Copywriting. It's tough, right? Everyone depends on it, but no one really realizes its value until you have pages and pages of content to fill and no one to do it. Stringing words into sentences is just the beginning; eventually you have to string those sentences into whole paragraphs, and that takes real skills, spelling not the least of them.

Marketing Coordinators are like the air traffic controllers of the brand initiative. They stay on top of all the administrative duties related to brand activity, manage multiple timelines, and ensure that deadlines are met. They drink a lot of coffee.

Whether your medium is online, mobile, or print, you need content or you've just got empty pages. It doesn't happen on its own.

With organizing, categorizing, and cross-referencing, a massive pool of data is easier to dive into. So nobody drowns in information.

It ensures compliance with corporate and editorial style guidelines and legal mandates.
