January 2023 Updates

Please enjoy this picture of a toilet design from the 1906 Plumbing supply catalog, published for George H Tay, Co., in San Francisco (US). This one is called a taco toilet!

We hope your new year has started peacefully and positively! We at FLUSH have been hard at work - we're changing our business offerings a bit this year. Check out our updates to new work, blogs, and some of our new business plans below. And let us know what you think!

We toured Alcatraz Island recently and saw the large space toilets took in prison cells. It put us on a journey to answer - what are sanitation systems like in US prisons today? Check out our blog exploring this.

Pilot Trainings with You?

We want to pilot our trainings, and are looking for colleagues interested in learning communication basics and/or meaningful storytelling/messaging.

Are you interested?

You get a really affordable 4-week training (likely in Q2 2023), give us feedback, and probably engage in some fun chats.

Have you heard about the new reality show about sewers?! This near series shows teams in US communities working to keep their sewers healthy and functioning...by removing blocks. We've watched the first few episodes so far and it's super!

It's from Discovery and available through a bunch of streaming services.

Just a heads up - even if you work in sanitation, we recommend not watching it while eating wet food - it's pretty graphic. Those fatbergs are not appetizing.

DID YOU KNOW that FLUSH can help your team's marketing?

Host one of our fun events or classes for your team - online or in person. We offer "off-the-shelf" classes and tailored classes for audiences.

 

Have us help your organization. We offer consulting services for service providers in data-based storytelling and market-based systems.

FLUSH would love to see your whacky toilet tourism experiences from near and far!
