PR InternHayley Menzies
- London, United KingdomInternship
Managing press releases and newsletter updates, communicating with press, managing the social media platforms, attending press events, and assisting on photoshoots. One of my main roles was to promote the brand through the use of Instagram stories, for this I created themes and schedules to ensure that content was continually provided and to a standard that represented a luxury brand. Whilst I was running the social media, the following increased by over 1000 new followers, with an average of 350-400 viewing the social media. I collated this data into Excel documents to represent the growth of the brand’s social media presence and demonstrate what content is more popular. I have been very fortunate to have been with the company during the launch of their new SS19 campaign, which has been doing incredibly well. And working on the production of the AW19 campaign. I also frequently used digital marketing platforms such as Photoshop and InDesign to create online content for the website; such as ad campaigns and website visuals.
