Expanding to Philly!

It's very exciting to work in a company that is successful and growing, but it's even more exciting to work at a company that is successful enough to expand into new markets as well! We are proud to announce that we are finalizing our expansion to Philadelphia and will be ready to open in July! This is the thirteenth market Detroit Business Consulting has expanded to since opening in 2007. Our current assistant manager, Krystal will be heading up the campaign in Philly. She will focus on finishing her management training throughout the rest of June and will also be going to Nashville for more management training at the end of the month. We are excited for this new chapter of the company!

DBC Supports the Mutt March

We have another charity event in the works! Our company will be participating in the Michigan Humane Society's Mutt March next Sunday, June 5th. The march starts at 8:00 a.m. at Edsel & Eleanor Ford House in Grosse Pointe. The Michigan Humane Society helps care for over 100,000 animals each year, so this event will help raise money and awareness for their cause.


Our company has been advertising the event for a few weeks, so some people are making donations while others are walking with their pets. For more information about the event, see Tarryn in Human Resources since she is in charge of this charity event for our company. Be sure to check out our philanthropy page to see our other charity events!

Boston Trip!

We are happy to have Mike and Ryan back from Boston. They headed there on Saturday and returned last night. While they were there, they went to a leadership conference, spent time with other sales and marketing owners to learn from them, and they were also treated to a baseball game at Fenway Park! The trip was a reward for  Ryan since he has been going above and beyond in the office. He has exceptional leadership skills that this conference helped sharpen. We are excited to see big things happen for him in the future!

Tigers Game!

We love people who work hard, and we love rewarding them for doing so! Last Thursday the Tigers played the Mariners and DBC was there to support! It was a one o’clock game and the managers reserved a suite for us to watch the game, enjoy the catered food, and socialize on a Thursday afternoon. The suite had indoor seating and private outdoor seating, as well as an endless buffet of food!

The Tigers game was only the beginning to a weekend full of activities! We had our NFL Draft Party on Thursday evening, a golf event on Saturday, a trip to the zoo, and a charity event on Sunday for Karmanos Cancer Institute in Detroit.

We always have different events going on with our company that give us a chance to get together outside of work. The managers promote a merit-based system, so they are constantly finding new and creative ways to reward people for doing well.

Our Creative Office Night!

Eric came up with a really creative idea for office night last week- pottery painting! We went to downtown Royal Oak last week to the Creative Arts Studio on W. Fourth Street and painted our own pieces of pottery. We each chose the piece that we wanted to decorate, these ranged from coffee mugs, to piggy banks and unique mosaics, and got to work decorating them!

Our pottery painting evening was so fun because it was something different that most of us had never done before! Typical office nights for us include going bowling, karaoke, the hat game, sand volleyball, a movie night, or doing some sort of event for a particular holiday or celebration.

We get to pick up our pieces of pottery this Thursday!

The 2011 Masters Tournament- DBC is There!

Our manager, Mike, is in Augusta, Georgia this week for the 2011 Masters Golf Tournament! He took both assistant managers and another top account representative to spend some time learning from a National Consultant in Atlanta, and then they headed to Augusta for the golf tournament.

Everyone except Mike will be returning to Michigan on Saturday, but Mike will be heading to England for a week instead. The people chosen for this trip are top performers and leaders in the office, and they have worked hard to deserve such a reward. We are looking forward to having everyone back in the office in a week!

Growing and Expanding!

We have out-grown our current location and are moving across the street! With our ever-growing client base and sales department, we were needing more office space to fit the needs of our clients.

Starting on March 14, 2011, our new address will be 100 E. Big Beaver Rd. Troy, MI 48083. We will be in the old AT&T building on Big Beaver next to Kona Grill.
