Charlotte Harris ACIM

At CIM, I worked closely with Laura to build engagement across our social media channels. She used her copywriting skills to craft compelling content for the CIM website, as well as copy for social media posts. Using a creative brief, she would brief in visual assets for the posts, using data to discern what resonated best with our audience on each platform. She even went above and beyond by assisting with social media videos, including Instagram reels, TikToks, and the first CIM Marketing Podcast Live video on YouTube. I highly recommend Laura, as her approachable and collaborative nature makes her a pleasure to work with.

I would recommend Laura in a heartbeat, she has only been with us a few months but in that time Laura has built some really solid relationships with the team she works with as well as the people she interacts with each day via procurement. Laura is extremely professional, friendly and has a very positive attitude. Her passion and drive to do a good job is so infectious, Laura is thorough at all times and has great attention to detail ... absolutely loved working along side her every day Would love to work with Laura again and would recommend her to any company
