Contract value

$100,000

No contract value is disclosed in the source material. For a community college media‑buying contract covering local TV, radio, and digital ads for a single fiscal year, comparable contracts in Texas typically range from $50,000 to $150,000 depending on media volume and creative services. Assuming a moderate media spend and the inclusion of planning/reporting services, a reasonable midpoint estimate would be around $100,000. This figure reflects the likely budget for media purchases plus agency fees, but actual value could be lower if the college limited the media plan or higher if extensive multi‑channel campaigns were required.
