ME Marketing Services, LLC is looking for an intern to assist with the social media marketing efforts of the business itself and their clients. You will learn the ins and outs of the business and how to make social media a productive part of overall marketing efforts.

Interns must be able to assist in formulating social media strategies and then carry them out (with our assistance). You must be able to measure and document the impact of social media, and then suggest action-steps to increase impact.
