I managed a team of 5 on this project, a graphic designer, two developers and a copywriter. We finished the project on time and managed to reduce the final estimated cost by 7%. After everything I had done at Printsome in the last two years, it felt like it wasn’t a challenge for me to come to work. I couldn’t feel excited about new things and there weren’t any more actions or meaningful tasks for me to take.

At that time, I had helped a few local businesses grow online, specialising myself on Social Media Ads. I grew an interesting portfolio of projects highly related to sports, pointing out a double collaboration that I did with the professional Spanish Football Club, UD Las Palmas. Back in the days, UD Las Palmas was still in second division and struggled to get “abonados”, hence why they decided to run a special campaign called “Friends”. Simply put, if you got your season ticket last year and bring two new people to get theirs for the new season, yours will be free. Taking advantage of social media, we built a page that would put together these people even if they weren’t really friends. They would split the discount so everyone wins. Although this wasn’t the only reason, the campaign was a huge success, people responded extremely well and the club managed to increase their “abonados” by 5% compared to the previous season. Special thanks to A&D Productions, the agency that put me in touch with most of my clientes at the time. Show less

Alternatively, I developed a marketing strategy when I was just 19 that aimed to set and push the brand to be the most important online newspaper regionally. Although I managed to present my strategy to the board, they ended up rejecting it under the impression than the online panorama was something with no future. The believed the paper crisis was just temporary. Five years later, another brand new newspaper has taken over the online scene and surpassed more traditional, almost emblematic businesses for the elderly. Show less
