SALES EXECUTIVE – (INTERNSHIP) BRIT ASIA TV

As a sales executive I was responsible for contacting clients whom would potentially like to sponsor the Brit Asia 2018 Music event. This role included calling these clients talking through what the event revolves around. After explaining to clients about the event, if they were interested I would send out the promotional content over email. My role as a sales executive had an impact upon the promotional content if anything needed adjusted I would make notes and contact the graphic designer.
