February may be brief, but it was full of things to do and places to be. From networking, to Radiothon, to student engagement, here is just a taste of our packed schedule from last month.
Reaching out to MSU Students
Senior Account Executive Lauren Connor represented Franco at the ComArtSci Connect Career Fair at Michigan State University. She met with many students looking for internship opportunities at Franco. Apply for our internship program today!
Engaged with Youth Entrepreneurs
The future is filled with young entrepreneurs. Franco President Tina Kozak had a blast talking to Ms. Howey’s 4th grade students about leadership and marketing.
HOUR Gets FOX Features
From fashion to food, Account Supervisor Andrea Kenski and PR Coordinator Tracy Sanfilippo coordinated and attended TV segments for Hour Detroit. The bridal fashion WJBK segment showcased spring wedding trends…not to mention giving Franco future bride, Tracy, a few ideas for her June nuptials. The duo also coordinated a cooking segment at WMYD to promote the magazine’s 2019 Restaurant of the Year – Prime + Proper.
PRSA Detroit Fun
Senior Account Executive Megan Bonelli and Account Director Elizabeth Robbins-Sabourin enjoyed PRSA Detroit’s Social Media Strategies event. The pair enjoyed the panelists’ insights and had a great time networking.
24-Hour Radiothon Success
Franco team members: Jeff Sell, Andrea Kenski, Geoff Geist, Pat Adanti-Joy and Tracy Sanfilippo are an extension of The Salvation Army of Metro Detroit’s communications team which helps coordinate the multi-faceted fundraising event. The 24-hour Radiothon raised more than $1.5 million to provide meals and shelter to those in need throughout metro Detroit.

We happily welcomed students from the PRSSA Wayne State University chapter and the PRSSA Eastern Michigan University chapter to tour Franco and talk all things agency.
