Company Name
The Book Without A Story
Company profile
“The Book Without a Story” (http://www.thebookwithoutastory.com , launching on October 10th 2011) is the crowd funding project behind a currently-under-development social startup.
The Book without a Story is a project that allows people to pre-buy an unwritten book and cast their vote on different aspects of the book’s story as well, thus ultimately creating a story based on the readers choices. Buyers are also able to vote the author they would like to get the writing contract for the book, thus deciding who will write “their” story
The Book’s story will therefore be “karma” based, user-driven, creativity-filled and social in its nature.
Details of internship
We are recruiting 6-9 international online marketing managers. The International Online Marketing Managers will report to the International Marketing Team Leader.
Each international marketing manager will be responsible for developing its own marketing strategy, marketing plan, managing the company’s identity and executing all online marketing activities for 1-3 social media outlets (facebook, linkedin, twitter, google+, tumblr, etc..) and for one (or maximum two) of the following geographical regions:
• North America
• South America
• Western Europe
• Eastern Europe, Russia and CIS
• Africa
• Middle East
• China
• North East Asia
• South East Asia
• Autraliasia
The international online marketing managers will work together to define AND implement/execute the marketing strategy and marketing plan across the major geographical areas with the main objective of generating sales, word of mouth publicity and marketing “viral noise” amongst possible customers.
The international online marketing manager will have to market the website online through free methods. These include but are not limited to posting, replying, messaging, creating/sharing/commenting videos/pictures, participate in discussions, comment on articles and much more on a variety of websites not limited to social websites (message boards, books-specific websites/communities, etc..).
They will share best-practices and cooperate with each others when necessary/useful. They will have full freedom to operate within their assigned geographical areas/social media outlets. They will present a weekly action plan and a weekly review of activities to the International Marketing Team Leader and discuss with him to improve execution, strategy and results.
The International Marketing Team Leader will provide general guidelines as to the type of websites that should be targeted and the target market profile. The interns are required to expand on such general guidelines and make them their own based on the specific cultural/geographical/social realities of their markets of responsibility. Interns should seek to continuously improve their strategies and their executions in order to optimize and maximize their impact, noise and sales
Desired profile
