Goodbye and Happy Holidays!!

The time has come to bid farewell to everybody and everything in the U.S. It has been a wonderful and most enriching time over the last six months. I happened to see a country with the widest free market and most outspoken liberty in the world. At the same, time I have seen the historical part in interesting and infamous artifacts from the past, such the very first Model T or Mackinac Island. Having never thought about experiencing all this just some time ago, I will be leaving the U.S. with a big smile. For what it’s worth, there is no doubt that this internship is one, if not the, highlight of my student life, which I will remember for a long time. AutoCom made it all possible, for which I am really grateful for.

I met very many interesting people, like Jack, with his fundamental knowledge of everything he knows about the automotive industry. Taking his advice on trips in the States has proved to be quite helpful. Seeing Larry’s devotion to thing he does best, gives you an extra push with a high degree of motivation on top. Being driven by your passion for doing the things you love most forges only the best “know-how.” Craig is a great fellow to work with. One of his interests is your lunch and the places you go on the weekends. My team members certainly have left a good footprint during the last six months.

As for me, I think my biggest achievement was to see first-hand, how modern public relations has been transformed. I see my AutoCom life being a great momentum for years to come and certainly enough to tell stories for the next month back home.

Everything comes to an end, but endings are always followed by new beginnings. I am living this notion right now, so should my successor.

Thanks and take care,

Kiril

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...

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...

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...
