The real brief

What you will actually work on

No generic prompts. You are matched to a real registered firm and work on their brief.

Brief: "Brew & Co, a new D2C coffee brand launching in tier-2 Indian cities, has Rs.15,000 to spend on Instagram in August. Goal: 500 followers and 50 pre-launch signups." You deliver a positioning line, a 2-week calendar, 8 posts (static + reel script), and a short results framework.

This is an example brief in Marketing & Social. The exact brief and the firm name are shared with you once you apply and pay. We work with a small set of real registered Indian firms and match you to the right one for your role.

FAQ

Marketing & Social internship questions

Do I need design skills?

No. We teach you to use Canva templates effectively. The focus is on strategy and content, not graphic design.

Will my work be posted publicly?

Only if you choose. Your portfolio is yours. The certificate links to a private review summary, not your raw work.

Is the brand brief real?

The brand is fictional but the brief is structured exactly like a real one, with a real budget, goal, and constraints.
