Kole Life Foods (KLF) Inc. is a recently launched Company that will soon be producing unique drinks designed to aid specific brain functions.  These functional beverages, developed by an award-winning neuroscientist at UMSOM, aim to support clarity of thinking and focus (INSPIRE), elevate mood (HAPPY), aid restful sleep (DREAMS), and enhance intimacy (IGNITE).  

Many of us are aware of beverages designed to improve physical health.  Yet, there are no truly functional drinks that can actually stimulate and aid the workings of our most valuable asset – our brains!  The Company is looking for talented interns who believe that their background and skill set would enable them to be highly effective at marketing and increasing public awareness about these beverages for these first of a kind brain drinks.  Such talented individuals will be able to use networks, social media, and their interpersonal skills to engage people at all levels (including spreading the word to students on campus and other campuses) to consume a beverage designed to improve brain health.  Basically, instead of just “taking your body for a run” why not “take your mind for a run?”.

The successful candidates will be compensated for their time but depending on their drive and engagement will also have the opportunity to earn shares in the Company.   In short, the KLF Inc. team is looking for talented individuals who can help to shape and build its brand tribe.  The team will be trained and advised by both the neuroscientist founder of the Company and also the Executive Vice President for Marketing for the Company. 

Within your cover letter, please provide the following.
Because KLF Inc. is not just looking for high academicians but also people with the “right stuff”, prospective candidates would be expected to not only submit their resume but also a one page letter of interest that should describe why they are suitable. Importantly the letter should explain how he or she would work to distill the message of this unique concept of brain enhancement to the general public in a simple, easily understandable, and captivating manner.  Potential candidates also should provide an idea as to the number of hours they plan to work, and their level of comfort with hosting discussions, focus groups, blogging, doing in-store demonstrations, and promoting events, some of which may occur at the weekend
