    • Much of my time was spent capturing photo and video content in the workshop but also writing the copy for social posts, blogs, newsletters and press releases and scheduled them to go out. I regularly spoke to makers about their work and formed good bonds over time. • Since the company was rebranding I was responsible for designing the new brand collateral: posters, postcards, email and newsletter templates as well as clothing. • One of the key goals in my role was member growth, I accomplished this through raising brand awareness online and email direct marketing. By building a database of potential members we reached out through varying emails pitching our services.

    MSc Marketing ManagementUniversity of Derby
     - Derby, United Kingdom
    This specialised marketing course consisted of modules about communications which covered the impact of culture on marketing communication and how brands within different regions interact with their audiences. Consumer behaviour attempted to get into the mind of the target demographic and consider the decision-making process, as well as corporate social responsibility and how the actions of companies affect the attitude towards them. Branding and brand management looking at how to stand out in a crowded market place and the challenges you might face. Lastly, services marketing similar in ways to communications taught me about how companies can quickly adapt and change to suit the needs of their customers and factor in the constant technological advances.
