Last week I began my position as a Creative Marketing intern at Details Flowers Software. Eventually, I will focus on social media, graphic design, and social marketing. However, for the first month, I, as well as the other intern (he is a sales intern), will be training with the Details Support and Service department to learn everything there is to know about the software, how it runs, how it benefits our clients, and how the different departments work together for the best possible final result. During this internship, I will be working Monday through Thursday 9 to 5. I was initially a bit skeptical regarding such a heavy workload, however, and confident in the preparation it will provide me with for my future career goals.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Immediately I felt comfortable and accepted by the team and have been working on tasks since the first hour. As interns, we are treated as a part of the team. We attend all team meetings, and events, and so far, have been valued for our current knowledge and skills. The past two weeks I have learned how to create and transfer spreadsheets, specifically for the AIFD Symposium that will be occurring in July. I also have been consistently shadowing the support team with calls, and tasks, and learning all of the ins and outs of Hubspot. Additionally, I have conducted several calls to clients regarding their subscription plans, and have sat in on multiple tutorial meetings for the software (these are called \u201cDetails University Courses). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This Thursday (today), we had the opportunity to accompany the Details team to the official ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new Details Sales Lab in partnership with the Stetson University Centurion Sales Team. This was my first major event and gave me insight into how respected Corrine Heck (my boss and Details\u2019 CEO) is in the business industry and the floral world. And I am confident that I will be learning so much more from her over the course of these next few months.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While I am incredibly eager to begin working in the marketing department and more specifically in the social media and graphics area, I feel as though working with the support team has been very beneficial in my understanding of how the marketing approach should go and why it is important to understand the company as a whole before jumping into such a specific team. I could not be more excited about this opportunity and am looking forward to really understanding the workflow of such a successful company.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
