Journal 1:

It is the fall semester of the year 2018 and I’m currently interning as a social media marketer/designer at HungerPass. HungerPass was founded in 2014 and it is a dining app that allows its users to get discounts on certain restaurants as well help restaurants gain foot traffic during their off peak hours. It is a startup company that is based in the NYC and long Island area. Their main office is located in Long Island but however most of the meetings for the NYC interns are held in several Starbucks locations throughout the city which take place once a week. The primary business of the company is to help bring more diners into restaurants during their down times. The way HungerPass achieves this is by promoting the restaurant through social media and in return the restaurants who are partnered up with HungerPass will give discount incentives to the users of the HungerPass app.
