A Wild Journey Awaits.
Event Planner Internship
GoWild needs an intern who is hungry to learn, thirsty for a taste of startup life, and, most of all, excited to be a part of one of Louisville’s best live events for 2022.
GoWild is a free social community helping outdoor enthusiasts improve their skills, discover gear & earn rewards. A platform that started as a basement-developed side hustle is now flipping the outdoors industry on its head and growing like wildfire.
In 2022, we’re bringing our digital product into the real world with Send It Slam. This live event includes archery, live music by some of Kentucky’s hottest upcoming acts, Louisville’s finest food trucks, two of Kentucky’s tenured breweries, and more than 20 brands.
This internship is for someone who wants real-world event planning experience. This is not a “pickup lunch” or “get me coffee” kind of role. The Event Planner Intern will be responsible for a host of duties.
Responsibilities
- Crafting social media content to promote the event
- Generating guerilla marketing tactics
- Assisting with live television promotion
- Coordinating with media for live event
- Distributing promotional materials for event
- Assist GoWild with day-of needs, including but not limited to catering to performing artist needs, assisting brands with logistics, ticket assistance, etc.
We treat interns like full-time employees. This means you’ll get the chance to learn side-by-side with our award winning marketers, copywriters, designers, etc. It also means we’re looking for real contributors, so if you just want to pad a résumé and not contribute, this is not for you. If you’re ready to roll up your sleeves and be a part of something special, sign up.
This role will work with the GoWild marketing team and report directly to the CEO.
Requirements
- You have to be in Louisville, Ky.—not a remote position
- Must be able to provide your own transportation
Timeline
We are paying $250 per week for 5 weeks. A bonus will be available if certain milestones are met. Interns should expect a varying schedule, and no more than 20 hours per week with exception of the last week and the day of Send It Slam. The internship will start after Memorial Day and will wrap up around July 13, 2022.
