Let’s Get it Started!!!

Hello Everyone!

We are Jana and Nina, the two new interns at AutoCom and would love to introduce us to all of you. We are both from Germany, both young, dynamic and want to learn as much as possible.

Jana will go first:

“Hi everyone!

My name is Jana Appelt. I am 22 years old, I was born in Hamburg and I have been studying Foreign Trade and International Management with a focus on Marketing in that awesome city since 2010.

Prior to joining AutoCom, I served as an intern at Lutz Elevators and Allmiral Hermal. I also worked part-time at R&V Assurance and Lutz Elevators during my studies. Currently, I live in Royal Oak.

My first week is already over now and it’s a big adventure, everyday a new thing to discover!”

Now, let’s see what Nina has to say:

“Hello there!

My name is Nina von Spalding. I hold a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Bonn in Communications and Psychology and am currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Culture, Communication and Globalization at Aalborg University, Denmark.

Previously, I served internships at several communication agencies and have worked as a freelance journalist.

This is not my first time to the States: During 2001/2002, I was an exchange student in Charlotte, NC, and it is just so great to be back after all these years!”

We are looking forward to our time at AutoCom and are confident that this will be an amazing experience!

Jana & Nina

Jack inducted into PRSA Detroit Chapter Hall of Fame!

Hi everyone! Last night we went to the PRSA Detroit Chapter’s annual meeting. During the meeting was a ceremony for Jack Harned’s induction into the Hall of Fame. The meeting was downtown at the beautiful DTE Energy building. We had a great time networking with fellow colleagues in the PR industry and catching up with previous AutoCom employees. After dinner, Marty gave a great introduction to Jack. Jack’s speech was absolutely wonderful! Every one loved it! He talked about some of his past experiences from his hometown newspaper to working with GM and NASA. It seemed that everyone loved hearing his stories as much as we do at our Friday lunches! It’s great to know that Jack’s peers recognize all of his hard work. He has accomplished and seen so much, he truly deserves this award. From all of us at AutoCom: Congrats, Jack! We are all so proud of you! Leave some comments for Jack and keep an eye out for pictures, coming soon, at AutoCom's Facebook page! Until next time, Julia, Kerry...

Time to say Goodbye

Only two days left until Don Haberek will leave the AutoCom Team. He was our COO, interns supervisor and the best cake cutter ever! He always had time for the intern's issues and was listening very patiently and carefully to us. Even if he had to repeat his advice a billion times for the foreign interns! But he wasn't only a great interns supervisor. He also gave everbody the oppotunity to gain some weight, when he was cutting perfectly our (nearly weekly ;-)) cake. We really hope, we will find somebody who has the same great technic to cut a cake: 1) Be very gentle to the cake! 2) Use a very sharpe-edged knife, especially our chocolate junky Mareike doesn't want to waste a bit! 3) Be sure that you cut enough pieces. But we think we allready have a new cake cutter. After a long long time Don finally found his twin brother. And accidentally he is working for AutoCom aswell. :-) Who is dressing like Don, must have the same skills! Thanks for everything, we wi ll miss having...

About Cologne, Cars and Trees… - Update from the other Side of the Lake

Hi or as we would say in Franconia "Servus", a couple of months have passed since I started my internship at AutoCom and even though I cannot share something about the amazing sites within and around Detroit, I can still give you an update on what is happening. Philipp has joined us two months ago and we two are currently working on the Social Media Appearance of AutoCom. Even as "digital nomads" we encounter challenges and still have a lot to learn. However, it is great just to create new things from scratch or nearly immediately see a result when sharing a story or creating a post. But enough of work… About Cologne Larry and the others offered me to go to Cologne to attend a meeting with a client and I - of course - couldn't resist and decided to stay even a bit longer. It was a nice trip with splendid late summer weather and I was able to take a lot of images - at least until my battery died. About cars Since some of my initial projects were crushed by th...
