How Do I Buy...

Advertising

Procurement Agent(s):
Dustin Mohr

Description:

ISU maintains a pricing agreement for advertisements with the Des Moines Register that departments can use to place ads using their purchasing card. ISU no longer maintains an open contract purchase order for display ads. Requests for display advertising, which generally exceed the limits for the P-Card, should be sent to the Procurement Services department on a non-catalog requisition.

The Purchasing Card is the preferred method of payment for advertising unless it exceeds your P-Card limit.

For advertisements that will display the ISU logo, symbols, institutional names, or other identifying marks, please refer to the trademark management policy. For further questions on trademark policy, contact Leesha Zimmerman at 294-4402.

ISU currently has a contract with the following:

ZLR Ignition - Advertising Agency Services
