Today
is my first day as an intern for Agua Bendita Australia. My first thought this
morning was “what am I going to be working on today?” I hadn’t had a clue with
what was going to happen, especially with the fact that I wouldn’t need to get
ready to go to an actual office… My room and laptop was considered as an office!
I now had to treat this space as a working environment with no temptation of
getting distracted with knowing that at any time I can stop everything to have
lunch, browse the internet, laze on the couch or even consider sleeping in.
This
morning Maria my supervisor/online store manager called me for an assignment,
my first project for Agua Bendita. At first I was nervous and wanted to prove
to her that my assignment is top notch and that I was a good intern. Most of
all I didn’t want to disappoint her on the first day.
Maria
filled me in the background as to what she wanted me to focus on, it consisted
writing a report about social media channels, back then Agua Bendita Australia
was in the process of launching it’s first social media channel – Faceebook.
This was a perfect opportunity for me. I was incredibly focused and motivated
in this report that once I had completed it, I emailed a copy off to her as
well as printed a hard copy and dropped it off at the boutique store in
Claremont (store that now has closed down due to high rent).
My
thoughts on today was, even though Agua Bendita Australia is still starting up
and isn’t known yet to the public, I see a lot of potential. By seeing how Agua
Bendita official (Colombia based) is succeeding example appearing on U.S Sports
Illustrator 4 consecutive year, the Australian franchise will take time to
launch and start up but with patience and using good public relations,
marketing and communications strategies it will end up being on the same level.
