25/5/09 hey guys heres the responsibility matrix

-Jenny

Hey guys, was just browsing the for some dog stories to inspire this weeks blog when i stumbled upon the following. This parable is quite touching and really makes you think about how you can help. Despite being called __The Parable of the Starfish__, i dont think its an actual bible story.
 * 15/05/09**

//We may not be able to rescue them all -// // One day, a man was walking on the beach. He saw, in the distance, what // // looked to be a boy frantically tossing rocks into the sea. // // As he got closer, he saw the boy actually was throwing starfish, which // // littered the beach as far as the eye could see, back into the ocean. // // The tide had washed the starfish ashore and now that the sun was // // rising in the sky, they all surely were doomed to dry up and die. // // The man asked the boy what he was doing. The boy replied that he was // // trying to get as many of the creatures as he could back into the // // saving coolness of the ocean. // // "But there are millions of starfish washed up on the beach," said the // // man. "What you are doing just doesn't make a difference." // // Picking up a starfish and casting it back into the water, the boy said // // simply, "Made a difference to that one." //

1/5/09** Thanks for being so professional about everything Chelsea. If you ever need a communication consultation, you know where to find us ;-)

Oh and regarding the whole issue about only haivng 3 people in the business '4OUR', solution ahoy! It can be us 3 + our client(1) = 4 :-)

-Rhys

Hey all, First and foremost, I would just like say thank you to each of you for taking me on as a member of 4our The experience from working with all of you was great, and i will take it with me wherever i go, and as for you guys i wish you luck in your further endeavors. You're all so enthusiastic and passionate about what you want to achieve and i tip my hat to you all. On another note i thought it would be appropriate to formally withdraw from the team of 4our. It is to me regret that i have to do this, and it makes me feel terrible and sad that i am leaving you in a mess, but i know you'll pick yourselves up. It's what you do best. As said before i thank you all for helping me with what you have and i wish you the best of the best of the BEST of luck and i know you will all blow them out of the park. Keep moving forward guys! -Chels.

cheers, Rhys

Well done team at todays meeting, I think it went very well. We gathered alot of information and found out that there is alot of work and ways in which we can help support the Dog's Refuge Home (Inc) WA. Posted below are just minutes for our team meeting after our formal meeting with Karen, Ruth and Sue. -Nicole
 * 15/04/09**

Oh and by the way, if anyone's mastered the wiki text editor then let me know. .
 * 14/04/09**

Hey fellas, I spent a bit of the afternoon creating the following: -Business Blog (yet to make a first post but will be doing so soon) -Business IM (instant messaging) address -Business Email signature line (i'll have to brief some of you on how to incorporate sigs into your email clients)
 * 14/04/09**

I could keep making online accounts all night but it seems smarter to just stick with a few and master them so we don't come across tacky and unprofessional to our client.

I also received an email back from Karen re: tomorrow's meeting (i'd emailed her to confirm and formally introduce us) and it turns out that we won't just be meeting with Karen, but also a PR representative from Shine Communications (PR agency) and the actual manager of the refuge.

I've chucked all our contact details including blog, email address and IM address at the top of this page.

Get pumped for tomorrow guys, i get the feeling it's going to be an important day ;-)

-Rhys

Hey team, just a reminder about our meeting with Karen tomorrow. Appropriate clothing as always, remember we are working with animals as they too are our clients. Below are some links to our previous meeting minutes if anyone is interested. Hope you all had a wonderful Easter, see you tomorrow morning. Chels I'm not able to borrow the car so we shall meet Rhys and Jenny at Cockburn station at no later than 9:15am. If you want to catch the train together you have my number =). -Nicole

Revised 25 Words
 * 10/4/09

'Public Relations throws you into a world of creative and influential decision making. Bridging business and publics, PR practitioners are the foundation of successful organisations.'

9/4/09 CHANGE YOUR 25 WORDS THIS VERY QUICKLY. Keith

7/04/09 25 words on why PR is the industry to be in. .** 'Because without us, George Bush would not have been president, people would make their own decisions, and the world would end as we know it.'

These are our letterhead and business cards:
 * 5/04/09**

As a team we have recently decided to change our group name from The Cucumber Consultants to 4our Communication Consultants, we believe our new name is a representation of us as a creative, professional and approachable PR group. Each member of our group has an equal distribution of work with each member being delegated different sections to produce for our business presentation on the 7th of April, 2009. 4our communication consultants received approval from The Dog's Refuge Home (WA) Inc. from Karen Rhodes Vice President and responsible for fund-raising and PR for The Dog's Refuge Home. We are looking forward to meeting and discussing our goals with her in the very near future.
 * 31/03/09**

Hey guys, an idea for a possible company name: Just a thought :-) Rhys
 * 26/03/09**
 * Artifex** (latin word for creative) could be by itself or with "Communications" or "PR" or "Relations" etc

This information is awesome. Thanks Nicole and Rhys you're work won't be forgotten. -Chels
 * 22/03/09**

Totally love what you've done with the page nicole! Rhys
 * 20/03/09**

The Dog's Refuge Home (WA) Inc, has been established since 1935; making it one of Australia's oldest animal welfare centres. The main outlook of this non-for-profit organisation is to rescue, care and re-house dog's in Perth. As well as caring for abandoned and lost dog's, this centre also offers obedience training and dog boarding, having the facilities to house 150 dogs at any one time. This organisation believes that dog's should be treated with the same care and respect as they give to us and should therefore be treated equally. The Dog's Refuge Home supports a no-kill policy, meaning that no dogs will be euthanised based on economic grounds. [|More information can be found here.]

19/03/09 Seeing as no other groups have taken advantage of the Shenton Park Dog refuge, I think that we can safely choose this as our NFP organisation. I will write the 250word brief in the morning, kinda tired.

Nicole

Hey guys, just reminding you that we need to choose a NFP organisation and prepare a brief summary based on there business profile. I still think we should look into the Shenton Park Dog Refuge (as Keith recommended), i just get the feeling that we would be able to actually help them out and make a difference. If anyone has any other ideas then let everyone know, if not i'll be confirming with you all that your fine with choosing the refuge and will be touching base with them soon.

Cheers, Rhys _
