The Caucus is issuing a marketing services RFP to assist with the Chicago Metro Recycling Education and Outreach (REO) Campaign. https://lnkd.in/ghW_jFZ8 The Caucus seeks proposals from marketing firms to assist with achieving the three primary goals of the REO campaign: 1) To increase recycling participation throughout the Chicago Metro region (defined as the 275 municipalities falling within Cook, DuPage, Lake, Will, Kane and McHenry Counties), and especially in areas that have not historically had strong participation in recycling programs. 2) To improve the quality of materials placed in the recycling stream by reducing contamination and “wish-cycling” by waste generators. 3) To include information about the availability of products made from post-consumer recycled content materials for residents and businesses. The deadline for proposals is Dec. 20. The deadline for submitting questions is Nov. 27. #MarketingAgencyChicago #MarketingChicago #AdvertisingChicago
