Final Portfolio
Writing Samples
I was assigned to write a SWOT analysis for an organization of my choosing. The feedback I received was to include hyperlinks pertaining to the information I presented and to include the core problems and possible solutions to said issues. I chose this sample because it is a proper introduction to the organization and shows my assessment of the strengths and challenges it faces.
For this assignment, we were tasked with writing an Op-Ed discussing a cause that is important to the organization. I chose this sample because it shows my ability to write in the voice of someone else. This is good practice for other PR responsibilities like speech writing or becoming a spokesperson.
For this sample, we were assigned to write a press release and a mock email pitch to a journalist that we found in a previous assignment. The feedback I received was to adjust my word choices to include more detail to the information presented. I chose this sample because it is a great example of work that I will be doing in my career. I can look back on this assignment for reference when I am tasked with something similar later in my career.
For this assignment, I was tasked with creating an infographic about a topic important to the organization. The only feedback I received was to include sources for my information. I chose this sample because it forced me to research and organize information about a specific topic related to my client.
