Elevating our connections: FPA attends FSU‘s Seminole Sales Showcase

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 sales 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 sales University’s like FSU, FGCU, USF and UCF. As you can see from the pictures, we made an impact to 100 plus sales and marketing students at the Seminole Sales Showcase 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 called thenextlede.com that connects Sales Students at Universities and their placement offices with our local media internship opportunities.  Please see “The Next Lede” story in this e-bulletin to upload all of your media sales internships today!
