FPA Attends and makes a sales splash at the FAMU Spring Career Expo

As part of our SNPA grant funding this year to tell our “growing and evolving” print and digital media story through our EYC (Elevate your Connections) initiative, we are elevating awareness of our media business as a great place for professional sales students to start their sales career by building stronger connections to Sales Professors and their students. As part of this program, we have calendared career fairs at Florida universities to have a presence throughout the year on a quarterly basis, including the TOP minority sales colleges like FAMU and FIU. As you can see from the pictures, we made a nice splash to 60 plus sales and marketing students at FAMU last week.

In tandem, we launched a Media Speakers Bureau and have been working with Column our tech partner to develop and create a robust newspaper/media internship opportunities Job Board that connects Sales Students at Universities and their placement offices with our local media internship opportunities.  Please see “The Lede” piece in this e-bulletin to upload your media sales internships today!
