TE&Co. Client Network Newsletter Vol. 10: Prototypes, Production, and Press Releases??
Coming on March 16th, 2023?
Happy Holidays!!?
Whew. We did it, everyone! We made it to the end of the year. The last few weeks have been hard charging —?and we’re here for it.?
If I take a moment to reflect on 2022, it was a year of clarity. We spent a lot of time with a lot of great people really drilling down on “who we are” as a company.?
The best part? Not a lot changed. We defined —and launched— a few new ways that TE&Co. can serve more businesses, brands, ideas, etc. through the lens of PR, Communications, or Personal Branding. Amid this exciting and rapid growth, our primary focus will remain on ensuring a high-touch, detail-oriented client experience.?
Speaking of clients…the purpose of this newsletter is to celebrate the wins that we get to be a part of. If you are receiving this newsletter for the first time, welcome. I send this quarterly email to connect with folks in my professional network and showcase a bit more of what we’ve got working under the hood.?
If you regularly read these updates, thanks as always for spending a moment or two with us and reading about our work. I’ve got some exciting TE&CO. updates in the final section of this newsletter.?
Without further ado, here are a few our recent client wins!
#AffordableHousing —?On October 13th, Cloud Apartments held an intimate gathering at their Richmond, CA warehouse to unveil the ‘Cloud S’ prototype, an innovative modular apartment that represents the reduction of up to 50% of time spent on construction and 30% in cost savings. In response to our PR efforts for Cloud Apartments, this exciting milestone was covered by Construct Utopia, The Globe and Mail, and Modular Building Institute, to name a few.?
This summer, DT Institute released their 2021 Annual Report, a testament to the intellectual drive of their boots-on-the-ground program directors, and their values-driven, ambitious leadership, staff, and colleagues. TE&Co. was proud to partner with the talented Brooke Adams (on design) and work closely with the DT Institute team to bring this important document to life.?
Kiley Peters, Founder and Small Business Strategist at RAYNE IX, an executive consultancy for women entrepreneurs, was featured in a U.S. News & World Report’s piece on home-based businesses. TE&Co. has partnered with Kiley and RAYNE IX to support personal branding, PR, and more. Stay tuned! In 2023, Peters will also be launching The 100 Collective, a membership-based in-person and virtual community with a mission to lift up and support women by increasing financial literacy and profitability for entrepreneurs.?
This fall, John DeBlasio, Chairman of DT Global and DT Institute and Founder and Executive Director of the Global Peace and Development (GPD) Charitable Trust, and the Chairman of ContinuityGS, was recognized by Crain's Chicago Business as a “Notable Military Veteran Executive.”?
John also, alongside his wife Heather Holmes, his two adult children Jack DeBlasio and Sarah de Blasio, and his brother, Pat DeBlasio, launched the DeBlasio Family Foundation. The Foundation is intended to commemorate John’s late father, Pasquale DeBlasio, who dedicated his life to civic engagement and service to others in his community in suburban Pittsburgh, PA. Today, each member of the DeBlasio family leads a portfolio of collaborative investments and grants that recognizes that charitable endeavors combined collaborative processes will lead to measured outcomes.?
This November, TE&Co., in partnership with Brooke Adams, supported the launch of Nickol Global Solutions' new website. This website represents the voice of NGS and showcases who they are, what they do, and where they are going. In addition to new brand colors that capture their personality as an organization, their new website includes an easy-to-navigate home page, NGS’ values, a map that captures NGS’ global reach, the NGS story, new photos of their dedicated corporate team, and so much more.
This coming January 2023, Mason Awtry, CEO of Wurkwel Ventures will be featured on WGN as one of “Chicago Very Own.” TE&Co. secured this exciting media opportunity in partnership with Marcella Raymond Media. The story will chronicle one of Wurkwel’s many CSR initiatives: ‘Creating A Better Tomorrow Office Redesign Giveaway.’ Filming will continue next week and will follow the reveal of the winner’s newly redesigned office.
This year, I joined Claire Kennedy, Blair Bodek, and Jonathan Desjardins in bringing renewed energy behind the Executive Board of The Global Good Fund, a nonprofit social enterprise built by social entrepreneurs for social entrepreneurs. With over 4,000 applications for this year’s cohort — and less than 15 selected — it felt right to put my efforts behind GGF to find ways to serve more leaders who are solving complex social problems and achieving #globalgood.
