Event Publicity
I love going out to different events, and even more, helping to market them! Many organizations spend much time and effort planning a perfect event for the public, whether it be guests, donors, customers or clients — and then forget that a successful event also requires some marketing!
“Sandra is very effective, professional, and great to work with. Her efforts landed results and we were very satisfied with the amount of media the Women in Film Festival 2010 received on TV and in print this year.”
– Kay Leung, 2010 Women in Film Festival Co-Chair, Women In Film & Television Vancouver
“Sandra was our premiere Fundraising Coordinator and then our Marketing Supervisor at VSFF before she took over for me as the festival’s Director. While we worked together, Sandra always exceeded my expectations and was a vital element of VSFF’s success. It was with pleasure to see her take over as the Director in 2007 and I would recommend Sandra to anyone lucky enough to work with her.”
– Brian Danin, VSFF Founder
