I now have a few pieces to add to my personal portfolio, and I loved being able to make some graphics using Canva for www.iwantagreenthumb.com and the abilities.com landing page for Plant3r!
What I wish was different
I do think that there was less blog and video editing than I intended to go in with, mostly Canva designing and Instagram posts. I also believe that an effort for more intentional Instagram posting should be made so that the account isn't spammed with posts every week, but is separated out to a couple times per week so ideas aren't running dry or accidentally being reused.
Advice
Come in with ideas for what type of Instagram posts lead to better engagement! The company wants to increase their userbase and grow from what it is, so any knowledge helps!
