My First Year as a Professional

My First Year as a Professional Kari Dunham Marquette Ad Club September 28, 2010

What I do • Finn Digital • Interactive Account Executive • Digital Marketing • I sell “air” • Newsletters • Clients include, B2B and B2C

What I Learned That I Didn’t Know Upon Graduation • Proposal Writing • Client Services • RFP Responses • Project Scheduling • Digital Best Practices • QA • Sales Process • Project Structure • Agency Life • Social Media in an Agency

What you can do to get that knowledge…. EXPERIENCE!

What Did I Do Today? • One Big Honkin’ RFP Response • Includes: • Case studies • Team Resumes • Screen Shots • Several Examples • ~160 hours have been put into this response

How did I get where I am today? • Internships • Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois • The Milwaukee Mile • The Milwaukee Admirals • The AMU Marketing Team • Finn Digital

Intern turned AE • Have examples to back up your resume • Edit your portfolio and put it online • Give 100% and then some

Biggest Lesson Be prepared to continue learning even after graduation…it doesn’t stop. Enjoy the experience, and always ask for more.
