Arizona Marketing Firm, Off Madison Ave, Prescribes Hotline Use Before Crisis Hits
Phoenix, Arizona (PRWeb) November 30, 2006 -- Off Madison Ave, a fast-growing integrated marketing communications firm, announced today the launch of its 24-hour “ER-PR” crisis communications hotline at 1-888-OMA-ER-PR (662-3777) to help existing and prospective clients navigate the often-turbulent paths of crisis and issues management right when the iron’s hot.
When confronted with delicate and complicated internal or external business communications matters, companies can turn to the agency’s “ER-PR” hotline at any hour should an issue erupt that requires immediate attention and press management. As well, many of the communications strategies and tactics that a company requires when responding to an issue or crisis can be prepared in advance, therefore interested companies also can learn more by accessing the crisis team via email or visiting the Off Madison Ave Web site and clicking on the “ER-PR” red light found on the home page.
“At the time of a crisis, usually the first responder is the press who ultimately shape the story and deliver a company’s news,” said Laura Hall, director of public relations at Off Madison Ave. “We believe there is nothing more risky nor detrimental to a company than not being prepared for the worst, which is why we’ve created not only a comprehensive, fully customizable preparedness program but an urgent response system to help companies when they need it the most.”
Along with being a top advertising agency in Arizona, Off Madison Ave has built a reputation as one of the leading public relations and consulting firms in Arizona.

Junior Golf Clubs- What To Do?
30 years ago there weren?t too many sets of real junior golf clubs to be found, and there weren?t that many people buying components and making their own clubs either. I found a person who did make clubs and had some old ones cut down for my two kids. My son must have been barely 3 years old, and his 9 iron didn?t show much of the metal shaft: it was all grip! The head was extremely heavy, and he couldn?t really swing the club, he sort of picked it up and hacked down at the ball like the club was an axe! The kids both had fun, however, and they always lit up when I suggested going to the driving range to hit balls. These days parents have many more options, and they can find decent junior golf clubs at surprisingly reasonable prices.
The Junior Set Of Golf Clubs
Many manufacturers make golf clubs for juniors. Nike, Ping, Taylor Made and Accu-Length. If a child wants to learn the game of golf, it is best to start with the proper set of golf clubs. The proper golf clubs will make it easier to develop a stance, posture and swing to enjoy the game. Practicing with the clubs on a driving range with some type of instruction is going to be the best way to become accustom to the golf clubs before actually playing a round of nine holes. It is wise to start with nine holes verse eighteen holes until, the child starts to show improvement in the game.
