Basic Graphic Design & Branding
Due to my previous work at GloStart/Magnet, I met a lot of small business owners. A good number of them didn't qualify for the investments, nor did they quite need a full re-brand. Rather, some of them needed a bit of online awareness. Because I could do basic photography, craft content, and build their initial presence online, I served to meet that very basic level of need.
Copywriter
GloStart/MAGNET
I wore 2 hats, and learnt how to understand the health of businesses from their financials.
Mar 2015 - Sep 2015:
Content Writing
Articles (Digital & Trade Magazines)
Website Copy
Evaluation of financials & credit ratings of small business for investments
Secretarial Work
GloStart was the branding arm of a newly-established private investment group called GLO. Magnet was a branding and website creation agency. The CEO of GloStart was also one of the founders of MAGNET. My contract listed me as a secretary, but I was doing work that didn't fall under a normal secretary's jurisdiction. I was responsible for vetting the financials and credit ratings of small businesses that were interested in expansion and investments. Because I researched and learnt a good deal about the businesses, it only made sense for me to write the copy for their websites and features on trade/investment magazines.
The opportunity was invaluable, because it helped me develop a strong business sense.
Project Executive

I wrote the social media copy, chose the accompanying graphics, and created reports for clients.
Jan 2015 - Mar 2015:

Social Media Performance Reports
noisycrayons was a social media agency, doing B2C work for mostly travel-related and FMCG brands. I was responsible for the content calendar, UGCs, responding to followers, and monthly reports. I’m thankful for the opportunity to transition from internships to properly remunerated work.
