So, who is Nic Mercado?
Nic is currently the Director of Strategic Operations at Social House. If you're unfamiliar with Social House, it is a creative strategy group based in LA. Their mission is to replace traditional social media with cultural dialogue and memorable experiences that resonate and inspire. They bring the world’s most influential brands to life, some of their clients include, Pepsi, Playboy, 7up, Sonos, and Urban Decay.
Starting her career with Vitaminwater, she worked with brands such as Microsoft, Unilever, Procter & Gamble, Warner Brothers, Sony Pictures and NBC Universal. Her main goal at Social House is to develop fresh creative concepts, keep up with the ever-changing social rat race, and to ultimately drive results that matter.
If you're in the marketing/social realm - this is the perfect episode for you. Nic talks about all the different kinds of paths you can go into in marketing, how to make that leap from social coordinator to strategist to then a director role, working for large corporations vs. agencies, creating viral campaigns, what it means to be resourceful, and how social media has played an impact in her personal & professional life. We then end the episode with some fun rapid-fire questions such as who are the 3 most important people in her life, what she dislikes about her job, advice she'd give to young Nic, and things that you may not know about her.
