Social Media Marketing and Growth Intern | Eventio | Handshake

Marketing & Community Growth Intern

Duration: 10–12 weeks | Remote or Hybrid | Part-time or Full-time

Eventio is an AI-powered event planning marketplace connecting clients, planners, and vendors nationwide. We're a tech startup headquartered in Erie, PA — and we're growing fast.

As our Marketing & Community Growth Intern, you'll work directly with our Founder & CEO to build Eventio's brand presence from the ground up. You'll plan, create, and schedule content for Instagram and Facebook, design marketing assets in Canva, engage with our growing online community, and support campaigns tied to product launches and regional expansion. You'll also track engagement metrics to learn what content drives real results.

This is a hands-on role with real ownership, not busywork. You'll leave with a portfolio of live work, direct mentorship from a founder, and a front-row seat to how an early-stage startup markets and scales.
