Week 9: Wrapping Things Up

Next week marks the final week of this Digital Marketing Internship. I can't believe it's already coming to an end! Here are a few of the highlights I'll take away from this experience:

  • Working for a startup allows you to wear many different hats and complete all kinds of various tasks. 
  • Reading vocabulary words in textbooks only gets you so far. Being in an office and using digital marketing terms in the real world is incredibly helpful!
  • Being part of the clinic was great - each week, we all shared our successes with each other and cheered our peers on. I think this made my internship more impactful than if I had experienced it on my own.
  • Working in downtown Ann Arbor is wonderful (despite having to pay for parking)!

I took the test a third time, scoring a 75 percent (at this point I was getting frustrated - I was only 5 points away from passing!). I completed Advanced Google Analytics training modules, retook the assessments, and took detailed notes. Finally, on my f

Hootsuite and Campaign Monitor Reviews

During this internship, I have gotten the chance to work with two social media management websites for the first time: Hootsuite and Campaign Monitor. Today's blog is about my experiences with these two platforms. Hootsuite Hootsuite it very easy to use! As a first time user, I had no problems navigating the interface and figuring out how to use it. Being able to schedule social media posts in advance is such a time-saver. In about 2 hours, I was able to schedule content for the next 4 weeks. For Twitter, the link-shortening feature was incredibly helpful to save characters. Campaign Monitor (CM) Like Hootsuite, CM is easy to use and figure out. I experienced no problems as a first time user. CM provides many pre-made email templates, which is incredibly helpful. It also saves lots of time! The analytics available on CM are wonderful! I was able to quickly compare the various emails ShapeLog has sent to subscribers and get valuable feedback about which ones were most
