SANTA FE – Public Service Company of New Mexico poured more than $1 million into advertising from March through June to sell the public on its proposed merger with Avangrid.
Included among four bills to PNM from the Albuquerque marketing firm 3 Advertising is one from early March for $864,290 for ad campaign planning and production, plus broadcast, radio, digital and print ads, the Santa Fe New Mexican reported.
The expenditures – and in-person visits by PNM and Avangrid executives to key influencers – indicate the companies face not just a challenge to gain merger approval from the Public Regulation Commission. They’re also seeking wider public support in a process that could immediately go to the state Supreme Court if the commission rejects the proposal.
