About

Christy Brown is the senior director at the Silsbee Economic Development Corporation (EDC). She received a bachelors of arts in Communications from Baylor University. During summer 2018, I interned for Mrs. Brown at the EDC. Focused on my interests in marketing and communications, I helped redesign the EDC’s website, created new marketing material, shadowed an expert in the field, and performed other office jobs.

I chose to interview Mrs. Brown to receive her criticism on my website. We agreed to interview in person on Friday, April 12th, 2019 at 10:00pm.

Interview Experience

  • Overall the interview went very well. I presented my product website to her and received her criticism. She and I discussed the skills I have learned at the EDC and how I have expanded on them during the GT Independent Course.

  • We juxtaposed the methods of marketing that have evolved over the generations and how elements of traditional and postmodern marketing can combine to become even more effective.

  • She reminded me of the different "hats" marketers have; marketers can be "attorneys, relators, advertisers, accountants, etc." and need to incorporate skills of each job to be successful and flexible.
