FedEx Office Steps “Out of Office” with New Blog
Site Will Feature Ideas and Tips for Creative Projects
DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--FedEx Office (formerly FedEx Kinko’s), a subsidiary of FedEx Corp.
(NYSE: FDX), today launched Out of Office, a blog designed to
provide unexpected ideas for creative projects at home and on the job.
Just in time for the busy holiday season, customers can turn to Out
of Office for a fresh perspective on how to use FedEx Office
products and services to plan parties, create quick and easy stocking
stuffers or homemade gifts, and more. Even past the holidays and
throughout the year, Out of Office will serve as a destination
for readers who like to see where their imaginations can take them when
they’re allowed to be “out of office.” The Out of Office blog is
located at http://outofoffice.fedex.com.
“This blog is a wonderful opportunity for the team at FedEx Office to
demonstrate the fun, creative and inspiring side of the company and our
products and services,” said Jenny Robertson, senior manager,
Marketplace Communications and Events for FedEx Office and a regular
contributor on Out of Office. “We also want to hear from our
customers about ways they have used our services. Our team members and
many customers tell us all the time that spiral binding isn’t just for
business meetings and a laminating machine has far more uses than
protecting a sign, worksheet or business policy. We’re excited to create
a place to exchange ideas for creative projects.”
In addition to Robertson, the blog is penned by a variety of regular
contributors within FedEx Office, as well as guest contributors from
around the FedEx family of companies. Topics that will be regularly
featured on Out of Office include:
-
Excellent Events: Projects and tips for planning creative and
stylish events – such as dinner parties, birthday celebrations and
even yard sales

“We hope readers will visit Out of Office again and again, to
find new ideas or share some of their own,” said Robertson. “Whether

third child, or thinking about starting a side business, this blog will
