Happy New Year!

Happy New Year from EOS Marketing & Communications!

Roll Camera

While we were working here in Atlanta, our local film production crew was on location in Myrtle Beach shooting the local market interviews and footage from one of the Coke case studies we’re currently working on. The trip included a full tour of the city including the beach, Fun Plaza and the local mall. Despite the weather, we’ve got some great footage to capture a great story!

2010 on the Horizon

Lauren and I spent the day at the Coke offices involved in a wonderfully successful 2010 planning session for the Global Immediate Consumption department. 2010 is going to be a very fun year – we have lots of exciting projects on the horizon [videos, newsletters, e-blasts, etc.] and some new IC team members we’re excited to work with! Now, it’s off to celebrate the 2009 successes of the team before the holidays… cheers!

That’s a Wrap!

For the past several months we’ve been working on a couple of Immediate Consumption case studies and today we delivered final approval files to the team! We’re so excited to finally be able to share the stories of Australia, Norway and Belgium with our contacts around the world.

Greetings from Nashville!

Margaret, Lauren and I are back in Nashville this week conducting more on-site research for the YMCA of Middle Tennessee.  This trip we’re focusing on the opinions of members and non-members by hosting a series of focus groups and one-on-one interviews in several of the centers around the area.  By hosting groups in a variety of day-parts we’re hoping to reach a vast majority of the population and gain some valuable insights into what the YMCA consumers want and need in terms of communication.  On a side note, the Country Music Awards are being hosted in Nashville tonight, so we - especially Lauren - are really excited to enjoy the atmosphere.  Who knows…we may even get to see a few country music stars. Here’s hoping!

Calling all artists!

Hear ye! Hear ye! Tombow is holding an illustration contest through the end of the year and the winning entries will be featured on their new Dual Brush Pen set packaging. Plus, there’s no entry fee and the composition is completely up to you. Imagine this: you’re cruising through the aisles of your local art store and all of a sudden BAM! You see your own creation staring back at you from the shelf! A far cry from the days when mom would tape your masterpieces to the fridge.
