Introducing Our Newest Team Member!

Lerato Tsotetsi has recently joined the Raleighwood Media Group + Raleighwood Event Group team as our summer marketing associate. She is a recent graduate of NC State University, where she obtained a degree in Fashion & Textile Management from the College of Textiles.

Lerato has previously worked for the Shelton Leadership Center where she served as a program assistant developing marketing materials and handling press. She has also interned with various non-profits, focusing on social media marketing and event planning. Lerato developed a keen interest for marketing through these experiences as well as through projects and marketing competitions during her undergraduate career. She is also interested in the fashion industry as she has been heavily involved with the NC State fashion community, volunteering and coordinating fashion shows, participating in various seminars and company visits, as well as doing a few styling projects with local businesses. She looks forward to having more experiences with both fields and is excited to work on behalf of retail, restaurant, and hospitality clients with Raleighwood Media Group + Raleighwood Event Group.

In her free time, Lerato enjoys keeping up with fashion trends through social media, various magazines, and bloggers. She also enjoys downtime with a good book and is an avid runner. As community service is important to her, she also participates in volunteer projects with various youth projects and local animal shelters.

In her very first week with Raleighwood Media Group + Raleighwood Event Group, Lerato jumped in head first to the Raleigh Food & Wine Festival, creating social media posts leading up to the event, as well as spending a full day staffing the Sunday tasting event, tackling all sorts of assignments – from entry management to photo documentation to promotional table staffing – at Raleigh’s inaugural food and wine festival!

You’re Making Us Blush! A Raleighwood Review from Carmon’s Curl Up & Dye Salon

Thanks to Beth and Carmon from Carmon’s Curl Up & Dye Salon in Garner for the kind words:

Review of Raleighwood Media Group

It’s always nice to hear from old friends, but it’s a shame when they come calling because their former website designer is holding them hostage! Unfortunately, there are some less than stellar designers out there who give the rest of us a bad name. Luckily, we were able to work with the salon’s prior web designer to reclaim the domain name and create a new WordPress website based around the concept of a “content management system” (CMS). The big benefit of using a CMS is that Beth and Carmon are now able up post updates to their blog and update their website in just a few clicks – almost instantly! And when they need some help with the “heavy lifting” they know we’ll be around to help.

This model doesn’t work for every design firm, but we love giving our clients the ability to have a little freedom with their websites. Check out our website packages and let us know if we can help you out, too. And if you find yourself in Garner, NC and in need of a cut and color, visit the gang at Carmon’s Curl Up & Dye!

Now Offering Social Media Management Packages

Raleighwood Media Group is pleased to offer a new service, designed with small business owners and c-suite executives in mind: monthly social media management packages (click the link to find out more, including pricing).

Is your time better utilized managing your business rather than posting to Twitter — although you know it’s something you need to do every day to remind your audience that you’re in business and ready to fulfill their wants and needs? Read what Fred’s Beds president Lisa Stansbury had to say about the month of posting we took off her hands recently:

The month of June was so hectic for me that I wouldn’t have had the opportunity to tweet much at all. Raleighwood Media Group provided me with quality content that was exactly what my customers needed to see. The content was much higher quality than what I normally produce myself. It was one less thing on my plate that allowed me to focus on other pressing matters. Social media is something that is easy to drop by the wayside when you have customers that need attention. You cannot make up for lost time. If you don’t send a message, no one receives a message. Raleighwood Media Group filled a much needed niche for me.

Social media management package begin at only $189/month and are scalable to fit your unique needs. Send us an email at Info@RaleighwoodMedia.com or call us at 919-229-9725 to get started today!
