I'm going into the early stages of planning my capstone project for college. Every time I have an idea, no matter how silly it is, I'll be sure to record it here. Some will go into more depth than others.
01. JLMenard Photography Marketing Plan
My mom is a photographer, and the work she does is stunning. But by no means is she a marketer. I have an opportunity to go into business with her after I graduate, running the business aspect. Doing a complete marketing plan for her company, would benefit us both - and would additionally make a great capstone project. It's a great example of taking a good business and reworking it to work on a deeper level.
02. Incubator Business Plan - Design Shop
I've been working with the Avery County PRIDE (Professional and Retail Incubator Development Enterprise) doing social media marketing for a class. A lot of townspeople hate the project, and want to see it fail. I, however, see the potential. And would love to be a part of it. The second I walked in, I envisioned myself having my own little shop there and getting forever sucked into the small town of Banner Elk, for better or for worse.
03. Grandfather Home for Children
I have a friend who has been working as a youth care worker at the Grandfather Home for Children here in Banner Elk. I'm always hearing amazing stories about how kids' lives are being changed for the better literally every single day. They already have a similar video on their website, but it mainly focuses on what the Home does for the children. I would love to work on a documentary that gets the kids' perspectives and stories about how the Home is changing their life.
