#NAIAS Detroit

Hello Everybody,
There has been a lot going on in the past few weeks, including Detroit’s annual auto show. So please excuse us for not posting as much as usual. Although we were quite busy, we definitely enjoyed being part of Motown’s most popular and exciting event.  Nicole and I were assisting the AutoCom Team supporting our clients, Alcantara and HELLA ─ a really valuable experience. Last Sunday we had the chance to attend the APA media breakfast and to walk through the auto-show before the COBO Center opened its doors to the public.
Our Sunday morning began much earlier than usual, but it was worth it. At 7 a.m. we already were heading toward downtown Detroit and arrived at the media breakfast at 7:30. After we finally found the right meeting room, we enjoyed some croissants, cereals and coffee. As guests of the Press Association we had free and exclusive entry to the floor of the auto show. Many thanks to Merle, who made this experience possible!
I also am proud to be able to tell you that we have developed a new Instagram strategy and that we will now be more active on our channel. So please follow AUTOCOM_ASSOCIATES to always be up to date on AutoCom activities and news.

I have been at AutoCom for nearly six months and can’t believe how fast my time in the U.S. has passed. It is unbelievable that I only have one month to go. I learned so much during my internship, not only language─ or professional wise, but also about myself.


I think a lot of former interns will agree with me, that AutoCom is not only a workplace, but due to its friendly and family-orientated company culture also a fun place, where you can trust and rely on your coworkers. Because of this team spirit, AutoCom wants to keep in touch, with all of its former interns. In the future, we will send out emails to help update our contact list and keep you posted on AutoCom news. If you have not received one, we would appreciate it if you would send us a short message with your contact information.

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...

A New Year, a New Intern

Hi everybody, My name is Véronique and I am happy to say that I will be one of the new interns at AutoCom beginning on March 19. I am a 21 year old student from Germany. The internship is part of my International Business & Management degree that I am working on at the Hanze University in Groningen, Netherlands. I am currently in my third year at Hanze University and the previous semester I studied abroad at a partner university in Macau, China, where I took courses related to my marketing major. I am very excited to start my second stay abroad in a few weeks and I hope that I will gain a lot of professional experience and get to know the area of public relations while working at AutoCom. I also love traveling, so I hope I will be able to see as much of the U.S. as possible, especially since it is my first stay there. It has always been a dream of mine to visit the U.S. and now being able to learn the entire culture and industry by actually living there is a huge bonus. Right now I...

It feels good to be home!

After completing my third year at Northern Michigan University in the Upper Peninsula, it feels good to be back home and in the office again. Larry was very gracious in allowing me to come back to AutoCom. For those of you that do not know me, my name is Tedi Falvo. Last summer I did an internship with AutoCom, and learned a lot about public relations outside of the classroom. Books can only teach you so much- the real learning comes when you go out on your own and put everything you have learned to the test. Last summer was a great experience, and I was thankful to work with such a great staff that was willing to help me succeed. While I was in Marquette, Mich. continuing my studies in public relations, and sociology, I remained in contact with AutoCom. When I had a question regarding an aspect of my studies, I always knew where to turn! It is nice to have wonderful people surrounding and filling you with all of their knowledge. That is one aspect I love about working here-everyone wo...
