Communication strategies
The participants in this EYE project are Alessia, a social media manager, and Marco, an experienced entrepreneur and real estate consultant who hosted the collaboration. Alessia discovered the EYE programme while exploring different professional growth opportunities online. She decided to participate in the programme to gain hands-on experience in a professional setting, specifically in collaboration with an established entrepreneur like Marco. The partnership allowed her to deepen her understanding of marketing and to learn valuable business strategies from Marco’s experience.
During the EYE project Alessia collaborated with Marco on various activities related to social media management and strategic communication. Together they defined a targeted editorial plan for her social channels, aiming to increase online visibility and client engagement. Alessia created visual and textual content aligned with her brand, while Marco provided constant feedback and suggestions based on his entrepreneurial experience. This relationship of mutual trust and support led to synergistic work that enriched them both, allowing them to achieve common goals and lay the groundwork for future projects together.
The collaboration with Marco brought numerous professional and personal benefits for Alessia. She developed practical skills in social media management and in creating targeted communication strategies tools that will be essential for her entrepreneurial journey. Working alongside an expert in the real estate sector, she gained a deeper understanding of the dynamics of this market which enriched her strategic approach. Additionally, thanks to this experience, Alessia had the opportunity to expand her professional network, connecting with key figures in the real estate and marketing fields, potentially useful for future collaborations. As for future prospects she is excited to explore new cooperation opportunities with Marco, continuing to grow and apply what she has learned in upcoming projects.
