Hype Group is a full-service marketing firm that helps its clients to build, elevate, and strengthen their brands. Offering services ranging from packaging, to social media presence, to public relations, Hype Group is backed by a savvy team that helps clients strategize, coordinate and implement their marketing and branding efforts. In my four-year tenure from a student Intern to Brand Manager, I advanced the development of and managed growth-focused marketing strategies for 12+ client accounts—breweries, restaurants, bridal shops, home improvement shops, and other types of small businesses.Selected duties and accomplishments include:• Created and deployed pitches, press releases, and press-related correspondence; pitch decks, proposal projects, and media plans for client presentations; content and strategy for 10+ social media accounts across multiple platforms, blogs, and websites; and grassroots marketing collateral.• Oversaw all aspects of branding and marketing for a food truck client, Vanchetta. From logo inception to packaging and creating online presence, the client went from a bare white ice cream truck to a full-service restaurant on wheels in a matter of weeks. • Built continued relationships with the media on behalf of clients. On one occasion, I crafted and pitched a press release to local Tampa Bay media to help ensure coverage for HGTV star, Tobin Green's progressive home construction in the Tampa Bay area.
