Press Releases

I wrote a press release for LaterDog.com, for its initial launch mid-September 2010, in my capacity as a Public Relations contractor. You can contact founder Jessica Chapman at jessica at laterdog dot com.

Additionally, I edited all of the Yoga Yoga press releases during my time there, in addition to drafting several when the PR representative was on maternity leave or otherwise unavailable. An archive can be found here 

Newsletters | Email Marketing 

Below is a sample of a newsletter I designed and edited from given content, using Constant Contact in my year-long position as Vice-President of Public Relations for the Kappa Delta Alumnae Association of the Texas Hill Country; this is the August 2010 Newsletter. I held this position on a volunteer basis.

At Yoga Yoga I generated content for several weekly and monthly newsletters as needed, in addition to editing them all. All newsletters from June 2012-October 2012 were my sole responsibility. An archive can be found here.

August Happenings!

Have you ever been interested in helping out with recruitment or getting more involved with our local chapter Sigma Epsilon? If so, please join us for one or all of the activities we have coming up!!
Come see the infamous KD pyramid, chants and help ladies improve their conversation skills to help them recruit the best potential new members! Not only will this help the ladies for recruitment, but it will build great life skills these ladies can use for interviews in the future. This activity will be from 10:30-12:00 on Aug 14th. Afterward we can go to lunch or tour the campus/capital if we choose!
            Our "Forever 21"event will be Sigma Epsilon's "Friends and Family" night at the house from 7-8. Come support the chapter and watch their dress rehearsal then join us at a local wine bar afterwards.
            Last but not least if you would like to volunteer for serving beverages and greeting PNMs during recruitment please email Meghan at m_e_malone@yahoo.com to receive the evite for shift information. You can also visit our website www.austinkd.com to view the schedule.

Over 350 newsletters were sent to alumnae who were initiated prior to 2000. For those of you who did not receive it, please see the newsletter attached for your viewing pleasure! We greatly apologize for any confusion or concern around this newsletter. If you feel as though your contact information is not up to date please email Meghan at m_e_malone@yahoo.com and be sure to contact nationals as well.
