Dear ICOM Team,
It’s time to gather your projected total billings and gross income for 2010. Email your numbers to me no later than 15, December 2010. Also, please indicate the number of branch offices you have. Gross income is defined as the addition of:
- All commissions earned on media placement (media sales less cost of sales when you do the buys yourself) or media placed by media centers (the agency does not do the buys but received a % of the media buys made by a third party).
- Any income from internal cost charged or fees of any kind (fixed, variable, manhours, creation, layout, final artwork, etc.)
- Production mark-up/commissions.
- Rebates and volume discounts kept by the agency (not cash discounts) from media and production vendors.
If you have any questions concerning this, contact me soon so that there are no delays. Your gross income is used to calculate annual dues.
