YOUR WORK DAY
08:00 a.m.
My working day starts at 8 a.m. on the dot. The first thing on the programme is Instagram. I repost posts, reply to messages and comment on pictures showing our products.
09:00 a.m.
Texts and images are needed for a new brochure. I work on the texts together with my colleagues and then look for images in the archive. If I haven't found any suitable images, I liaise with our photographer to ensure that the desired motifs are shot.
11:00 a.m.
I check our Instagram account again. This time I pay special attention to our sponsoring partners. I check whether they are fulfilling their contractual obligations and discuss the latest trends with them.
11:30 a.m.
An order for fanshop items has been received. I use the inventory list to find the items, fill them in, write a delivery note and send the parcel to the specified address.
12:00 p.m.
Time for clipping. When clipping, I search for our placed adverts and editorial articles in trade journals, scan them and save them.
12:30 p.m.
During the lunch break, I relax and chat with the other trainees in the fresh air.
01:00 p.m.
A sponsorship enquiry comes in by email. I check the enquiry based on various parameters and then see whether a cooperation is worthwhile and make a recommendation to the department management.
02:00 p.m.
Now it's time for the editorial plan for Instagram. In collaboration with our technical team, I prepare a daily post for the entire week.
03:00 p.m.
I'm posting today's article and watching the response. I also noticed a few cool pictures of our products while researching. I ask the owners if we can also publish the content on our account.
03:45 p.m.
The latest post has been very well received. In consultation with our marketing manager, we want to advertise this post. To do this, I define a target group and set the budget and duration. Over the next few days, I will then track the success of the post and document it.
04:30 p.m.
Closing time! An eventful day comes to an end.
