Grace Klein Community Project
Project Description
As a part of my Social Media Marketing class, I had the opportunity to serve Grace Klein Community (GKC) as a social media intern. Teams were created to tackle various aspects of a larger social media campaign directed at increasing awareness of GKC and improving various KPIs such as website traffic, social media engagement, increased involvement, and more. I served as the team lead for the group tasked with the category "Becoming Involved." At the end of the semester, each group presented their results and suggestions to our professor, and my team was one of two teams selected to present our findings to the client.

Each team member was tasked with creating a subcategory for their content. My chosen subcategory was "Becoming Involved as a Business Partner." We were required to create one piece of video-based content and one piece of photo-based content for GKC's social media platforms as well as one piece of story content to be posted to our own social media platforms. For each piece of content, I have included my strategy for

Video-Based Content
Strategy
My strategy for this video was to capture moments with Commander, the mascot of the Birmingham Squadron and proud GKC partner, serving alongside other volunteers. This highlights the hands-on impact that businesses can make in partnership with GKC. When considering my target audience as businesses, I decided that the video needed to have a professional tone.
