Eco-Friendly Interns Invade Ann Arbor
September 2, 2008
Most companies hiring interns expect them to drive to the office
every day. Ingenex Digital Marketing, located in Ann Arbor, MI, has
taken a new approach this summer. Instead of asking cash-strapped
students to spend their summer driving to work, Ingenex has set up
a new and eco-friendly internship that allows interns to work from
home four days a week.
Ingenex Digital Marketing is a full-service interactive
marketing company based in Ann Arbor, Michigan. It is run by CEO,
Derek Mehraban, a Michigan State advertising graduate. The company
provides services in Interactive and web, search engine marketing,
social media and much more. Its clients include West System,
Campusfaves.com, and Inforum Michigan.
Ingenex eco-friendly interns are currently focusing on social
media marketing, search engine optimization (SEO), pay-per-click
Google Adwords (ppc), digital marketing strategy, and online public
relations.
Meet the Inaugural Eco-Friendly Team:
Lia Homeister completed her sophomore year at Michigan State
University. Homeister, advertising major, is learning digital
skills that will help her become a better media planner.
Grant Heitkamp, a recent graduate of Michigan State University’s
advertising program, is becoming an expert in all aspects of
Digital Marketing with plans to implement these skills for future
employers.
Kevin Conlon, also a recent graduate of MSU with a degree in
Advertising, hopes his digital marketing expertise will be valuable
in an account management role with future employers.
The Ingenex eco-friendly digital marketing internship is the
first of its kind. The growing demand for digital skills in
corporate America is undeniable. Ingenex plans to expand the
program in fall 2008, and offer digital marketing education to more
students at Michigan State University. To learn about the
