FROM THE INTERIM CHAIRMAN 
Hi all. Welcome to the October edition of the Chairmen's RoundTable newsletter! As the fall comes into full swing, there are a couple of events occurring that we'd love for you to put on your calendar. First, The SoCal Alliance of Mergers and Acquisition Advisors & Private Capital Markets will be holding its "Business Launchpad: Leveraging Resources" conference on Friday, October 21 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Carlsbad Sheraton Hotel. This is a major Southern California Symposium for middle market business owners to listen and share ideas from the region's fastest growing and most successful business owners and executives. They deserve our support not only because they're a great organization, but also one that will be helping to co-market one of our own events in the not too distant future.
Also, save the date for our own CRT Fall Social from 6 to 9 p.m. on Saturday November 12. We'll be looking to raise a few bucks for Cal State University San Marcos' College of Business Administration at the bash. Details will follow shortly, so be on the lookout for an official email invite soon! Lastly, keep a sharp eye out for new clients as we look to fill the pipeline for the remainder of this year and into 2012! Contact Alan Creutz about any prospects! Also don't forget that we're always in search of good content for our blog, so let David Oates know if you've got something you'd like to share. As always, I welcome your feedback. Thanks so very much for being an active member of CRT! My best, JEFF CAMPBELL |

SUGGESTED READING Submitted by CRT Sponsor, David B. Oates So it shouldn't come as any surprise that the stunt they pulled on behalf of their client, ConAgra Foods, backfired, as reported in the New York Times. True the same tactic has been used with great success when consumers are the subject, but most reporters would feel false or misleading pretenses that got them to cover a story in a much different light. I know hindsight is 20/20, but in this case, it was something Ketchum should have figured out by asking themselves if they would have tried to lure traditional journalists the same way. I'm sure the answer would have been "Absolutely Not." Top bloggers are no different. Not sure what I'm talking about? Read the article below and see if you don't have the same "No Duh" reaction to the public relations business unit of Omnicom Group.
