The Opportunity:
Not many internships give you the chance to work across two states at once. AJR Media Group is the publishing team behind TourTexas.com and TourLouisiana.com — regional tourism platforms that help travelers discover destinations, events, and experiences across the South. We work with destination marketing organizations, local tourism boards, and travel brands every day, and we tell their stories through newsletters, social media, web content, and client-facing creative. As our Marketing & Communications Intern, you'll work directly alongside our creative and content team — contributing to real campaigns, supporting live projects, and getting a ground-level view of how tourism marketing actually works. This isn't a filing-and-fetching role. You'll be in the work.
What You'll Work On:
Day-to-day tasks will vary based on the season and team priorities, and may include:
- Writing and editing copy for social media, newsletters, and web content across Tour Texas and Tour Louisiana • Supporting email newsletter production — from copy drafts to layout review
- Assisting with content scheduling and social media calendar management
- Drafting client-facing communications and marketing materials
- Helping research and develop content ideas tied to events, seasons, and regional destinations
- Contributing to UGC sourcing and content organization efforts
- Supporting internal creative projects as they come up across both brands
What You'll Walk Away With:
By the end of your internship, you'll have hands-on experience in:
- Tourism and destination marketing — a niche with real career depth
- Editorial content strategy across multiple channels and audiences
- Multi-brand content management and voice differentiation
- Email marketing fundamentals: strategy, copy, structure, and audience targeting
- Professional client communication in a B2B media environment
