A big thanks goes to everyone who
presented at the conference. I know how
much time it can take to put a presentation
together, and we all greatly appreciate the
chance to learn from your experiences.
driving industry. If you are involved in the pile driving industry, I
urge you to get involved with PDCA. I have found it to be one of
the most welcoming and fraternal organizations I belong to, and
what I have learned at PDCA has given me a significant advantage
in my business.
One opportunity I would like to point out, because it is so
underutilized, is how easy it is to get in the magazine. We offer, at
no cost, member profile articles and project spotlight articles. The
member profile highlights your company history and current work.
The project spotlight highlights an interesting or unusual pile driving
project your company has recently completed. These are free for
members, and best of all, if you don’t want to actually write it, that’s
okay! Our publisher, Lester Publications, will assign a writer to do a
phone interview and write the story, again at no cost to you or your
company. It’s a great way to get your company’s name and abilities
out to the estimated 10,000 readers of PileDriver magazine. You
can contact our publisher for more information or to get on the list
for an upcoming issue: Jill Harris, jharris@lesterpublications.com.
Have a great fall, and I hope to see you at DICEP in Portland
