Back40 Design Group Internship: Marketing/Sales

• Want to be an ad rep for 50,000 readership?
• Want to sell websites in an emerging market?
• Want to learn about logo design, printing, and brand campaigns?

We're seeking a marketing and sales intern (unpaid) who would like to take advantage of learning real-world experience in a fast-paced, friendly environment. Back40 Design Group is a full-service marketing and design firm with 3 main departments:

• Custom Web Design & Development
• Marketing/Print Materials: Logo, Business Cards, Brochures, etc.
• Monthly Magazine: Edmond Outlook

Learn. Experience. Grow. We simply want a talented and motivated individual who's looking to shine and show themselves as an up and coming star. We do not currently have a full time opening available, but this internship could easily become that should the person show incredible initiative. We never like to pass on a great talent. :) You will certainly learn a lot in our fast-paced environment across all 3 departments - there's nothing like it!

Key tasks would be to answer the phones, proof articles for the magazine for grammar/spelling, research the Internet for local Edmond and North OKC sales leads, new companies, businesses in the news, etc, help input web content into our Proprietary Javelin Content Management System (training provided), call clients to secure their advertisement approvals, and much more. You will shadow a seasoned magazine sales rep to learn the ropes of product selling, and even shadow a web sales rep to learn more about selling intangible services such as websites.

Our ideal candidate would be a self-starter who is highly motivated toward marketing and sales. You would need customer service etiquette, and typical computer knowledge involving Google search engine, Email, Microsoft Word, etc. A great phone voice and personality will be essential.

Full training available. We do not expect you to know what the terms SEO and CMS mean walking in the door. Full training is available to anyone willing to learn and work hard.

Part time hours are great. We work well with school schedules. We've even helped individuals get course credit through local colleges, where appropriate. If you've got 10 hours a week to spare, fantastic! 20? Even better! We're flexible. We want this to be a rewarding experience for you.

Never get bored. We do not have much in the area of boring mailing, faxing, and stuffing of envelopes - so come fully prepared to really work toward projects that matter!
