Saggio Technology

Social Media Content Creator

August 2022 • Columbus, IN

What I liked

Working for Saggio Technology has been a great experience as a Social Media Content Creator. I have done social media content creation in the past, however through this internship I have been able to explore digital marketing through different channels that I have not previously done. Dan Ford is an amazing mentor who really is passionate about seeing everyone grow and gaining useful experience from the internship.

What I wish was different

Working remotely is great as there is a wide variety of people you get to interact with, however I do wish there was the potential for an in-person internship.

Advice

Don't be afraid to share your ideas throughout the internship, Dan is always looking for ways to improve the program. Also make sure you have fun, you are able to get so much out of this opportunity working in a collaborative setting.

Social Media Marketing Content Writer

August 2022 • Davenport, IA

What I liked

I liked the interview process at Saggio Technology as the interviewer asked me simple questions. One question that the interviewer asked was the following: why do you want this role? I answered him by saying that I want this role because through this opportunity I will be exposed to different work and projects that will help me apply what I have learned in my Social Media Marketing course even more. Through this process, I enjoyed and learned how to create easy to read objective reviews. Finally, I liked the discussion and disclosures that I had with my leader Dan by asking him questions about the interview process, job timings, job attributes, and job duties.

What I wish was different

What I wish had been different, as a Social Media Marketing Content Writer, was the chat section under Microsoft Teams software would have worked.

Advice

One piece of advice that I would share to a future intern is to work with grit and not lose hope. If you get constructive criticism from Dan as doing any task is a learning process. Rather you should take your boss's advice and do a better job in future work and projects in the long run. I would also advise you to be resourceful, independent, and use internet and watch videos to deliver quality work.

Marketing Intern

What I liked

The 10-hour-a-week commitment was great because it provided me with an internship and time to work another paid part-time job. The job was very low-stress and focused on collaborating on creating content for the company. It was a great experience. The job was definitely a great intro to marketing.

What I wish was different

I wish there was more marketing strategy and more explanation behind the marketing we did. I guess I wish we focused more on why we were doing what we were doing.

Advice

Try to tell a story with your marketing and try to make a meaningful experience by connecting with others and learning together.

What I liked

Working for Saggio Technology gives you a great insight into your future job. The process is very simple; apply on handshake, hand in your resume, you will speak to one of their leaders, and wait to see if you qualify. The interview process was more comfortable than any other interview you will get. They really want to know about you as a person rather than just being a cog-in machine. A business such as theirs, shows they care for their people. When starting the internship, expect to work in teams with people who have great ideas to expand your creativity and knowledge through a marketing lens. The internship won't last long, but you'd wish it did, because of the amazing connections you made throughout your time working for Saggio. They are the best!

What I liked

Working at Saggio Technology was a tremendous confidence boost for my career. I recall being very nervous the very first day. However, I was able to get comfortable rather seamlessly. My supervisor Dan Ford established a friendly and energetic environment for myself and other interns. I have learned about creating content, social media analytics, and writing captivating captions. I was able to develop leadership, creative writing, organization, and graphic design skills. I am very grateful for my time here.

What I wish was different

Perhaps more hours for each intern. I would have liked to work 15-20 hours per week.

Advice

Just doing the best you can and having a positive mindset. Also, don't be scared to ask questions. Communication is a huge part of every business. Therefore if you don't understand something then ask!

What I liked

Being an intern at Saggio Technology for almost two months, I have learned a lot about marketing. This was my first marketing job, and I was a bit nervous at first. However, Mr. Ford helped me a lot with writing and posting. He is very patient and knowledgeable, always giving constructive comments on my work. Working at Saggio, I have learned about various social platforms and postings. My colleagues are also very positive and enthusiastic, working with them is not only relaxing but also motivating. The two months at Saggio have been very fulfilling and rewarding.

What I liked

Some highlights about the experience: -Social media management -Engaged and active teams -Great leadership/management -Great way to learn tools like Canva -Brand management -Friendly environment

What I wish was different

The internship itself is not implicitly data-analysis-oriented, since it mostly focuses on the social media aspects. Would love to see more data-driven projects, but this is just a preference, since many interns might not have that experience going into the job. Overall, absolutely a wonderful experience!

Advice

Think outside the box and don't be afraid to take risks!

Marketing Intern

What I liked

Working with Saggio Technology was a great experience. This was my first marketing internship and going into it I was very nervous. Working with Dan and my internship group put all nerves to bed, it was an incredible environment and I have no regrets in working with Saggio Technology. I learned about content creation, social media analytics, and scheduling content. It was a test of organization, effort, and creativity. I enjoyed it.

What I wish was different

I know this is out of Saggio's control, however being able to work with a Marketing Budget would have been an incredibly valuable experience for this internship, however it just was not possible. With budget allocated to promoting our posts, I believe our accounts could have been even more successful!
