From May 2011 to November 2011 (7 months) Researcher and Marketing Professor @ Headhunted by the director for the Faculty of Commerce, I was a marketing lecturer for undergraduate students focused on: brand and product analysis and development; marketing strategy; price determination; campaign planning; retail and sales.

From June 2010 to December 2010 (7 months) Internship, Events and Meetings Consultant @ One of my core responsibilities during this internship was conducting research to indentify B2B opportunities for companies in Asia, through cold calling and cultivating relationships. I received particular recognition for achieving more than 10 clients per day.
As personal assistant to a Senior Consultant, I managed to improve her utilization by approx 25%, an achievement for which I received recognition.
One of my most significant projects during my internship involved contributing to the marketing design of an online company. This project gave me a useful insight in to the targeting and marketing strategies of online enterprises From July 2009 to September 2009 (3 months) Customer Service Performance Assessor (Part-Time 1 year contract) @ Working for a Customer Relationship Management Consultancy.
The position gave me a useful insight into how companies valued, measured and maintained the quality of customer service they provided their clients. From January 2008 to December 2008 (1 year) Owner, Manager @ While studying for my undergraduate degree, I identified a need in the market for a community based event management enterprise within Tampico. Following a few small scale projects, initially by word of mouth, I was able to grow the business and started taking on ever larger events. I developed a marketing plan focused on B2B sales and was eventually organising ever larger projects, typically for events in excess 200 people. As the business grew, I quickly recruited, trained and managed staff to respond to the growing demand. I successfully sold the enterprise, which remains an ongoing and successful concern, to pursue a Masters degree in Management in the United Kingdom.
This early entrepreneurial experience enabled me to apply in practice much of the theory I was learning during my Business Administration degree. The experience also gave me a sound understanding of setting up and managing a viable enterprise, as well as developing my skills and understanding of marketing, sales, recruitment and training.
