I made phone calls to a lot of country clubs and asked if they needed anything from us and if they wanted to be on our store locator on our website or if they wanted to do a quick online training to enter into a lottery for a Galvin Green piece. I also packaged certain clothes to our reps and was one of our salesman and show model for the event we went to. Addition to that I made a procedure to show businesses how to make an account on our website. My project was important because I helped stores that sold our clothes and I not only helped them, but I helped us Galvin Green, for example if they wanted to be on our store locator, we add them on and many people see that store and go to it to by our clothes.

I feel like I made a meaningful contribution to this workplace because I made phone calls to a lot of country clubs and asked if they needed anything from us and if they wanted to be on our store locator on our website orif they wanted to do a quick online training to enter into a lottery for a Galvin Green piece. I also packaged certain clothes to our reps and was one of our salesman and show model for the event we went to. The work I did is significant to the world out of school because it gives you schools that you will definitely need which would be confidence, patience, and the will to work. Working as an intern made me appreciate some new things which would be, not having a teacher always on me about my work and participation in class. Also gaining independence and initiative without that teacher and actually going to work and not school. Besides being with my mentor and colleagues or getting help, I am actually by myself and to work by yourself actually isn’t the easiest thing in the world because you have to begin work without anyone telling you to do so and continue it. Something's I saw in the people around me such as skills that I want to develop in myself are, how Steve is so comfortable literally talking to everyone and the insane organization Angie has with her workplace, work, and everything. During my internship I feel like I advocated for myself actually a lot. There were times where I had no idea what to say on a phone call because the person I was talking to asked me a question I never thought I would be asked. So I told the person on the phone, “give me one second, let me ask my office manager.” Then I went to my office manager and asked and told her I needed help.
I feel like throughout the whole time of internship I feel like I have been a great and memorable intern. I have been doing exactly as I been told and on time if not early. Whenever something is given to me as an add on to what I am already doing I do not complain or anything I just get it done. I come in on time and as soon as I set foot in the door I begin to work. For my internship I plan on making a lot of phone call to country club pro shops that sell our product and pretty much be customer service and make courtesy call seeing if they need anything from us. Also ask if they want to be on or store locator and maybe even do this training that enters you into a lottery to get a free Galvin Green piece. I will be going to golf events where we have our pop up shops and I will be our show model and one of our salesman.
The skills I will need for these things are patience, kindness, posture attitude, confidence, and knowledge. Each one of those contribute to everything thing I am doing in my internship. I will need support and help from my mentor and colleagues to teach me more about the brand and give me some add on things to do that will positively affect our company.
I enjoy my workplace very much, the thing that strikes me the most is that I have my own office, there aren’t many employees working from this building, so you definitely have space, it is very quiet, and we have our Galvin Green show room presenting all of our products. What strikes me the most about my colleagues is that they are very respectful and helpful. They play one of the biggest parts in this internship, without them I would have no idea what I am doing, also I wouldn’t have this internship. For the job I am doing here, the thing that strikes me the most is that I get to learn everything about the marketing side of things, I get to learn about our clothes and the specialties of them, and I make professional phone calls with shops selling our product. I am excited about going to golfing events and helping out at our pop-up shops, and I am worried about the questions that people might ask me while I am calling other shops.
