Packed by the hundreds, Katlyn Smith, Crystal Polston and Robert Kissell distributed colorful and classically enjoyable Frisbees to relaxing vacationers out enjoying a stress-free day.  Internet Marketing Specialist, Robert Kissell, who could think of no good reason not to do something so simple and fun, devised the idea.  "It was really a neat way to just get our company's name out to visitors and let them know how much we enjoy having fun and that we value the simple things," says Robert.

The whole event was captured on camera, and a video was produced and published on their Outer Banks Blog: The Outer Banks Current.  Southern Shores Realty's blog is self-proclaimed as the most extensive and creative on the Outer Banks.  From regular beach and surf report videos to informative articles and guides, the vacation rental company takes great efforts to keep Outer Banks lovers engaged.

Kissell is a long-time vacationer to the Outer Banks who joined Southern Shores Realty in June of 2012.  He is accompanied by Katlyn Smith of Glen Allen, Virginia: the most recent addition to their marketing team who also vacationed to the OBX before relocating there.

"Katlyn is a great addition to our team, she adds a great deal of both talent and energy to our environment which makes devising creative and effective marketing strategies almost effortless," Robert adds.  "Without her, this particular idea probably wouldn't have taken off."
