Something to celebrate!



Hi everybody,
The important things first: Sophia is one year older now J Sadly a lot of our friends were ill, so we weren’t as many as planned for her birthday dinner, but that did not stop us from having a really good time. We went to a restaurant and had some delicious sushi! Afterwards, we met up with some other friends at my place and had a piece of birthday cake. It was a really fun evening and I am sure Sophia had a great time.

And as I told you in my last blog post, we were at a football game in Lansing and it was simply amazing! So many people for a college sports-event? Unimaginable in Germany! We took off quite early, so we could enjoy the atmosphere and to get some food prior to the game. Poor us, after serving us drinks, our waitress was never to be seen again.  And since it was a really cold day, we couldn’t stay till the end of the game. It was absolutely freezing. So we decided to stop somewhere for dinner, but that was not a too good of an idea. The food was so bad, I can tell. That was apparently not our day!
A couple of days ago I went to the basketball match Detroit Pistons against Cleveland Cavaliers and surprisingly we won! Our mood couldn’t be better that night. It was a really good match and exciting till the end!
AutoCom gives us the opportunity to visit some events of Women in Communications and today we will join a round table with different authors giving tips on how to write an article. We’ve already been to another event before and we can highly recommend participating in their meetings.
At the moment we are trying to figure out our Thanksgiving plans and we decided to go to Nashville. On my to do list are line-dancing and Thanksgiving dinner, but especially the last one is quite expensive. Well, we’ll see. It will take us about 9 – 10 hours to get there from Detroit, that’ll be interesting for sure.  
We’ll keep you posted!

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...
