Item Description

Want to know more about marketing, social media & blogging? This is a totally unique opportunity to get behind the scenes for anyone interested in media. This item is offered by BA alum Maggie Sutherland '10, founder of Seacoast Lately.

Seacoast Lately is a modern day lifestyle resource based in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. Consisting of a website, blog, and social media platforms, Seacoast Lately celebrates the many beautiful towns that make up the Seacoast to create a curated, happy resource for locals and visitors alike! No two days are ever the same at Seacoast Lately which keeps opportunities fun, exiting, and unique. Your "day in the life" shadow experience will be catered to your specific interests, but may include activities such as... meeting up with a local business owner to discuss their marketing needs, a private tour of a historic building or going behind the scenes to see how coffee is roasted at a local roaster, visiting an artists' studio, taking pictures around town, or writing blog posts and learning about the backend of blogging and current marketing tactics to name a few. The day will be spent in downtown Portsmouth and is sure to be fun!

The job shadow would be a 3-hour experience to be scheduled during the summer of 2020 at a mutually agreed upon time.

This opportunity is open to Upper School students.
