Tunomukwathi Asino: The beginning

When I first saw the marketing intern position advertised for Main Line Life newspaper, I decided to apply for it. I got the position. Main Line Life is a weekly newspaper based in Wynnewood, Pennsylvania. The newspaper covers the Main Line.

My current assignments are helping revise the media kit of Main Line Life. Apart from that I am also helping revise their special sections, such as fashion, bridal guide and prestigious properties.

I read through the media kit and the sections and critique them. I also make suggestions to make them more appealing to readers and advertisers.

Some of the assignments I work on from campus. I work with a co-intern. I do not see her as often, but we keep in touch by e-mail.

So far I love everyone at my internship. I love working with my boss and my co-intern. I am excited, and look forward to be learning to all there is about sales.

My interests are in journalism. I decided to get a marketing internship so that when I get a writing job I will know both the advertising and the editorial perspective of the business, in order to have a true understanding of the overall operations of the business.
