Have you ever wondered how Google Shopping knows just what you’re looking for? Or who’s behind the links at the top of your search results?

Are you so detail-oriented that, as a child, you always knew exactly where Waldo was? Does the thought of digging deep into data and delivering real-world results leave you feeling warm and fuzzy?

Do you want a meaningful internship that gives you actual, on-the-job marketing agency experience? (Think: project management, reporting, analysis, etc. — all the important, behind-the-scenes stuff that makes the machine run.) 

If so, we’d love to meet you. The PPC Internship is a 3-month, full-time paid internship opportunity (with the chance to turn into a permanent role) for the recent (or soon-to-be) college graduate that is looking to cut their teeth in the world of paid search. At Inflow, you’ll get the opportunity to learn from our team of paid search pros who have a ton of knowledge to share... including where the best Chinese takeout can be found. No, seriously. This team knows their takeout.

Responsibilities (Your Mission):
 

• Execute basic campaign tasks as assigned by paid strategists including campaign build outs, uploads and more.
• Conduct keyword research, analyze AdWords reporting, and dive headfirst into Google Analytics.
• Eventually work up into ownership of AdWords and social campaigns (think Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest).
• Assist team with data gathering and analysis.
• Learn, learn, learn: Ask questions, attend client and strategy meetings, research how to be a Google Analytics guru, take on new stuff, make suggestions, fail, take notes, succeed, repeat.
   

What You Must Have (No, Really):
 

• Education: A 4-year degree — marketing, business, communication, computer science, math or political science. Something somewhat relevant.
• GPA: 3.25+, please!
• Experience: General knowledge and basic understanding of PPC and a passion for all things internet.
• Data skillz: You should be able to work with a large amount of data and analyze accordingly.
• Tech-savvy: You know how to write a function in Excel, have a good understanding of PowerPoint and Word., and live in the G-suite.
• Commitment: To our clients, our vision, our work. You’re ready to be a team player and an in-house cheerleader. Note: Pom poms are optional.
• Organization: A keen eye for detail and a stickler for staying organized and on task (even if that task is ping-pong).
• Passion: Ongoing motivation to learn and improve yourself and your approach to Paid Search – even if it’s off the clock
• Excellent oral and written communication skills, attention to detail and ability to effectively multitask

What We Dream About:

• Familiarity with Google AdWords/Analytics – AdWords certification is even better!
• A basic understanding of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
   

And About Culture. . .
 

We know that culture isn’t really about beer meisters and beanbag chairs. It’s about people. And wanting to come to work. And the F word. No, the other one–freedom. To be yourself. To make mistakes. To laugh out loud. To break into random applause when someone leaves this office in the evening. To work 40 hours and not need to check your email from the top of Bierstadt or on the drive back to Denver. To be surrounded by talented people with multiple superpowers. Happy hours don’t necessarily happen every week. We got kids and dogs and stuff. But we do replenish and celebrate. Beers. Bowling. Rockies games.

Why We’re Perky

• Competitive salary
• Paid vacation and sick days. Festival-fanatic? Boarder? Hockey mama? Flu bug? No problem.
• 15Five takes the pulse of our company. We listen, consider and respond. Every week. Period.
• Quarterly culture surveys, to help us always get better
• Quarterly Profit Sharing – we share the success with you.
• The whole insurance thing: retirement contributions, short-term, long term disability, life and health.  
• Build-your-own perks: get a bucket of cash and spend it on what you want (mostly). As long as it benefits you or your family, it’s yours to spend.
• Family Support:  New kiddo? Take some time, on us, to get to know your new family member. Maternity/paternity leave, along with adoption and reproductive assistance.
• We love pets. Our office is dog-friendly! (Cats, not so much.) We also offer a one-time pet adoption fee reimbursement.
• Rooftop deck:  Take a break or work from the building rooftop deck. Lawn chairs included.
• Stand up:  All staff have desks that can become stand-up desks at the push of a button.
• Stocked fridge. LaCroix and Sweet Action and Upslope. The occasional VooDoo.
• Free parking!
• Gym Membership: Go climb, stretch, or lift heavy stuff on us at Movement.
• Paid Holidays – you start out with 7 but after year 1 you’ll pick up more floating holidays to use for what’s important to you.
• Dude, it’s a well of expertise around here. Ask and you shall be educated. Plus, we have a lot to learn from you, too. Teach us your ways.
• Birthdays are a big deal. Desserts (or breakfast burritos, your choice) are served. Stick around long enough and it becomes a paid day off!
• Publish and build your personal brand via our blog and social media. Stand on our shoulders. Get noticed online. Mix with fellow industry geeks. You matter.

Reports To . . .

Director of Paid Search. Caesar Barba is an Excel Wizard. Vlookups are child’s play to him. But behind the beard, the spreadsheet skills, and mathematics diploma lies a wealth of knowledge of online marketing. He’s been in the business for years, is AdWords certified, and a Google Partner.

He’s not all analytics, though. Caesar is a sushi enthusiast, a volleyballer, and his dog once took home an Amazon gift card for winning an office pajama contest. We still don’t know what Fawkes ended up spending it on.

But Enough About You, What about Us?

For the fifth consecutive year, Inflow has been named one of the Denver-area’s fastest growing private companies PLUS were one of 200 Google Managed Agencies AND one of only 50 firms worldwide to be named as a “Moz Recommended Company”. This year we made the Inc. 5000 list for the third year in a row.

But awards get boring, eh? So what’s our story?
 

Mike Belasco (great guy whose daughter is obsessed with Star Wars) founded the company back in 2003 when he saw this huge, honkin, Royal-Gorge size gap between agency offerings and client needs. Originally, seOverflow (our previous brand) was just that—an SEO outsourcing company. Now we bring Inbound Marketing (i.e. omni-channel marketing that puts the customer first with deliberate, non-interruption-based tactics) to the eCommerce world. It’s no-mans land, but we like it a lot.

Oh and don’t mess with Mike. His grandfather engineered the first space shuttle toilet and he doesn’t eat raspberries. No one knows why.
