Summary

Over the last 14 years I have developed a unique skill set in my role of content creator with story telling and organic engagement at the forefront of all campaigns. My 12 years assisting market vendors and the founder of The Olde Farmhouse Market and 3.5 years at Hayloft Vintage Mall are a huge benefit with coordinating needs and requests from people with different abilities involving content creation. The multiple small businesses I work with cultivate a solid customer base and are able to attach new customers with the marketing and social media campaigns I've developed. These campaigns include marketing initiatives including graphic design, fun campaigns with like-minded or surrounding businesses, contests with community accounts / influencers, and a scheduled plan implemented by social media utilizing current trends and concepts. My reputation for developing organic, effective projects for each client dependant on budget, current engagement and presence in their communities is what I'm best known for. I am especially excited to learn more about the Marketing Coordinator position because it's in my community of Port Moody where I would love to tell stories about the beautiful Arts community that you have established.
