TEMPE, Ariz., June 28, 2011 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ — With a combined 30 years of general construction experience in the greater Phoenix Metropolitan and Northern and Southern Arizona Markets, OneSource Development© is pleased to announce the expansion of their organization as the company embarks and advances a massive expansion of their services by developing a “One Source” shop for all general construction needs.

“I believe OneSource is innovating the industry. Many customers, whether they are redesigning their kitchens or building out a commercial location can get frustrated working with a volume of vendors, designers, material sourcing companies, architects, etc.,” said Brandan Millan, co-founder and owner of OneSource Development. “Our customers are extremely satisfied how streamlined we have made the daunting task of construction. The fact we are able to design, layout, provide 3D renderings, consult on material choices and fabricate granite or cabinetry in-house not only saves our customers money, but time, and everyone in construction knows the priority of their customers wanting to save time,” he continued.

“OneSource managed my construction project from beginning to end. The project manager was easy to get a hold of and the entire process was streamlined and simplified by being able to e-mail and text them and get an immediate response. It was unlike any other construction process I have been involved in,” said Natasha Nelson, owner of Yogurtini, a fast growing national self-serve frozen yogurt company. “I would trust OneSource with any of my future projects. They were absolutely incomparable. They were the most efficient and quickest construction company I have ever worked with,” she continued.

True Food For Dogs

TRUE FOOD FOR DOGS ANNOUNCES OPENING OF FIRST
“DOG KITCHEN” OF ITS KIND

New Commercial Kitchen Located in Orange County, CA Uses Only FDA and USDA Grade Ingredients Certified For Humans, But For Dogs

Newport Beach, CA (Jan. 7, 2011)- True Food For Dogs, the highly anticipated brand, online store, commercial “dog kitchen”, and retail store in Orange County, California announced today both the opening of its Newport Beach retail location and the start of it’s local delivery service beginning Saturday, Jan. 8, 2011.

“I think the big buzz around the opening of True is because the commercial dog food business in 2009 in the U.S. was between $11-$14 billion dollars. That means we are spending a lot to feed our dogs but our options have been somewhat limited to off the shelf kibble. People are spending more because there is an increased understanding of what ingredients are actually allowed in the food we feed our dogs,” said Shawn Buckley, co-founder and owner of True. “ It might sound cliché but most people consider their pet part of the family and they should really have a better option to feed them the best food for their health. That was the entire goal in the creation of True”, he continued.

True Food For Dogs’ commercial kitchen and bakery was created with the sole purpose of making food for dogs using only FDA and USDA approved ingredients including meat, fruits, vegetables, whole grains and vitamin supplement blends that are all 100% certified for human consumption. Entrees range from restaurant quality beef and russet potatoes to turkey and whole wheat macaroni; baked offerings include peanut butter and pumpkin treats. These homemade recipes were created and approved by a certified nutritionist, tested by labs for nutritional content, and taste tested by K-9s and humans alike.

“As a dietary nutritionist I have a unique perspective on how food intake affects humans and how it also directly affects our pets. Just like people, a dog’s system can be affected positively or negatively by the food they eat. When you look at food most dogs eat you can see the problems that can happen like becoming overweight or acquiring a food allergy due to poor manufacturing processes and ingredients. It is paramount that dogs have the most nutritious meals they can get. I have been shocked and surprised to learn what is allowed and accepted in the manufactured dog food arena. I have a great passion to educate people that there will definitely be a big difference in their dog’s health and longevity by making a change in food you provide for your dog, said Denise O’Neil, certified nutritionist. “It is really exciting to be a part of the True team and to have been able to work alongside their chef and cooks to create the most nutritious food for dogs we think is possible,” she continued.

True Food For Dogs is cooked fresh at the dog kitchen in Newport Beach, CA, vacuum-sealed, chilled and immediately frozen so no nourishment is lost in the process. True Food for Dogs’ products can be shipped frozen to your door everywhere in the US, picked up at the retail kitchen, or hand delivered to most coastal Orange County areas. True product offerings also include True treats for dogs as well as a line of premium supplements.

We are proud to announce our latest client, True Food For Dogs.

True Food For Dogs has one, primary objective - to increase the quality and length of life for as many dogs as possible. We believe True Food for Dogs is quite simply the very best food for dogs in the world and we want your dog to have the advantages that come with using only USDA/FDA certified, for human consumption ingredients in our healthy homemade recipes.

Keep an eye out for the grand opening of their new location on Pacific Coast Highway in Newport Beach and more news from the company on their site!

Broadcast PR is something not understood by many PR people. I had the lucky chance to start my career working for three former tv producers for KTLA, Los Angeles. We shot video, wrote scripts, edited and produced packages for our clients. Every day we would receive a report detailing where our stories ran. The days of packaged PR stories for the news are a lot different than they were a few years ago and PR professionals must stay up to date on how newsrooms get their information.

Clients of mine often want broadcast publicity. What do you do for a client who specifically wants broadcast PR in Orange County? Obviously you can reach out to the larger Los Angeles TV newsrooms, but we have a gem in our own backyard that reaches only OC. Daybreak OC on cable channel KDOC airs every morning covering news and interests around Orange County. Check it out one morning, it is actually a really good news program and being an OC resident, I enjoy the local stories. Below is one of my clients on Daybreak OC just last week.

If you would like NN Public Relations to help you with your broadcast PR strategy, give us a call!

Did you see it? Saw it and loved it. Did you also notice all the product placement and name brand mentions within the dialogue? The stand-out to me was the website Bag, Borrow or Steal, a site where members can borrow a designer bag or jewelry. I am sure they are hoping to land the same success Sarah Jessica Parker brought to the pricey Manolo Blahniks brand. I am going to guess this was a good move for them.

Client Silver Cross Baby had huge success after it’s appearance on Sex and the City! Sarah Jessica Parker was also seen pushing her Silver Cross around New York. These appearances were priceless to the brand. If you are looking to get strategic with your brand and put it in the hands of Hollywood, give Orange County’s NN Public Relations a call.
