  A. Caldwell Events

  • Mount Pleasant, SC

  • Associate Planner

    • Jan 2012 - Present
    • Mount Pleasant, SC

    I assist Alexandra Fisher in day-to-day office duties. In addition, I work to maintain open, professional, and clear communication with our clients and vendors. I do this by making phone calls, writing emails, and keeping detailed notes of any meetings we have. On event days, I arrive early to venues along with Alexandra to do all physical set up, decorating, and preparation for the event. During the event, I manage the various vendors, as well as the guests. Then, when the event commences, Alexandra and I break down the venue and take care of any last minute payments for our clients. One of my main responsibilities in the company is to increase A. Caldwell Events' presence on the internet. I do this by frequently posting on our blog and utilizing social media. Also, in the summer of 2012 as Carolina Food Design approached the rebrand into A. Caldwell Events, I created a marketing plan for the company that evaluated our target demographic and assessed which advertising options would be best given our budget and audience.
