Unpaid Marketing Internship Opportunity with Epic Translations

Epic Translations is seeking an energetic, strategic, and results-oriented Marketing Intern to play a key role in shaping our future new customer acquisition initiatives. The Marketing Intern will be responsible for developing and executing a high growth marketing strategy concentrating on the Detroit area market of legal and multinational corporations.

Epic Translations customer base has been somewhat vertical and this Marketing Intern will lay the ground work for expansion into other industries (mentioned above). As we seek to become more relevant to legal and multi-national corporations, it is becoming increasingly important for us to engage with more Marketing activities. The marketing intern would conduct analyses to determine which corporations are most appropriate for our expansion and will see their recommendations through to the execution of a marketing campaign.

In this role, the Marketing Intern will be responsible for developing a deep understanding of the needs of our potential clients in order to influence doing business with Epic Translations.
Responsibilities will include:

● Analyzing primary research and segment customer data to develop customer insights and identify demographic and industry trends among the legal and multi-national corporations.

● Identify and analyze market segments, including growth trends, by specific service needs (translations, transcriptions, interpreting, voice-over, etc) to prioritize key growth segments

● Identify client profiles and success stories from the repository of existing clients for support with awareness/PR/media communication outreach. (Ex: provide examples of organizations who have successfully utilized Epic Translations’ services. Our marketing campaign can then pitch those stories to different industry publications).

● Develop and present a go-to-market strategy and plan for a cost-effective marketing campaign to acquire new customers in the new demographic categories. Execute one marketing campaign. If that isn’t enough, in order to provide a well balanced and rewarding internship, we’re also looking to the Marketing Intern to lead a smaller, business development project in support of Epic Translations’ project management abilities. In this role, you will complete an assessment of our existing project management tools, perform a SWOT analysis versus key competitors, determine key product and feature gaps, and make recommendations on optimal approach to filling gaps and driving additional revenues.
