Sales and Marketing Intern
Blossom Nutraceuticals is a wellness based coffee alternative startup founded to help aid those who want a morning latte that won’t make them anxious or leave them with a dreaded caffeine crash.
As a sales and marketing intern for Blossom, I worked various events to increase brand awareness and sales efforts. These included events at farmers markets in Naperville, Logan Square, Printers Row, and an event at Merchandise Mart in Chicago.
A large part of this was educating prospective customers on the ingredients in the products (such as Guarana, L-Theanine, Gaba, and Valerian Root) so that they could be more informed on the benefits that the lattes would give in comparison to the standard cup of coffee. I also worked on upselling items to current customers and collecting customer emails for email marketing purposes.
