The Facts
In this day and age, the safety of our children is everyone’s concern. The need has never been greater to protect our children. Each year 750,000 children are reported missing. The United States Department of Justice released a study reporting that a child is missing every 37 seconds, 59% are 15 to 17 years old, and 41% are younger children. These statistics are shocking.

Community Events is working hard to change this trend.
 

Community Events, Inc. is an event based promotional company that works with the community to create awareness and revenue for charitable and non profit organizations for children. Our clients deal with issues of child safety and promote the preventative measures parents can take to educate their children about dangers they face in today’s society. Child Safety, D.A.R.E America, U.S Marines Corps Toys for Tots and Child Watchare some of our clients.

What does your company do?
We provide grassroots Public Relations for our clients at local retail venues, schools, festivals and fairs. We help to provide a personalized approach for our clients in a way that is far more effective than traditional advertising done through television and radio messages. We inform, educate, promote, and serve on behalf of our clients in order to provide them with increased revenues (to continue local and national efforts) and awareness of the causes that they stand behind. Promotional buzz is created through handing out fliers and other literature, offerings of Child ID Cards sponsored by our clients for the children in our communities, free fingerprinting sessions and toy drives for local children in the Christmas season.

Is there Door to Door Sales or telemarketing involved?
There is absolutely no door to door or telemarketing efforts involved in Community Event’s Marketing strategies.

Why Are you Looking for people?
Event based marketing is truly the future for the Marketing world. Traditional forms of advertising such as T.V , Radio and print are becoming more and more obsolete as media messages saturate the market and prices continue to rise. Promotional events have much more flexibility in the messages and services that can be provided to the public. Not to mention it is far more cost effective!

The more success we have with our current clients the bigger and better clients we will attract in the future. Community Events is currently in a state of expansion due to increased demands from our clients for wider spread exposure. Promotional reps, account reps, and Managers are needed to keep up with the explosion.

What are You Looking for in a candidate?
The biggest challenge for our company right now is finding the right candidate. Although we have had an overwhelming response to our recruitment efforts, not everyone is cut out for this type of program. Because of the out of the box thinking that is necessary in this industry, previous management, PR, Marketing or sales does not necessarily translate to more value for our organization. We typically focus on key characteristics.

1) People Skills. A candidate who is comfortable dealing with people in a marketing, promotional sales or leadership capacity is ideal.

2) Willingness to learn. Our business is a learned industry in a results driven and competitive environment. Very few people join our organization with all the skills necessary to succeed in this industry. It is crucial that our candidates learn and develop new skills quickly.

3) Ambition. We are looking for someone who wants more than a weekly paycheck. You must be willing to learn and have a strong desire to grow within a career.

4) Responsible and Accountable. We are looking for candidates that continue to make a commitment for excellence personally as well professionally. We pride ourselves that we only promote within.

5) Positive and Dynamic Personality. At Community Events we work as a team in a fast paced and constantly changing environment. It is essential that our employees are team players with positive and ambitious personalities.
