| Happy [2nd] anniversary to me! |
Where has the time gone?
Not only this summer, which proved to be a cruel tease of what is typically expected of Ohio summers, but the entire YEAR!
This past week I celebrated my second anniversary with EMG (well, not all week, but intermittently)and, in looking back, I've learned a lot and met a ton of great people. I even had the opportunity to flex my writing muscles with our Chilling Tales book project.
I hope the next year is as challenging, fun and rewarding as this year has been. And I hope there's another book project in the near future ;) that was a blast!
Cheers, friends!Labels: Awesomeness, Eisen Marketing Group, Marketing, Public Relations |

Congrats to the Joyce from the Peppermint Pig Thrift & Gift on Beechmont Ave. for the nice feature in yesterday's Enquirer.
The store (affectionately referred to as 'the pig'), is a not-for-profit thrift store in which all proceeds go towards supporting Safe Haven Animal Sanctuary, a no-kill animal shelter.
It's great to see such dedicated individuals working hard for a great cause. Thanks Joyce and congratulations! |

| An oldie but goodie... |
Earlier this month was the signing/celebration of the launch of our book, "Chilling Tales from the Porcelain Seat."
Wanted to share a picture of me and Ghost Hunters Jason Hawes and Grant Wilson. They did a wonderful job of working the crowd and interacting with their fans. :) So glad they could come out and be a part of this project! |

| Amputee Coalition of America Youth Camp |
This year, through EMG’s Operation: Outreach program, I’ve had the privilege of assisting the Amputee Coalition of America raise awareness of its Youth Camp- a five-day program provided free of charge to children living with limb loss or limb differences.
Yesterday, we invited members of the media out to experience the camp firsthand, and watch as the campers take on the ropes course. For more information about the camp and other Amputee Coalition of America programs, visit: http://www.amputee-coalition.org
Special thanks to Ryan Cook who came out and did a great piece on the camp, which you can find here:

| Chilling Tales from the Porcelain Seat |
It's here!
The long awaited book and first project of its kind for me has finally been launched. Chilling Tales from the Porcelain Seat is now available for purchase at www.chillytales.com! Compiled and edited by yours truly, and designed by our awesome team at EMG.
Check it out!
SciFi’s Ghost Hunters, Roto-Rooter Launch New Bathroom Reader Book
Chilling Tales from the Porcelain Seat Available
Cincinnati, OH – June 25, 2009—Roto-Rooter, America’s largest plumbing and drain cleaning service provider, has unveiled its latest creation to bring joy and relief to bathroom users everywhere. Chilling Tales from the Porcelain Seat is a vignette-style bathroom reader featuring real life Roto-Rooter plumbers and SciFi channel’s Ghost Hunters Jason Hawes and Grant Wilson. Chilling Tales from the Porcelain Seat features strange but true tales of plumbing horrors and hilarity and is available for purchase at www.chillytales.com.
The idea behind the book stems from all the strange, odd, unexplained and simply weird experiences both the Ghost Hunters and other Roto-Rooter plumbers have witnessed over the years involving pipes, drains, sinks and toilets. “Many of the locations alleged to have poltergeists simply turn out to be plumbing issues, clanging pipes and DIY projects gone wrong,” Hawes said.
“Chilling Tales from the Porcelain Seat highlights the odd experiences that many plumbers encounter on a daily basis,” Hawes added. “Readers will be shocked to learn about some of the things we’ve experienced on the job and we’ve even had folks from all across the country send in their own plumbing stories for the book. There are tales that will curl your hair, and others that are just so funny you can’t help but belly laugh. It’s a great way to spend some quality time on the throne.”
The book is also filled with practical tips, advice and what not to do’s for do it yourselfers who may be looking to tackle a plumbing problem, although Hawes wryly admits that his best do it yourself plumbing advice is to call an experienced plumber. Chilling Tales features toilet trivia and even a special foreword by the Porcelain God himself.
Visitors to www.chillytales.com or www.rotorooter.com can also enter Roto-Rooter’s Chilling Tales Sweepstakes for a chance to win a trip to Colorado where the winner will join Jason and Grant on a ghost hunt at the famous Stanley Hotel in Colorado, the location for the filming of the movie The Shining, or the chance to stay at the haunted Spaulding Inn of New Hampshire, owned and operated by the Ghost Hunters stars. Other prizes will also be available.
