Detroit Business Consulting Hosts Leadership Conference

The Midwest Leaders Conference was overflowing this year…literally! Offices from Michigan, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky and Toronto met in Troy, Michigan for a day full of learning and networking. The conference was tailored toward three main groups – those who were 8 weeks and under, 8 weeks and over and the administrative teams. Each group had 5 managers speak with them about their own experiences and offer words of advice to help them grow and advance quickly through the management training program. 

Michael Rosenberg closed the conference speaking about the expansion availability for the Midwest. “We have huge clients that are waiting for us to be ready to expand for them,” Michael explained.  “We’ve got to stay focused, apply what you have learned today, and put yourself in a position to be managing and running a campaign by the next time we again for an event.”

Following the conference, everyone went to a local bar and grille for a 301 darts tournament. There were 38 teams total in the single-elimination competition.  After hours of intense play, Robby Rech and Elizabeth Reichert from Detroit took home the trophy!  Now, Robby will already have his first trophy to take to his office when he opens up on his own campaign.

Detroit Business Consulting Celebrates Pink Week!

Detroit Business Consulting is celebrating Pink Week this week in support of breast cancer awareness. It's a tradition for our office to "pink out" our website, clothes, meeting rooms and even food once a year and to raise awareness for the cause. In comparison to all of the events that we do as an office, this is the personal favorite of our CEO, Michael Rosenberg. Michael explained, "I personally love pink week because it's a cause that so many people can get behind and support." Take a look at our website at www.DetroitBC.com to see how the website is decorated!

Detroit Business Consulting Attends Conference at Hard Rock Hotel

Detroit Business Consulting had a busy weekend in Chicago! We attended a regional management and leadership conference at the Hard Rock Hotel in downtown Chicago.  The meeting rooms were sleek and professional and great knowledge was shared. Managers Michael Rosenberg and Christian Swanson, as well as Director of Communications, Elizabeth Reichert, all spoke at the event.

One of the most exciting events of the day was Daniel Mooney's promotion to management at the end of the conference! Daniel spearheaded the Sprint campaign that was launched in April of this year and has accomplished all of the requirements to earn a management promotion. He's played a vital role in Detroit Business Consulting on many campaigns and has been the #1 sales representative in the nation for every campaign he's worked on. We are very excited for his next step into management.

In addition to the networking and learning that took place this weekend, there was also recognition that was given to two top-performing individuals at our firm. Nicole Lysak and Kallie Zardus received awards and recognition for their hard work they have devoted to the company and the positive example they set for our team. Nicole helped launch our charity team with Children International and Kallie recently transitioned from our sales and marketing team to our human resources team and has made such a impact on the company with her work there.  After receiving the award, Kallie said, "I was so surprised to win the award since it is usually given to someone in the sales and marketing team, but I'm very appreciative to receive that type of recognition from the company!"

Detroit Business Consulting attends a regional conference every three months.  The next conference for us is our management conference in Cancun, Mexico in November, and a conference in Australia in December for select managers. We are definitely looking forward to those!

Detroit Business Consulting Supports Adopt a Pet

Detroit Business Consulting participated in the 9th Annual Golf Scramble to support Adopt-A-Pet.  The scramble was last weekend at The Jewel of Grand Blanc.  The event raised funds to help with the medical costs of the animals.  The Adopt-A-Pet foundation is a non-profit animal organization that helps find loving homes for needy dogs and cats and provide medical care for them until a home is found. At Detroit Business Consulting, we have a lot of animal lovers that work here, so it  was a cause that we are very passionate about.  Detroit Business Consulting CEO stated, "I have a big heart for puppies and making sure they are taken care of, so I definitely wanted to make a contribution to this great organization.  No puppy should need a home.  I'm glad our team could help make a difference with the animals."

The golf scramble lasted all afternoon and our team took first place in the mixed 4-some division.  There was a 50/50 raffle, closest to the pin contest and longest drive contest too.  Our 4-some consisted of members from our own nonprofit division and the sales and marketing division.  They played through sunshine and rain last Saturday and had a phenomenal time golfing together while making a difference for a great organization.

Since we have so many golfers in the office, this will most likely be the first of many charity golf events we will be participating in this summer!

Detroit Business Consulting's Sales Team Launches New Campaign

 Detroit Business Consulting will be launching a new campaign next Monday at our office in Troy, Michigan! We sent part of our team to New York City this week to train on the new sales and marketing campaign.  Currently, our sales and marketing team works with Comcast Business Class, and our Nonprofit Department works on behalf of Children International.  This new campaign will require new marketing strategies on our end, since it utilizes wireless services through governmental programs.

This is the first time Detroit Business Consulting has done work involving a governmental program.  The past twelve months have been times of expansion for our privately owned marketing firm.  The first six years in business, we only did work on behalf of Fortune 100 and Fortune 500 companies.  Since April of last year, we have been able to retain our larger firms, add a nonprofit client, as well as this new client that we are launching on the 21st!

Detroit Business Consulting Promotes Christian Swanson to Assistant Management

We promoted our first assistant manager in our nonprofit division yesterday at Detroit Business Consulting! Christian Swanson was one of the original team members that helped pioneer this campaign in April of last year.  The campaign has grown exponentially since we launched it ten months ago.  In total, our office has been able to sponsor over 2,800 children around the world that live in poverty.  This is only the beginning of the nonprofit work we are getting involved with as a company.  Christian will develop into a management position with our company and continue to grow the charity division with us.

Christian's success can be attributed to a combination of leadership and work ethic.  Originally starting on a sales and marketing campaign with Detroit Business Consulting, Christian learned the basics of the business and how to work with customers.  After spending two weeks in New York City learning about Children International, Christian came back to Michigan and helped launch the campaign here.  Christian has been a strong example of leadership in the office, he has become an excellent trainer, and is known for his dependability.  We are proud of his accomplishments thus far and are very excited to see his next step with our company!

Detroit Business Consulting Celebrates 6 Year Anniversary!

Detroit Business Consulting will be celebrating its 6 year anniversary on October 27th!  Six years ago, the president of DBC, Michael Rosenberg, opened his sales and marketing firm, representing one Fortune 100 company.  Since then, Michael Rosenberg has been contracted with eight major clients and expanded his company's portfolio to include a charity division.  Throughout the years, he has received numerous awards and nominations both personally and professionally, including Promoting Owner of the Year, a Power 30 Under 30 Nomination, and his company was named a Top Workplace in Metro Detroit in 2011 and 2012.

When asked what he is most excited about for the upcoming year, Michael elaborated on the growth that is on track for the charity campaign with Children International and Comcast Business Class.  "These are two major clients that we have built a strong partnership with," Michael explained.  "The charity division allows us to make a difference with our work on an international level on a daily basis, and provide a business opportunity with growth for the team we have working at our Troy office."  Michael also spoke positively about the team of people working at Detroit Business Consulting and the growth he sees for them in 2014.  "We have international expansions happening, especially with the Australia market that just opened, and we are going to capitalize on these business opportunities."

The team at Detroit Business Consulting will be celebrating the 6 year mark on Monday night at Hamlin Corner in Royal Oak.  Everyone is welcome to attend!
