Indianapolis – Roundpeg, a locally-based marketing firm, has announced its new slate of summer interns. Four talented young people from throughout the state of Indiana will lend their talents to Roundpeg in marketing, business planning, public relations, and graphic design.
“This is our largest crop of interns ever,” said Lorraine Ball, owner of Roundpeg. “We love having new blood and new ideas in the office, and look forward to teaching these students some new tricks, too.”
In addition to helping Roundpeg with its normal small business marketing load, interns will also give back to the community by taking on marketing work for local not-for-profits, including the Entrepreneurship Advancement Center and the Blind Children Alliance.
“We love helping not-for-profits with their marketing, but there aren’t always enough hours in the day,” said Ball. “Our interns will be able to give back to their community while improving their own skills.”
