With Valentine’s day approaching, we thought it was the prime opportunity to reach out to our Magnolia neighbors.

After a little prep work on Friday, our team worked to build a window display to spread the message of love and give a shout out to the “residents” of Fort Worth’s South Side.

On the back wall you will see the message “Love thy neighbor,” and our surrounding neighbors placed on hanging ribbon.

Be sure to come down to Fort Worth’s South Side, pay a visit to us and/or one of our neighbors and check out the window display!

AD BOWL FACEOFF!

We are adding a new twist to watching the Super Bowl commercials: Two of our top ad execs, our creative director and president, will faceoff and comment on the commercials as they air.

We want you to join the conversation! This Sunday be sure to check our Facebook and Twitter pages and agree, disagree or anything in between. Twitter world can use #Faceoff to follow the conversation.

After the big game we’ll reveal the Ad Bowl Faceoff’s Top Five List.

When I began my search for an internship with an advertising/PR firm Schaefer stood out for many reasons. Yes Schaefer does amazing work for companies such as The Fort Worth Zoo, but what really sealed the deal for me was the endless supply of sonic ice and full espresso bar!

For those who know me on a more personal level, it is well known that coffee and sonic ice are two of my weaknesses. Seeing as I have probably helped myself to more coffee than the entire office in two weeks, I decided today would be a good day for me to contribute something- muffins and cookies (Colton-sorry the muffins had bananas in them). 

I hope this small gesture can make up for the fact I may have been the one who depleted the coffee machine last week…..

Since I began interning at Schaefer, I have come to the realization that this is exactly the type of work environment I want for the future. During the interview process Ken asked me if I was a music fan, I instantly answered yes because music is one of my main passions. 

As it turns out, The Schaefer iPod that plays music throughout the building essentially consists of my entire music collection.  Listening to Coldplay, Kings of Leon, Dave Mathews Band, and Mumford and Sons while simultaneously drinking my freshly brewed coffee and munching on sonic ice isn’t too bad of a deal if you ask me. 

Overall my first two weeks as a Schaefer intern have been better than I could have anticipated. I have been included in various meetings with different AS teams and my thoughts and ideas are actually acknowledged and appreciated! 

I am very thankful for everyone here at Schaefer who has welcomed me with open arms and helped me with all of my random questions.  I will continue to thank everyone here in the form of baked goods.
