HAVE YOU JUST READ ABOUT US IN CRAIN’S?
Crain's Chicago Business has a great article in this week's issue about blogs and business. In the article, they profile Zapwater's blog.
The Zapwater Blog has gone a long way in communicating the depth and diversity of our client roster and what a great place Zapwater is to work. Yes, Zapwater has a booming hospitality and lifestyle practice. But most people don't know we also have equally booming corporate and public affairs practices.
Why a Blog?
This Blog enables us to share experiences, talk about trends and to both praise and critique our industry. We've blogged from such great events as The Sundance Film Festival and The Kanye West Foundation Event at the Hotel Sax. But because our client roster is so diverse, we are likely to also be blogging about topics such as the Farm Bill debate in Congress or the first flight of Airbus 380.
