WEAKNESSES

Weaknesses are internal factors that can be controlled by the organization. The weaknesses identified for the internship and the program at the beginning of the semester was used in the SWOT analysis. It is beneficial determining what weaknesses the organization was facing in order to strengthen them. In the goals and strategy section of the paper the marketing team focused on goals that would strengthen our weaknesses. One of the major weaknesses the internship had been facing for a number of semesters was the lack of internal communication between different teams. This semester the marketing team focused on closing this gap. In order to accomplish this goal the team developed an internal competition. Interns were divided into two teams at random (the green team and the orange team.) This competition started at the beginning of recruitment. There were a series of easily achievable tasks. A few of the tasks included helping the marketing team with classroom presentations, volunteering at booths, speaking on the radio, and taking pictures for social media. This competition was continued to the end of the semester by encouraging interns invite guests to the show. This has provided large audience sizes during the live show even after recruitment season. The result of the internal competition was successful. Out of the 30 interns, most participated in the internal competition. This is the second semester the competition has been in place. The communication and involvement between the teams seems to be beneficial in marketing the program. In future semesters the competition should be continued to encourage interaction between teams. Below are the weaknesses that were identified at the beginning of the semester. In bold in the weaknesses, the team addressed several of the weaknesses in marketing strategies over the season. Weaknesses in a SWOT analysis are qualities that prevent organizations from accomplishing their full potential, goals or objectives. To be a weakness the quality can be controlled by the organization. Time commitment • The amount of time interns need to put into Studio One can be difficult for college students. •

However, interns benefit from hands-on experience and learn time management. 4

During booths and classroom presentations we emphasized the time commitment is what you put into it. Different positions entail more time than others. It is important to emphasis how managing your time in college can prepare you for your future.

Communication between teams • The only time interns formally meet is at orientation. •

By fixing the communication barriers, students can be brought together on all teams o

Internal competition helped participation

One large reporting team helped unite video journalists

End of season party

Unpaid • Students may want to also have a part-time job while interning and being a student. This causes financial stress and more complications with time management. • •

We emphasized to potential applicants you can take it for credit Studio One now offers a $500 scholarship

Maintaining viewers/fans • When interns are no longer a part of Studio One, their family and friends might lose interest in the show •

The marketing team encouraged interns to invite their friends and family to “like” Studio One on Facebook. Facebook posts help encourage viewers to watch videos online. The digital communications team worked to put up YouTube videos as the show was being aired. This allowed viewers to watch and share stories right away.

Inconsistent domains •

It can be difficult searching for Studio One on the website and social media sites with different domains, Studio One and Studio 1.

•

This weakness was resolved

There is not a visible Studio One sign outside the building • We did not believe our resources would be best spent getting a sign, due to Parking office rules and budget.

OPPORTUNITIES 5

An opportunity is defined as an external element that an organization does not have control over but can have a positive impact on the program. Public Events • UND Involvement Expo Classroom presentations • Focused on 200 level or lower to increase presence among freshmen and sophomores Networking • LinkedIn Social Media • Instagram • Encouraged intern participation Informing high schools • We had 2 high schools attend our show, and more scheduled for next semester

THREATS A threat is defined as an external issue that an organization does not have control over. Paid internships • We have made a Studio One scholarship available for a student to receive $500 a semester. This could be an incentive to students who are worried about needing to work another job. Students don’t know about the internship • We had 18 classroom presentations, booths on campus, many advertisements, table tents, etc. to reach out to students. This allows all students to see the presence of Studio One on campus.

How did your portion of the SWOT influence marketing team decisions? -Determining the threats allowed the marketing team to brainstorm strategies with how they would go about the recruitment process. In order to break down the threats, Studio One was divided into to sections, the internship and the show. Some threats to the internship were other paid internships, the location, a credit max, and intimidation of students applying. Threats to the show included weather prohibiting audience members from getting to the show, limited parking, different mediums to watch television, competition with other new station at 5p.m., and limited markets. Based on these threats, we were better able to plan accordingly. During the recruitment process, instead of avoiding threats, we did our best to turn some of them into opportunities. As for the internship being unpaid, we highlighted the opportunity to earn credit and to have a unique experience that would be invaluable before entering the real-world. Another example of turning a threat into an opportunity is the fact that we have limited markets. Although we are limited to certain markets currently, this gives us an area to expand on and an opportunity for the growth of Studio One. What was helpful about your portion of the SWOT to the team? -Getting insight into the programs areas of threats allows the team to focus on ways to improve the already incredible opportunity we give to students. It is important to be aware of threats so that they do not blindside the team. By taking control of them and acknowledging them, the team has been able to prepare for them and create opportunities for growth. Although threats are classified as issues that are out of Studio One's control, things such as students lack of knowledge on registering for credit, low awareness of internships outside of TV, and limited markets can all be decreased as long as the marketing team stays aware of them and creates new ways to address them head on. How could you improve your portion of the SWOT? - In upcoming semesters, the marketing team could work on figuring out more areas of the internship and the show that could be threats. The more threats that are able to be determined, the more knowledge we will have on areas that need improvement. The goal is to figure the threats out before they figure Studio One out.

How to land that first job. By: Nick Johnson The biggest excitement (or fear for some) is getting that first job after from college. There can be difficulties in finding the right path to take and ultimately getting hired. Studio One alumna, Ashley Trdan, is a recent graduate from the University of North Dakota and is familiar with this process. Trdan was recently hired as a Regional Admissions Representative for the University of North Dakota. Trdan says she owes her job to her college experience. Her duty as a Regional Admissions Representative is to be a direct connection to UND for prospective students in her region. “I attend college fairs, travel to high schools and community colleges promoting the University of North Dakota. If they want more information on specific majors, scholarship deadlines, student organizations, tuition and fees or how to apply they can [contact] me and I will help them find the answers,” she says. Trdan took her positive college experience and directly translated it into a career. She says being fresh out of school makes it very easy to relate to the students she is meeting. “I am a proud UND graduate and I feel like it shows. When I talk about UND, you can tell that I genuinely care about the university and believe in what the school has to offer to students.” She says being a UND graduate is what prepared her most for this job. Her experiences throughout college shaped who she is today. While attending UND, Trdan took part in Studio One for four semesters. In her time with the program she had a variety of positions. She was a feature reporter, co-anchor and member of the marketing team. While on the marketing team she was a tour guide on show days and also wrote press releases. She said there were so many things she learned as an intern with Studio One. Time management is one of the most prominent. “Being a student you are already so busy with student organizations and class that taking on an internship can be challenging. Studio One taught me how to manage my time more efficiently by giving us the freedom to schedule our shoots, interviews etc. But also giving us deadlines and scheduled meetings to keep us on track,” says Trdan. Studio One taught her valuable skills that are necessary in the professional world.

Trdan offers tips for landing that first job: 1. Look for a company you would enjoy working for. You want to enjoy what you do. Networking and asking people you know if they know of any job availabilities can be beneficial. They know what interests you and if you may be a good fit. 2. Come prepared. Be ready for the interview, arrive early and have extra copies of your resume. Make 12

sure you dress professionally and be ready for the questions they may ask. Think of specific situations where you had to work with someone difficult and how you handled it. Think of a time you worked on a team and how you benefitted that team. Also, remember times when you worked independently. These are common situations an interviewer will ask. By having answers prepared, you will know how to answer and be able to look your best. 3. Be confident, you got this! Having confidence in yourself can make a huge difference. Body language, tone of voice and your actual responses can all show confidence that employers like to see. Also, have the inner confidence in yourself knowing that you are qualified and can get the job done. Trdanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s advice is a great example of how to use your strengths and assets to find the job you want. She is at a place where she can shine effortlessly because her enthusiasm is genuine. It is easier to work for something you truly believe in.

Following your passions By: Lizz Denning People dream of turning their passion into a career. Studio One alumna, Rachel (Cutcliffe) Harper, ’07, works as an executive director of the Eastern Region Sport & Recreation Council in Montague, Prince Edward Island. It is her passion for sports that got her to where she is today. Rachel Harper came to UND in 2003 to play for the women’s hockey team. During her junior year, she got injured. While the injury took her off the ice, it meant she had time to intern at Studio One. She says her time at Studio One prepared her in many ways for the real world. She interned for 2 semesters, working as a Sports reporter, teleprompter, News reporter, and Assistant News Director. “I had the best experience at Studio One. I learned more than I could in a classroom and it taught me a lot about time management and how to balance everything,” she says. After graduation, Harper was planning on going into sports reporting. She worked for Good Life Fitness as a management trainee, Elite High Performance Center as an administrative director, Transcona Nationals Football Club as a website content manager, and Football Manitoba as an operations assistant, programs & communications manager, and executive director. Now, she works to promote, encourage, and assist communities to participate in activities related to sport, recreation, physical activity, and healthy living in the region of Prince Edward Island, Canada. She considers herself to be a one woman show covering marketing, communications, financials, implementation, and serving as the face of the organization. Studio One also triggered her passion for writing. Harper writes for her own blog and is a feature writer of monthly articles for The G! Magazine (a magazine published for PEI residents on topics such as food, fashion, entertainment, fitness and technology.) In addition to her full time job, Cutcliffe-Harper also pursues another passion: baking. She is the owner and a baker for Lovely Day Desserts, a new company she founded in April 2013. She says that she would love to be able to write and bake for a living.

Harper offers tips for following your passions: 1. Trust yourself enough to take a chance - You are awesome. You will be scared, doubt your talents, and sometimes listen to the voices in your head that tell you that you can't. Trust yourself. You can do and be whatever you set your mind too, but you have to get out of your OWN way long enough to realize you can. Don't be afraid to take a risk. If you fail, you'll learn valuable lessons and you'll never have to look in the mirror one day and wonder, "what if". 2. Do 'you' - Plenty of people will offer opinions, advice, and pass judgment on your dreams, your goals, and ambitions. Well, who the heck are they anyway?! People become scared and uncomfortable when someone else goes against the grain, and puts themselves out there. Sometimes the people who doubt are the people closest to you, so it can be particularly difficult. Keep your head down, ignore the peanut gallery, only listen to the most important voices, work hard, and believe. 3. Love what you do. If you don't, find a way - You don't have to work a 9-5 job you hate. You can always find a way to do what you love. It may mean keeping that boring 9-5'er to collect a pay check while you burn the midnight oil doing an unpaid internship just to gain experience, but the end result will be loving what you do. Do whatever you have to do, to be wherever you want to be, and then be great at it...your 40 year old self will thank you later.

Studio One alumna takes skills overseas By: Lizz Denning

Many people have a desire to experience life in other countries. Studio One alumna, Desiree Mostad, ’07, works as a photographer in Norway. She founded her photography business in 2009. “I’ve been fortunate to meet lots of really cool and interesting people and photograph not only families and weddings but also a bit of fashion and editorial work. That really keeps me going and inspired the most,” she says. While at the University of North Dakota, Mostad focused on broadcast journalism. It wasn’t until the summer before her senior year that she picked up a DSLR camera for the first time. Her last year at the university was spent focusing on photography. After graduation she worked at the Ralph Engelstad Arena for 2 years, producing videos for the hockey games and running graphics. Then in 2009, she moved to Norway with her boyfriend Yrjan Johnssen (also a Studio One alum.) Some challenges that Mostad had after moving was adjusting to the initial culture shock, learning things like the metric system and the public transportation system. Also trying to find a job when she spoke little Norwegian proved difficult. Mostad says she’s lucky because Stavanger is incredibly international and almost everyone speaks English. In the meantime, she is slowly learning Norwegian. The climate in Stavanger is also different. It is one of the rainiest cities in the world. Mostad says another hard thing about living in another county is being away from family. She stays in touch with friends and family even with the 7-hour time difference with the help of Skype, Facetime, and iMessage. Many cool things also come along with moving to another country. Mostad says, “I love walking downtown and seeing all the different people and fashion. The landscape of Norway is nothing short of amazing and practically life changing. Every day I get to wake up to a beautiful view of the sea. Yrjan and I like hiking together and seeing the fjords!” Mostad loves the international feel of living in Norway. She gets to work with all different types of people and travel around Europe. “Since Stavanger is so international I get to take photos of people and families from all over the world. Within the last two weeks I photographed a lady from Colombia, a French family, a Scottish family and Norwegian businessmen. It’s so neat to see how everyone is 16

different and each family has their own ways of living and culture. Though Norway is a bit disconnected from the mainland Europe, it has still allowed me to be close enough to travel to London, Israel, Italy, Germany, Croatia and other places much easier. Flying to London is in a way like going from Grand Forks down to Minneapolis! It’s pretty crazy and cool. I feel very fortunate.” Mostad says she values the skills that she learned while being a part of Studio One. She was an intern for 3 semesters, working as a photographer, camera operator, and graphic designer. “I still use the technical skills I learned at Studio One like framing up a shot and thinking of the right exposures every day. I also am so incredibly thankful for the business skills I gained and knowing how to effectively work with people successfully. It’s so important in the real world to always promote a positive work environment and I think that is one thing the advisors and Barry Brode at Studio One really helped me see,” she says. Mostad encourages interns to keep working hard in Studio One and ask lots of questions. She says that Studio One is a great tool to learn so much and build the right habits that will help interns later down the road. The skills learned in Grand Forks, ND are transferable to the worldwide market. To see Desi's work, visit her facebook page.

Résumé and interview preparation to help you shine By: Nick Johnson The process of completing a résumé and interviewing for a new position may be stressful to some. By being prepared and having a positive attitude this becomes an opportunity to highlight your strengths to a potential future employer. Studio One alumna, Kathryn Vigness, helps students prepare for this process at the University of North Dakota Career Services. Vigness works as a career coordinator. She says, “The most useful tool for students is themselves.” Vigness engaged in Studio One for two semesters, both on the Marketing Team. She worked as a tour guide on show days, wrote Alumni E-Newsletters and was the Student Marketing Director. Two of the most valuable skills she gained from the program were interpersonal and team building skills. She says, “The interaction with the staff, team members, guests, and the audience played a big role in where I’m at today. To be able to effectively communicate and interact with others is huge when working at the University, but can be applied in everyday life, as well.” She took full advantage of the opportunities presented through Studio One and grew as a person and a professional. “The team building by encouragement, problem solving, and communicating has helped in multiple team settings since my time at Studio One,” she says. Using these skills has helped advance her career to where she is today. After graduation, Vigness worked as a Marketing Coordinator at Altru Health Foundation. She helped build a base for overall marketing and event planning. Today, as a Career Coordinator with Career Services, she puts on many faces for one position. “I meet one on one with students guiding them on their journey of career development. That includes résumé and cover letter building, practice interviews, job search, and networking techniques. I also help with the different events that Career Services has to offer, such as multiple career fairs, etiquette dinners, and professional dress events,” says Vigness. This position can be a remarkable benefit to students who are unsure of what to include on their résumé or what experiences are relevant. Vigness believes that each experience 18

you have helps show who you are. “I firmly believe that I have gained and learned from each opportunity that I have taken, which has shaped me into who I am today,” she says. Her education, internships and work opportunities have all helped to impact who she is and how she works.

Vigness offers advice for résumé and interview preparation: Résumé. Detail your résumé to the job you are applying for. Align your experiences and strengths with those of the job and company you are applying for and be true to yourself. Interview. Always, always, always do your research on the company beforehand. Be prepared to answer questions with specific examples and experiences that you have demonstrated specific skills. Practice beforehand, interviewing is a skill; the more you do it, the better you are. Send a hand written thank you note afterwards. Be true to yourself; they want to hire YOU, not someone you think they want. Vigness’ insight for résumé and interview preparation comes from knowledge and experience. She has built her own résumé with numerous opportunities through education, internships and work. Aligning your strengths to the company, having confidence and being prepared will put you in a great position to do well in the job hunt.

Ron Burgundy Anchors with Studio One Alumni By: Nick Johnson and Lizz Denning It was just a normal work week for the employees at KXMB (CBS Affiliate in Bismarck, North Dakota), preparing for the Saturday newscast. Amber Schatz (KXMB anchor and Studio One alumna) and the weekend crew were informed there would be a special guest anchor for the show. This guest would be Anchorman’s Ron Burgundy (Will Ferrell). He came to the studio in full costume and ready to do the news as a promotional opportunity for his movie, Anchorman 2.

“When my sales director told us at our meeting that week, I thought it was a joke. I wouldn’t believe it until I saw the mustache in person,” says Schatz. She would have the chance to co-anchor with “the man that has a voice that can make a wolverine purr and suits so fine, he makes Sinatra look like a hobo.” KXMB’s sports anchor, Jon Schaeffer (Studio One alum) experienced what he called a once in a lifetime opportunity. Burgundy made his presence known during the sports segment. “He gave me a nice gesture of support, rubbing my shoulder and patting my back. I’ll never wash that suit again,” says Schaeffer. Burgundy was at the station for about an hour and a half. This was enough time to do a quick rehearsal and have a break before the actual newscast. During the break, they had an opportunity to hang out, take pictures, and get autographs. “I’d say the most exciting part about having him there was when [Burgundy] and I just sat there and talked USC football for a good five to ten minutes in between rehearsal and the actual run,” said Schaeffer. Schatz said that he was really nice and soft spoken, and that he seemed excited to do the news. Burgundy told Schatz that this was the first thing he wanted to promote this movie. KXMB’s Sales Team and Paramount planned the huge public relations stunt for 6 months when the cast and crew only found out 4 days prior. It had to be kept a secret because if it leaked before it aired, 20

Paramount would have pulled the plug on the whole thing. There was no money exchanged, because both Paramount and KXMB viewed it as a great promotional opportunity. Burgundy brought along his comedic genius while still producing a quality newscast. “He threw in his own little one-liners. He did a great job sticking with the scripts though and keeping the integrity of the newscast, which was also very important,” said Schaeffer. Schatz agreed with Schaeffer, commenting on Burgundy’s professionalism and dedication to all that he does. Schatz spent one semester at Studio One. She worked as a talent coordinator where she arranged guest segments for the live newscast. Schaeffer was a part of the program for four semesters. He worked as a reporter, a camera operator, and the sports anchor. Studio One prepared them to take on any opportunity, while staying classy.

Internal goals evaluation AUDIENCE DEVELOPMENT COMPETITION The audience development competition was established to encourage interns to invite guests to the show. The audience adds an addition aspect to the program when Studio One produces a live show. There are many people who are important to invite to the show such as guests who were interviewed, potential student interns, the public, friends and family. Everyone involved in the program has the opportunity to invite many of these people to the show. The goal of this competition is to ensure interns are inviting people they know to attend a live production. This year we actually saw a decline in our audience members. We believe the reasons to be because in spring semester 2013 we had a number of school that were in attendance and we also had less interns to invite friends and family to the show. During the spring 2012 semester the average audience size was six guests per. During the fall 2012 the average audience size was 13.37 guests per show. During the spring 2013 semester there was an average of 19.7 guests per show. This semester, fall 2013 we have an average of 9 guests per show.

Marketing team competition The marketing team competition was established to encourage all Studio One interns to help with recruitment and increase communication between all of the teams. All of the interns were divided up into three teams. We had two teams orange and green. This year we took members from all the teams and combined them into two. The goal is for each intern to earn points for their team. The teams with the most points will an end of the season pizza party. The way an intern could win points was by volunteering at a booth, speaking at a classroom presentation, nominating someone for the internship, wearing the Studio One shirt on t-shirt days, participating in recruitment events, inviting guests to the show, and sending in photos for Instagram. This is a great way to strengthen the internal bonds between teams. It also helped the marketing team with recruitment of the internship and the program. The winner for the inaugural season was the green team.

University of North Dakota’s award-winning television program features Miss North Dakota and Curious George fans

This week on Studio One, Miss North Dakota Laura Harmon shares her experience competing for Miss America and what she is trying to accomplish with her title. Also, learn why Grand Forks is curious about Curious George. The award-winning news show airs on Channel 3 in Grand Forks.

GRAND FORKS, N.D. — In 2013 Laura Harmon was crowned Miss North Dakota and competed in the Miss America Pageant in Atlantic City, New Jersey.

University of North Dakota’s award-winning television program features rural attorney shortage and the benefits of seafood for pregnant women This week on Studio One, the Dean of the University of North Dakota School of Law addresses a serious rural issue.
