    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • Providing Booker, Unilever's Independent wholesalers and Amazon with high quality B2B marketing material. This involved providing ads for both digital and print use, and also organising and executing in store activations amongst our wholesalers. As well as this, I ran several promotions online, working with wholesalers to attract more customers to purchase our products. This often involved running competitions, or giveaways.

    Responsibilities

  • 3. Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
  • I was given huge responsibility during my placement, especially for my first year in the industry. I was able to lead huge projects myself, and was never considered to be 'the placement 西瓜视频' and instead was seen as any other employee.
