(Carmel and Fishers, Ind., May 19, 2020) – OneZone, the Chamber of Commerce for Fishers and Carmel, Ind., and Ascend Indiana, the talent and workforce development initiative of the Central Indiana Corporate Partnership, are announcing a collaboration to help college students find jobs – and employers to find talent – during these challenging times.  

OneZone is offering their employer members an opportunity to join the Ascend Network, a software platform and team of recruiters that connect students and recent graduates with an associate degree, bachelor’s degree or certificate to Indiana jobs and internships.  

“Hamilton County remains a great place to work, and as employers prepare for the impending workforce recovery, we want to make sure they have all the tools necessary to meet their employment needs, and that includes having available early-in-career talent. Our member, Ascend Indiana, is helping us to do that,” said Jack Russell, interim president, OneZone. 

To participate, OneZone members can submit information through a short form on the OneZone website: onezonecommerce.com. Employers will then be connected to Ascend to begin the process of sharing their open jobs and internships with students and recent graduates. 
“While employers and students are facing unprecedented challenges, the Ascend Network is a unique approach to aligning talent with opportunities in the region, now and in the future,” said Jason Kloth, president and CEO, Ascend Indiana. “Students from 27 Indiana higher education institutions have joined the Network, and they have submitted 13,000 applications to employers for open positions.” 

OneZone is hoping to register more than 25 employer members by the end of the year.

Guiding Principles: Value-Based Marketing and Diagnostic Selling
We implement this by insisting that we always provide the user with something of true stand-alone value before we ever attempt to move forward with any sales-like gesture. The key here is to make sure the value-offer is truly beneficial to the consumer without any further engagement. This approach seems counter-intuitive to some, but there's a reason this methodology consistently produces two, three, and four times the average return on ad spend across campaigns worldwide.

Creating True "Stand-Alone" Value
Duckworth Design is a web design & development agency with a general love for digital marketing and online advertising. We are strongly guided by the principles of value-based marketing and diagnostic discovery before prescriptive selling. These ethical advertising methods are used within ours and our clients' websites and digital marketing campaigns.

Why Value Always Wins
The reason is a bit of a cliche: people really do buy from people they know, like, and trust. What creates more familiarity, likability, and trustworthiness at the very beginning of an advertisement? A campaign from a computer-repair company that only ever brags about being "The Best/Cheapest in Town" or a campaign from that same company with a downloadable PDF that gives you "12 Things to Check Before You Get Your Computer Serviced or Repaired." Our vote is in. Value always wins.

​Why We Should Be Focusing on Creating Value in Our Advertising
​This guiding principle is becoming more crucial than ever. Selling ethically and working to properly aid and serve your potential customers before money ever enters the conversation will create room for more loyal, engaged, and satisfied clientele. So when you're marketing and having sales conversations during this global crisis, practice empathy and aim first to help the other person. Help them discover if they need your product or service. If not, assist them by pointing them in the direction of other resources, people, or ideas that can ultimately end their struggle—market how you'd like to be marketed to. Sell how you'd like to be sold to.

Clinicians at Aspire Indiana Health were hearing from the community that it has been difficult for truck drivers to get annual physicals needed for their Commercial Driver's License during the COVID-19 Shelter-in-Place order. Physical exams may be considered a non-essential medical appointment by some family physicians. Recognizing that truck drivers are essential workers and among our pandemic heroes, Aspire's Primary Care clinics want to make CDL renewal easier to accomplish.

Aspire's Carmel clinic is located at 679 Pro-Med Lane, just off Meridian/SR31. Their Lebanon clinic at 1600 West Main Street is located conveniently off of I65 and SR32. Both locations are prepared to make face-to-face appointments for physicals. They accept Medicare, Medicaid, and most private insurance. Call the direct line for the location nearest you to arrange an appointment:  Carmel - 317-574-0055, Lebanon - 765-482-7100.
