Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Growth in applications from Greater Minnesota. In 2013, we received 24 non-metro Minnesota applications, eleven of which ended up in the festival. In 2015, we seek a 15% increase in non-metro Minnesota applications. We’ll track success using data collected from applicants. 2: Expanded online producer training and resources. In 2013, online producer resources were accessed 834 times in total. In 2015 we seek to expand online resources, and we seek a 15% increase in the usage of these materials. We’ll track success using web analytics and artist surveys.

Measurable Outcome(s)

In 2015, we received 35 non-metro Minnesotan applications – a 31% increase. Thirteen of these shows ended up in the 2015 festival. We collected ZIP code data from every applicant to determine whether they were a metro-based or nonmetro-based applicant. 2: Although the 2015 festival is not yet complete, online producer resources have been accessed 2,446 times in total. We used URL tracking and web analytics to determine how many times producers had accessed various producer resources.
