5. H E M S L E Y O R G A N I C S
My time at Hemsley Organics involved devising a Social Media
Marketing Strategy with the aim of the brand developing a more
dominant online presence throughout the product launch to press
and retail buyers.
Developing A Social Media Strategy
Creating Content and Implementing Strategy
Influencer Collaborations
@HemsleyOrganics /HemsleyOrganics
www.hemsleyorganics.com
To increase awareness of the brand, Hemsley Organics connected with
influencers on a gifting basis in return for Instagram / blog reviews. The
process of scouting out suitable influencers, making connections and
seeing through the collaboration was all completed by myself. The
brand successfully connected with 14 influencers and recieved all
positive feedback as a result. The key brand messages were spread
through online communities and as a result Hemsley Organics
experienced an increase in sales.
Developing the Social Media Strategy involved running an audit of the
brand to see where their areas of downfall and improvements were
located. Having done so, a strategy was created and shared with the
brand owner and brand consultant.
New fresh content was created for all of the social media platforms to bring
something new and exciting to the online consumers. This involved putting
a face to the brand through a short series of interviews with the owner of
Hemsley Organics. Meanwhile, regular competitions/ giveaways were ran to
increase consumer interaction across the social channels, all of which were
greatly successful.
7. Katie has been a true star. As our intern Katie
has been invaluable. Katie has a very thorough,
methodical & logical approach and is
extremely capable. She is well versed in how
social media platforms work and has
supported our business very well in such a
short time. Katie has great PC skills (envious)
so this has also helped. I would be very happy
to employ Katie. She’s capable, motivated and I
love her direct approach.

14. The website will:
- Allow customers to view the menu away from being in the
establishment.
- Boast reviews and photographs of the goods for sale and
the friendly service.
- Allow customers to easily contact the establishment.
It's also equally vital to focus on SEO. The keywords and
tags for the website (plus social media) should be carefully
selected to increase the chances of users finding the website
through search engines. Ideally, Mill Waters will appear first
when searching for 'Café's in Sutton in Ashfield'. This
requires Mill Waters Café to feature a personalised domain
name.

32. Blog
Katie Lauren Blogs was developed in 2015 and has evolved with me as the years have passed.
This site was developed with the intention of being my own online creative space. This site
allows me the freedom to practice my contnet creation & social media marketing skills. As
this blog began to fall into place, I then progressed into working with brands creating
contet based on their products/ services. Likewise, I have since built a following of
committed readers who enjoy the creative content I share including topics such as lifestyle,
travel, fashion and beauty alongside the uncut version of student life. While my blog has
allowed me to build connections with brands and PR agencies, I have been able to build on
my creative writing, graphics design and social media marketing skills which are all great
assets for me going forward.

How it started...
36. RUBY AURORA
Aurora
Ruby
Ruby Aurora is
a new home
decor brand,
founded by
Katie Peet.
Ruby Aurora blossomed from Katie's desire to
express her creativity and life-long ambition to
launch her own business. As a new graduate learning
the ropes of the 'real world', what better time to try
out something new and fulfil ambitions.
The name 'Ruby Aurora' is a name that has been
carefully considered by Katie to have positive
associations with her personal life. 'Ruby' derives
from the name of Katie's late dog who sadly passed
away in February 2019, she grew up alongside Ruby
and felt it was only right to honour her in some way
as she had impacted her personal growth in more
ways than ever.
'Aurora' symbolises Katie's fascination with
astronomy and completion of life-long ambition to
see the Northern Lights (aurora borealis), which she
accomplished on a trip to Iceland in January 2019.
