The Simon Group has been appointed agency of record for Elsys Instruments to implement a new public relations campaign in the U.S. to help continue the global expansion of the 30-year-old company. Elsys Instruments is the U.S. headquarters of Switzerland-based Elsys AG, a leading manufacturer of custom and standard fast, high-precision data acquisition systems.
“When we decided to look for an agency to coordinate our PR campaign, my first thought was The Simon Group,” said Klaas Vogel, Sales Manager of Elsys Instruments. “Having successfully worked with them while with a different company, I knew The Simon Group would deliver a comprehensive, well-managed program with consistently high results. The proven PR methods at The Simon Group are sure to get our company where we want, and need, to be.”

Thanks to everyone who made this year’s BBQ a huge success. With over 150 guests and nice weather, The Simon Group and Rhythm Eggs rocked in the fall season with 20+ performers, including Groupies, friends, reps and clients taking us back to the 1960s and over to London with the werewolves. The rain stayed away long enough to let the Groupies enchant the crowd with their version of R.O.C.K. Sellersville, PA… complete with kazoos!
Kids covered the driveway in sidewalk chalk, glittered their art projects (and themselves), played in the moonbounce and tested their skills at football, volleyball and baseball. Thanks again to the caricaturists for their wonderful creations. Don’t forget to ask someone about their Simon Group ink… devil heart temporary tattoos complete with The Simon Group’s signature “S” could be seen on more than just the kids!
Meet us on Facebook (The Simon Group, Inc.) to see pictures of the band, performers and the rest of the crowd at the Fabulous Fall BBQ last Saturday. You can also check out videos of some of the performances!
We hope to see you all again next year!

One thing we pride ourselves on is our “business as unusual” philosophy. Each client’s business is unique and should be treated as such…far too often this is forgotten in the agency world.
Through our internship program, started in January 2008, we are educating the next crop of marketing and PR professionals on this way of thinking so they can better implement marketing strategies and grow business more effectively.
The added benefit? To date, we have gained the insight and support of seven promising interns from many local universities and as far away as Rochester Institute of Technology. They have helped to streamline processes and improve efficiency here at The Simon Group. In return, they are learning valuable industry tips and gaining experience in the B-to-B marcom world to help prepare them for their careers in this fascinating business.
If you know anyone in our area that could be interested in applying for an internship in PR or media/marketing (Summer, Fall or Spring semesters), have them send us their resume and cover letter to publicrelations@simongroup.com for us to consider. We’re always looking for the best and brightest!
