Christina provided Excellent Support

“Christina provided excellent support in the area of Public Relations and Marketing for the 2011 Internet Summit. From tight, yet informational press releases, to providing reliable and trustworthy marketing support Christina made it possible for the rest of the TechMedia staff to focus on other areas, knowing that she would take care of distribution and dissemination of core information to the Media and other press. Christina willingly pitched in by volunteering. She brought with her an extensive knowledge of the subject matter as well as a vast network of contacts enabling us to expand our reach to new audiences in NC and VA. This contributed to the successful increase of attendance by more than 20% over last year. Christina’s writing talent was exemplified by her ability to craft attention grabbing news releases. Her personal outreach to the media helped garner tremendous press coverage from dozens of TV, print and online media outlets. Christina’s work ethic is unparalleled, even as a volunteer. She was willing to pitch in and do whatever is needed to help drive business results. I was pleased to have her on board for this event, and would love to work with her again.” ~ Joanna Wolfe, CISA, CGEIT, Tech Media, Internet Summit 2011

Effective Methods to Reach and Engage our Team Members

“Logistics has long been overlooked from a communications perspective. Though not a primary responsibility for Christina, she found the initiative, energy, strategic vision and resources to create a Logistics Communications Advisory Council to assess the needs of our team members and create innovative, quality solutions. More specifically, she developed a communications plan, including effective methods to reach and engage our team members in eight facilities through the county with clear and concise messages. She provided tools to simplify the jobs of managers at various levels, allowing them to hold more effective meetings and deliver the same messages at the same time. For each of 13 periods, Christina produced a targeted communications package for managers and team members. These were so well received that within less than yeasr, we began producing these materials in English and Spanish.” ~ C. Roy Martin, Former SVP, Logistics-Replenishment, Advance Auto Parts
