Company Fan: Guilder Robinson figured out a way to get a little breeze for himself and some publicity for his employer during the recent heat wave that struck Los Angeles. The South Los Angeles resident represents Nexxo, a company that specializes in wire transfers of funds to various locations in Latin America. He usually greets passersby on the sidewalk outside El Almacen De Musica, a store on the 700 block of S. Broadway, where he sets up shop each day. The recent heat wave saw him take a quick break inside, though, and he used a Nexxo promotional fan to stir the air. Notice how he made sure to get the Nexxo brand in the picture? Pretty cool thinking for a guy in the middle of a heat wave.
