I work cooperatively with the Event Director to ensure all video game and esports events have proper coverage on all appropriate social and physical media platforms. I must make decisions on the probable demographics of our target audience and begin focusing content towards those individuals. I also aide in deciding the types of content that garner the best effect with our audience. When we are not actively prepping for a larger event I am working through our social media accounts to support the online communities we have built. This entails working to receive feedback, keeping our content fresh to capture mind share, providing a high level of customer service, taking steps to grow our following, or simply interacting with individuals on a personal level to show we are active and available. As a tertiary responsibility, I also ensure our sponsors are satisfied by our our coverage of their products or services and we meet the requirements of the sponsorship agreement.
