Here’s the skinny.

We may never see a political phenomenon like Donald Trump again. That’s because no one has ever pursued the presidency who was able to combine a self-professed business acumen with lofty reality TV show ratings and the ability to out-talk, if not out-think, everyone else in the room.
Let me ask you a question, and I need an honest answer.
When is the last time you had new content on your company’s website? It could be a blog post, client success story, new company service or something else entirely.
If the answer is “several months” or, worse yet, “I’m not sure,” then it’s time to freshen up your website with new content.
Joel and Sara Jo Rubin have been married for 35 years and during most of it they have worked together running what is today Rubin Communications Group. All these years later, we’re still going strong!
My, where has the time gone?
Wall Einhorn and Chernitzer (WEC) is well known in Virginia as one of the “best places to work.”
Both Inside Business and Virginia Business magazines have honored the Norfolk accounting firm many times.
For this year’s contest, WEC, for whom we have provided a host of creative public relations services, asked us to produce a video describing why it is such a fine employer.

The year Jim Spore arrived in Virginia Beach from Garland, Texas was when I left WAVY TV to start what is now Rubin Communications Group.
Jim was 47, I was 38 in 1991, but it wasn’t long before our paths crossed. One of his first major assignments was the 76-mile Lake Gaston pipeline, a project that had begun nine years earlier and would cost, when finally completed, $150 million.
Fall has arrived, which means it’s time to trade your summer apparel for jeans and sweaters. Whether you are into the Halloween spirit, look to enjoy the fall weather with live music and food or want to dive into some arts and crafts, there’s always something going on.
Here at Rubin Communications Group, we also slow down to enjoy the beauty of the fall season. We asked our staff to share their favorite fall events.
