Face to Face Matters

 If you are digging social media for business use, and if you are sure you are going to be around MSU for at least another year, and if you have (or expect to have by May) your New Media Driver's License then consider this possibility:

From: Jack Pyle (Independent Consultant and Executive Coach)

I'm looking for an intern who wants to become proficient at inbound marketing (SEO and social media marketing.) I've been studying this over the past four months and it is working. Visits to my website have increased from about 20 a month to nearly 400 last month, up 74% from the previous month. I have been sick this month and have done no social media marketing, yet my website visits are up 40%. Once you get the ball rolling people keep coming.

I want to spend most of my time developing my leadership communication content into podcasts, videos, webinars, articles and short ebooks. I will help my intern learn to do these things as well, and aid me in promoting them online.

Initially, I am unable to pay an intern, but as the income flow picks up, I will pay an hourly rate of $10 and increase it as income increases. I also am willing to pay a percentage of income in the future.

My approach with interns is to provide mentoring, establish productivity goals and give autonomy, so that the intern can work at their own pace and make their own decisions about their work flow to achieve agreed on results.
