September Work Plan
• Look for ways to publicize the "Day Two" story of the ASH announcement,
especially the aspect of how a service facility was transformed into a
headquarters move.
• Meet in New York with George DeVries of ASH and investigate the
possibility of media appointments for him while he's in the city
• If Mayor's schedule allows, seek to make media and/or site consultant
appointments for him in Washington
• Reach out again to local NPR station for inclusion of Carmel in the
national's "Cities" series.
• Continue outreach to site consultants with Carmel updates — most notably
the ASH announcement -- and an invitation for them to consider Carmel
for the corporate expansions and relocations they are managing. Also,
continue sharing relevant new Carmel publicity and Carmel developments
with regional and national media throughout the U.S. and European and
Asian media
• Share (with the Mayor and Nancy Heck) appropriate media leads that
come our way; follow up appropriately.
• Continue outreach for potential speaking engagements for the Mayor in
