Diary of an Intern - Week 3

Hey everyone,

Ok third week in and I’ve been very busy doing worky type things such as…
Designing some window display stickers for Left & Right for stockists to put up in their window displays, which will let everyone know that the store is extremely reputable because they sell Left & Right clothing.

I have been planning and drawing up the storyboards for creating some new videos for the Left & Right YouTube channel (just like Spielberg) and am hoping to be able to film them soon – I saw Harry Potter at the weekend so I’m feeling pretty inspired.

I also went with the Left & Right team to Aruba to discuss our Guinness World Record idea to break the world’s largest surfboard record aaaand the most people surfing on the board at one time record (it’s gonna be so totally awesome) especially as Aruba have agreed to hold the launch party :)

I was involved with drawing up the blueprints for the surfboard as well in order to help obtain as many sponsors as possible. We drew it to scale…it’s pretty big… Along with all the other preparation for the surfboard I have also been working on writing up a proposal for the event, just to be organised and all that.

I went to the local youth club with Gemma (sales and marketing genius) to discuss an involvement in their new magazine project by Teen Identity, which will be distributed to local schools and clubs. Some of their members want to write an article on fashion and are hopefully going to visit us next week to have a look around and learn a little bit more about the fashion industry and Left & Right as well.

Gemma also took me on a sales trip to talk to local shops and companies about stocking our brand. It was quite successful and we received a lot of positive feedback, not bad for my first sales trip!

I also added a new Facebook tab to the page, it allows you to shop directly as well as upload your own photos to the gallery to show off your style. I will update it when the new clothing lines have been added to the online store (not long now!)

Oh and I just had a coconut milkshake and a sparkly cupcake :)
Stay classy San Diego.
