What I am looking forward to on the Kickstart Scheme by Nicky Leathard
Through this scheme I aim to improve upon my self-confidence in independent working and to gain skills in public speaking and networking as I have not much experience in these areas. Likewise, I am enthusiastic to gain in-depth knowledge of marketing from a variety of angles which will undoubtedly be extremely useful and applicable in my future career, whatever this may be.
In the past I have thoroughly enjoyed dealing with graphics and text to create impactful content. Therefore, I am very much looking forward to the creative tasks we will be given. I am extremely excited to work with the animation medium as this is an area that I have been wanting to venture into. I am keen to acquire and hone the relevant skills in this field and use them within a marketing task. As I have recently utilised my spare time to create my own art account and shop on Instagram, Etsy and Redbubble, I feel specifically drawn to understanding the mechanics and frameworks for marketing that will help my own business thrive.
Naturally I am looking forward to getting to know all the people who are similarly participating in this scheme with me, creating future contacts within the area and working with them in groups to utilise our strengths to help tackle upcoming challenges. Overall, I am very much looking forward to generally deepening my current understanding of the marketing world and all its facets.
