All of us at Frause were so excited about starting a blog; we spent hours fighting over who would be responsible for the content. We drew straws, played rock paper scissors, even thumb wrestled for the honor. It turns out our interns have some strong thumbs (not to mention opinions). They also have the best opportunity to provide a “fly on the wall” look into the workings of Frause. Without further ado, we present Frause – through the eyes of our interns!

Client Party Brings Roof-Top Success

This last weekend was a busy but fun time for the Frause bunch. On Thursday we hosted our very own client party atop Touchstone’s very new and impressive West 8th property. I was excited to attend the successful event which included food (the ribs!), drinks, music and a whole lot of networking.

Despite the record setting heat (upwards of 100 degrees), the temperatures could not keep nearly 150 people from attending our popular roof-top party. Beer glasses were filled and business cards were dispersed against the dramatic backdrop of the Seattle skyline.

The event was also a great way for unfamiliar faces to become familiar. Our clients had the unique opportunity to meet each other one-on-one and broaden our inter-client relationships. Amy (our other beloved intern) also brought along a gaggle of PRSSA students who had the chance to experience professional networking first-hand.

Even though the summer air felt more like Phoenix than Seattle, the event was a huge success and a highlight of the PR social calendar.
