Corporate
Communications:
What Have We Done For You Lately?
Who
do you call if you need an Asplundh display booth and brochures
to hand out at a trade show or meeting? How do you get a photo
or a story into The Asplundh TREE? Where can you find photos
and digital images of equipment or operations for a presentation?
The answers are all -- the Corporate Communications Department
in Willow Grove!
Manager Patti Chipman and her staff of Dolores Dugan, Ronnie
Gauker and Kristin Wild handle many of the behind-the-scenes
activities that help Asplundh promote its services to customers
and boost the morale of company employees.
The
following are the primary duties and responsibilities of the
department:
Working closely with sponsors and managers throughout the company
and overseas, Corporate Communications is dedicated to getting
the message out that Asplundh is a great company, made up of
hard-working, skilled and service- oriented employees.
"We're always looking for new ideas to promote Asplundh,"
says Patti, "Especially since we have a major milestone
to recognize next year-Asplundh's 75th anniversary!"
A
Big Celebration is in the Works!
We Want Your Input!
Throughout
2003, Asplundh will be celebrating its 75th anniversary with
special advertising, events and an expanded edition of The
Asplundh TREE magazine.
"We know there's a lot of 'orange blood' out there and
we're looking for all kinds of suggestions on how to show our
pride," says Patti. "We also hope that Asplundh employees
or customers will lend us old photos and anecdotes for possible
use in The TREE and other publications. We want your
involvement!"
