• Shout out to Stuart Poe from Luis at Cirkul
  
  Hi Dawn - good afternoon - I need to do a shout out to Stuart Poe for his help in covering for Matt while on a very well-deserved vacation.   As is the case we had a fire drill on this week's Mexico move, and Stuart saved the day by providing timely docs for clearance.

Did You Know?

UNIQUE CO2 Update 

UNIQUE helps clients measure CO2 emissions by adding an automated data feed per shipment.

Do you or your clients find CO2 Emissions to be of importance?  Look no further, so does UNIQUE.  

Each time your client's cargo moves, UNIQUE has the ability to determine the CO2 usage for that shipment, and your clients can access this information. 

UNIQUE completed an integration with Ecotransit which makes this possible.  

For more information, please click on the button above for more detail on how you can access CO2 usage all from your desktop. 

UNIQUE Marketing Update 

The Marketing team continues to build name recognition across multiple industries including furniture companies.  Over the coming weeks, more marketing emails will be delivered to multiple industries.  

As always, if a client reaches out to you about an email, take that moment to turn it into a sales opportunity.  

UNIQUE CHANGE SQUAD (UCS) UPDATES

The Change Squad has been actively participating in numerous events over the past few months. The team was able to capture some fantastic pictures to share with all of us.

Whether its team members dedicating their time to walk and raise funds for the children at St. Jude Children's Hospital or lending a hand at food pantries, your efforts are truly making a positive impact on the lives of others around you.

What an incredible experience raising funds for St. Jude Children's Hospital! Please enjoy the photos below featuring participants from different branches walking and running in support of this wonderful cause.

Seeing the behind-the-scenes production of a show, can bring about examining how our interpersonal performance looks to others, even if its satire.

How we present our story to those we interact with does matter.
