketing believes that interacting with the local community is very important
for Moon City. Doing so will increase general awareness of Moon City, which will increase
the number of possible candidates to move to Moon City. Featuring 140 artist from all over
the country, Artsfest is the largest craft show in Southwest Missouri. Artsfest takes place
on Historic Walnut Street, in Downtown Springfield. To give people as a takeaway from
their fun day at Artsfest, Red Door’s design team has created a brochure that Moon City
can handout to people who visit their booth. Since Moon City is a nonprofit organization
the cost for them to have a booth at Artsfest would be $100 for a 10’ x 10’ booth, plus the
rental of a table and two chairs is $15. This year’s Artsfest is scheduled for, Saturday, May
7th, 10am-6pm and Sunday, May 8th, 10am-5pm. Since the signup deadline was April 1st
they will have to wait until next year to attend this event.
Cider Days
As mentioned before with Artsfest, continuing to be involved in community events is
really important for Moon City. Another festival that happens on Historic Walnut Street is,
Cider Days. Cider Days is a fall time festival that features fall time crafts and treats. To give
people as a takeaway from their fun day at Artsfest, Red Door’s design team has created
38
39. a brochure that Moon City can handout to people who visit their booth. The same as with
Artsfest, since Moon City is a nonprofit organization the cost for them to have a booth at
Cider days would be $100 for a 10’ x 10’, plus the rental of a table and two chairs is $15.
Red Door’s creative team wasn’t able to find the dates for this year’s Cider Days, but last
year’s dates were September 19th and 20th. We are assuming this year’s dates would be
similar to last year’s.
Public Relations
Contests at Events
To help grow Moon City’s database of contacts, we encourage Moon City to have a
contest at some of the events they attend, including Artsfest and Cider Days. They would
have a signup sheet that would ask for a phone number, email, etc., and later, they would
have a drawing to pick one of the people who had signed up that day. Possible prize ideas
would be: a gift card for a local restaurant, or a $50 Visa gift card.
39
40. Campaign Continuity
After the yearlong campaign has run, Moon City will have to decide if they want to
continue with any elements of this campaign. We believe that Facebook and Instagram
will continue to grow, so continuing to us these as a promotional tool would be a
wise us of time and money. If money is the issue for Moon City, we recommend
continuing to post on both Facebook and Instagram, and not using paid advertising
on either social media site. Continuing to use the brochures and flyers will be crucial
in increasing awareness of Moon City, along with growing the number of Moon City’s
residents. Continuing to be more active and involved in the community will be a crucial
element in the long term success of Moon City. Growing Moon City’s network through
attending different events and becoming involved in Springfield Creatives and The
Network will increase the number of potential residents of Moon City. For continued
success, Moon City should analyze the suggested measurements to determine what to
continue implementing in the future.

Throughout this plansbook, Red Door Integrated Marketing Communications has
offered ways for Moon City Creative District to create a greater presence in the
Springfield area and continue to build a creative district. Our campaign includes
