I am currently completing a 3.5 month internship at Youth for Christ (YFC) on the Central Coast since early 2017. It has been a challenging and hands-on experience that involved the creation of a branch marketing sector. I learnt a good deal about creating procedures and practices for day to day communication and long term marketing implementation. Strategy- I created base level documents for the branch following a re-branding roll out nationally. This included the development of a branch communication guideline, strategies for Facebook, Instagram and scheduling services including Hootsuite. Briefing - I compiled research and case studies to assist in vision for marketing campaigns and training seminars. I helped the regional team leader to create mock-ups of webpages and social media sites for various Christian organisations and presented these as viable options for their respective communication strategies. This lead me to creating working versions of these webpages and social media sites. This helped the Regional Team Leader to get projects into an active phase and generated a culture of digital awareness within YFC Central Coast. Leadership - I was essentially working in house, directly with my client. This entailed a great level of multitasking and leadership skills. I was managing current campaigns, scheduling new campaigns and learning how to navigate the world of not-for-profit organisations with very small advertising budgets. This led to delicately managing expectations and yielding high level results with free media.

This position was on a volunteer basis, but engaged the creation of a new church 'brand'. Jobs undertaken include: - Developing a marketing strategy - Developing a new website- Creating an Instagram - Developing existing Facebook pages - Unifying the digital presence of the Church to look like one cohesive organisationThis role was challenging and dynamic as it was recreating the basis of a marketing portfolio for House of Praise. There was previously no cohesive strategy in place for any marketing or church life updates and the information was inconsistently updated. This was my first experience in generating a new webpage and the experience I gained throughout that process has developed me for any further endeavors in this field.
