E-Portfolio: Internship Experience

Throughout my internship, I learned how to write for social media, create websites and set up multiple photoshoots. I set up the positions of the handbags, and modeled for some of the photoshoots as well. I created a story board to plan out the caption and hashtags for each post. I planned out when I would post for Instagram and how to remodel the new Instagram page. Throughout my experience, I learned how to manage my time and provide important content for an audience. I learned how to market merchandise through social media and create a marketing plan for business owners. I also learned more about applying to jobs and presenting my best self towards a potential job offer. Through attending a trade fair in Boston, I got a new experience in selling merchandise.
