College Friday 2011

Monday, April 18th, 2011

College Friday is the day designated to raise awareness about the importance of higher education for Colorado’s youth. (http://www.collegeincolorado.org/)

Here at InLine Media- we all feel that higher education is deeply important and we support College Friday immensely. We have participated for many years and we plan to keep on with our participation to hopefully encourage young children, teens and adults to continue on in the educational field.

We encourage all to participate because it is so much fun. Plus it adds a new twist to CASUAL FRIDAY which we know EVERYONE waits for each week. Take a peak at our team in action on College Friday- and hopefully next year there will be many more participating!

2011 NCAA Bracket Results

Wednesday, April 13th, 2011

Well- the time has come to announce the results of the  2011 NCAA Bracket.

InLine Media had quite the competion going amongst one another. As Mark was upset instantly when Kentucky won in the first round, and Amy crossed her fingers as they went to the final four- but flopped at the end. Our office was in a mix of emotions as some followed daily, and others just simply did not care.

We were all highly surprised by ILM’s winners! Our final winner’s were surprisingly none of our die hard fans!  (#1) Meredith Rogers, our one and only Baileys MOM!  (#2) Ethan hernandez- Marks son was lucky to hit #2 in the bracket- although dad said he did not pay so we all still wonder if Ethan ever received his prize…hmmmmm….. and finally (#3) Amy pushed through as Ketucky went further than expected.

CONGRATS TO ALL OF OUR WINNERS!!!

Backpacking Europe

Friday, July 16th, 2010

In 12 days I will be in Bonn, Germany at the start of a one in a lifetime trip. While I’m still young and broke, I will be meeting up with a good friend from high school and 6 other Sconnie’s to do a 3 week 5 country backpacking trip around Europe. I’m flying into Dusseldorf, Germany where the friends studying abroad will pick up my jetlagged self, and lug me back to their apartments in Bonn. There we will spend 2 days being show the town. On Friday, we’ll be heading to Amsterdam for a free tour of the Heineken Brewery, and anything else that sounds appealing to us. Throughout the trip we’ll be staying in Hostel and a few houses with family friends of the group. From Amsterdam we’ll be going by train to Copenhagen, Denmark. On the August 8th we will be taking a short flight to Geneva, Switzerland to mix up the language and learn some French (I only know how to count). We will be meeting up with some family on the other side of Lake Geneva in Vevey, Switzerland. After another smaller town in Switzerland, we’ll be hitting the prime Italy spots, Venice, Florence, and Rome. I’m flying back to Colorado the Sunday before school starts. What a way to start my 5th semester of college…

As an aside, I’d like to thank everyone at Inline Media for teaching me the industry and showing me the ropes of media buying, consulting, and researching at its finest. It’s been a learning experience and super fun. You are all welcome to come visit me in Fort Collins, and I will definitely stop by if I’m in the area. Keep in touch and if you ever need a college students perspective or help promoting anything in Fort Collins do not hesitate to call. :)

Introducing…. Sconnie #3

Wednesday, June 9th, 2010

As the newest member of Inline Media, I’m proud to say there’s yet another Wisconsinite in the group. My name is Kaitlyn and I’m going to be going into my Junior Year at Colorado State this fall. I’m a Business Marketing Major with minors in theatre and music. Future plans? TBD. I still have two years to figure it out. I’m grateful for my opportunity to experience media in this form, and also to be exposed to other forms like creative, sales, and advertising. Inline has made me more aware of commericals, stations, and the different forms of media and how to find out what works best in a market I’ve never even heard about.

The goal of my internship is to learn everything about Inline Media, consulting, buying, planning, advising, and of course the office work. So, far only being here three weeks, I feel I’ve picked up on some of the lingo and habits of the office. For instance, I was never one big on T.V. watching, but I have gotten into GLEE, NCIS, and well I only get basic cable let’s not get too crazy. However, my knowledge in the programs Inline uses and excel has increased greatly, and I feel more confident in my abilities as the days progress.

After my internship, I will be spending three weeks traveling around Germany, Denmark, Switzerland, and Italy. A college students dream, and burden. I mean if I’m going to be broke, I might as well be really broke. I also plan to study abroad in New Zealand the Spring of ‘11.

If only for the summer, I hope to provide some relief, so everyone can have a relaxed summer. My first Colorado summer, bring on the sunshine!

SERVING THE COMMUNITY

Tuesday, April 6th, 2010

InLine Media is always searching for the perfect opportunity to help others in need. The experience has brought us an over whelming reality of those in need and how grateful we are blessed.

In the past we have served at the Ronald McDonald House serving breakfast to families going through difficult times due to an illness of a child.

The US Post Office Secret Santa Program granting the wishes of many children at Christmas.

The 5th Annual PJ Day in support of Denver’s Road Home. Denver’s Road Home is Mayor Hickenlooper and the community’s 10 year Plan to end homelessness.

For the past three years we have been volunteering our time at St Clare’s Ministries, serving dinner to the homeless every fifth Tuesday of the month.

It has brought us closer as a team and we experience the joy we bring to others who appreciate a hot meal and a smile.

We are just making a small dent in the community, but we are grateful for the opportunity.

It’s MADNESS

Tuesday, March 23rd, 2010

Here at InLine Media, we are participating in the NCAA Basketball Tournament, and it has been an exciting experience for some and more painful for others. Last year’s champion, Nancy Haven, has once again brought her “bracketology” expertise, and has done well so far in 2010.

This year we have a total of 18 brackets that include many slashes of red pen and brilliance in yellow highlighter. More often than not, upsets are prevalent and buzzer beaters are inevitable. This year is not any different.

#1 seed Kansas lost to Northern Iowa and the shredding of brackets began throughout the nation. Sadly, InLine was victim to that shredding as well. With the Jayhawks failure, the mighty red pen had an 8 hour work day at InLine come Monday. Out of the 18 brackets, 10 chose Kansas to win it all!

The Sweet 16 debuts Thursday and Friday, so stay tuned to watch the madness unfold!

Pajama Day!

Thursday, January 28th, 2010


We are dressing down for a good cause today! InLine Media is participating in the 5th Annual PJ Day in support of Denver’s Road Home. Denver’s Road Home is Mayor Hickenlooper and our community’s 10-year plan to end homelessness.

While we get to be comfy cozy in jammies and slippers, our entire office has donated to Denver’s Road Home. We learned that PJ Day donations have helped prevent over 2,000 people from becoming homeless and since 2005 chronic homelessness has decreased by 36%! As you probably know, we are located on the 16th Street Mall and panhandling on the mall has decreased by 92%!

We are happy to support Denver’s Road Home!
