Behind the Scenes with Jackson Spalding

Most people stop thinking about work on a Friday night. However, Jackson Spalding team members know that news opportunities often strike after hours, requiring fast action on the “fly.”

During the 2007 American League Division Series, JS team member Ashlee Stubits watched from home as swarms of tiny bugs infested the baseball field, making it difficult for the Cleveland Indians and New York Yankees to play their game. Seeing a unique opportunity for pest control giant Orkin, Inc. (our client), Ashlee began making calls.

With a pitch in mind and an Orkin expert available, Ashlee contacted the Associated Press New York Bureau to gauge their interest and then connected with the New York Post within 30 minutes of seeing the problem on the field. From there, the coverage spread like wildfire.
