Launching Graf-Martin Communications!
November 27, 2008 • No comments
Welcome to our world! I’m amazed at how quickly things have developed, and I’m pleased to officially announce to you the launch of Graf-Martin Communications! When I started in the book industry in 2000, I never imagined that I would one day have my own communications firm, but now I realize that it is simply the culmination of experiences throughout my lifetime.
I remember when ‘The Bungy Zone’ opened up in my hometown as a local specatcle and opportunity for thrill seekers. Whenever we drove past the towering bungy jumping bridge over the Nanaimo River I would crank my head out the car window to watch the jumpers with awe. While I don’t know if I could ever fall off that bridge alone, I might be able to do it if someone else joined me for the adventure. Sometimes when we’re thinking of stepping over the edge we need a little push, don’t we? Sometimes I need a big push, to be honest!
If I hadn’t been encouraged by a number of people to step out and take this opportunity, it most likely wouldn’t have happened. Many thanks to all those who encouraged and helped - far too many to mention! Many thanks to the huge efforts of Open Sky Designs - Melissa Alkema is a fantastic partner, and someone to get to know if you don’t already! Thank you to my enthusiastic husband, Dan, whose partnership in Graf-Martin Communications is critical. He is the ‘other half’ of the company - literally! Thanks to Dave Lewis and Baker Publishing Group - true partners from day one. We are honored to work with your excellent titles and authors.
We look forward to working with you in future months as we grow, expand, and look for new creative ways to communicate life-transforming messages across Canada. Feel free to contact us - and continue to check out our website! Feedback would be appreciated!
