From 2011 to 2014 I worked on the commercial side of Marrakech du Rire, the comedy festival, and its aftershow. My role combined sales strategy, management of the team and public relations for the gala and aftershow activity.
The work was operational. A plan for selling a gala is worth little until a team carries it out against an event date, so most of the job was turning the plan into daily selling and keeping the people doing it aligned. Public relations ran alongside, shaping how the gala and the aftershow were talked about before anyone bought.
What I take forward
Strategy is only as good as the team that has to execute it on a deadline, and selling and reputation are one job seen from two sides.
