SHINES was launched in 2020 as a groundbreaking initiative during a time when businesses and communities faced unprecedented challenges. Designed to equip new businesses with essential skills for growth, SHINES aimed to help entrepreneurs not only thrive in the City of Lauderhill but also succeed on a broader scale. I directed this innovative program from its inception, managing the project’s development, implementation, and evolution. Over time, I successfully increased the number of businesses participating and expanded the program's outreach to better connect with the target audience.
Throughout this project, I utilized a diverse range of skills to drive its success:
Video Editing: Produced compelling and informative videos and reels to highlight the program’s impact.
Campaign Materials: Led the creation of diverse campaign materials to support SHINES and its participants.
Logo Design: Designed the “SHINES” logo, which has become synonymous with the program’s identity.
Brand Strategy: Developed a cohesive brand strategy to ensure the program resonated with its intended audience.
Campaign Strategy: Crafted and implemented a strategic campaign to maximize visibility and participation.
Content Writing: Authored content for Kajabi modules, including detailed lesson descriptions that aligned with the program’s objectives.
Leadership: Provided leadership and direction to the team, ensuring smooth execution and impactful results.
Social Media Management: Created and managed targeted creatives, boosting engagement across multiple platforms.
Marketing: Designed a comprehensive marketing plan and tracked registrations to measure program success.
Campaign Execution: Oversaw all aspects of the campaign, from ad targeting and boosting to creative rollouts.
Collateral Delivered:
Digital flyers, print flyers, 4×8 signage, instructor spotlights, newsletters, magazine ads, radio and TV commercials, event backdrops, Kajabi website and thumbnails, instructor pages, lesson descriptions for Kajabi modules, Lauderhill webpage content, day-of-event signage, TV reels, email blasts, and more.
