ADVenture is out there
探险就在前方
SYNNRAY B.V.
From November 24, 2014 to June
12, 2015, I have done my internship
at Synnray B.V, parent company
of Gogodutch and Synnray. My
main activities were translating news
for Gogodutch and providing
assistance in the field of marketing
to Synnray.
Usually my day would start with checking
Dutch news platforms, such as
Metronieuws, AD, Volkskrant, Telegraaf,
Nu, etc. Other than that I would also keep
an eye on popular trends on social media, inlcuding Facebook, Twitter and Instagram on which would regularly appear interesting posts and social media trends. I would select items that are in line with the interest of the target group of Gogodutch and send the links of the articles or posts with a short summary in Chinese to the manager of the operational department of Gogodutch.
After sending the summaries and links I would select three interesting discounts for the target group from online advertisements and folders, which I would translate directly and send to the employee responsible for posting discount offers. After having finished this activy the manager of the operational department would have normally chosen some articles or posts that she would want me to translate, usually about three a day.
After finishing my translation work I would restart the process of selecting and sending interesting items, after which I would start translating again if the manager of the operational department assigned me to do so. Very often I would assist colleagues with other assignment for the rest of the day, such as doing a competition analysis for the marketing department, or search for information about requested topics.
Gogodutch or Synnray would sometimes also manage events. In total I have cooperated in 3 events. The first event is N+ Business Club, in which I welcomed Chinese guests and guided them to the elevators. I also help with the communication with the Dutch hospitality employees that took care of the dinner for the guests.
The second event was a trip to Maasmechelen Village Shopping Outlet with Chinese guests, which was part of a marketing campagne, launched by Synnray. During this event I was responsible for picking up guests from the trainstation and take them to the busses. After which I was responsible for communication with the busdriver and fixing communication errors that were made in preparation of the event.
The last event was an annual meeting with 400 members of Gogodutch. Here I cooperated in planning the program for the event and arranging transportation for the trainstation to the event. During the event I was responsible for picking up the guests from the train station and guiding them to the cars that were arranged to take the guests to the event.
