Solano Economic Development Corporation retains public relations firm to support its marketing campaign

Earl Parker and Associates has been retained by the Solano County Economic Development Corporation to conduct public relations and marketing to support the organization’s mission.

“We are extremely pleased to bring Earl Parker on board,” Michael Ammann, EDC president said. “We have reached the point in our overall marketing strategy where we need the services of someone with strong public relations experience.”

Parker recently retired from the City of Vacaville—a position he held for eight years. Prior to that he owned a weekly newspaper in the Sacramento area, served as a public relations consultant, was the press secretary for the Lt. Governor or the State of California and was employed major corporations.

“With such a varied background in government, private sector and management Earl Parker will be a great benefit in our efforts to keep Solano County’s economic development moving forward on a fast track,” Ammann said.

Parker said he looks forward to his relationship with EDC as “…a great opportunity to support EDC in its critical role to help provide good jobs and a solid tax base that will keep our cities and country strong.

“The importance of EDC cannot be overemphasized. It works continually to spread the good work about Solano County and keep the doors open for the kind of dialog that results in businesses coming here.”
