We are now expanding to add cyber security and cloud security to become a fully integrated information security company. And on the sustainability side, we are adding eco friendly packaging products.

Pulp Shred - Social Media Marketing & Content Development

Who is 'In Pulp Mode'? ‘In Pulp Mode’ (IPM) is a joint initiative between Pulp Shred and Incipio Modo to reclaim, recycle and recreate design, art, and functional products from waste materials to achieve zero-landfill waste. Our vision is to reduce Calgary’s landfill burden and contribute to the wellbeing of our City. We do this by changing people’s attitudes about waste and transforming industrial waste, recycled, and rescued materials into works of art, design, and useful products. ‘In Pulp Mode’ designs anything, from furniture to everyday objects, from recycled and upcycled materials, which means that the products we make are unique and useful, manufactured using industrial and residential waste that would otherwise end up in a landfill or pollute our skies and water. Why bother with landfill diversion? Waste is everywhere – we are discarding items, products, and materials at an alarming rate! This use-and-throw attitude is creating a tremendous pressure on landfills, waterbodies, and natural habitats. We believe that through upcycling, sourcing responsible materials, and connecting with like minded partners and conscious consumers, together we can contribute to a greener, sustainable future. Where are we in our journey? IPM will initially focus on upcycling industrial waste from two streams: construction and paper waste. Specifically, residential construction and renovation site waste and shred paper dust and shred paper alternatives. As the concept grows and a healthy product- market fit is achieved, IPM may take on waste from other sectors/processes. As part of the early design iterations, the team has developed a few design prototypes, mixing shred paper dust with organic resins, colours, cement, saw dust, etc. Some of the early designs include, hand made novelty paper, paper lamps, sculptures, masks, cups, and outdoor tabletop. The company aims to further develop this concept and create its own line of shred paper art and products for commercial purposes. Additionally, Pulp Shred is also developing an exhibition space within its facilities to spread the awareness for paper recycling and upcycling. The company is also looking at partnering with like-minded companies in developing product ideas and/or custom design products. What kind of person(s) are we looking for? We are looking for someone that wants to work with us not because they have to (i.e. extra credits), but because they want to . This is a calling, a labour of love, a way of life, something bigger than the day to day routine. We want someone that likes to be involved in each and every aspect of what we are doing, wants to learn and wants to share. Specifically, we are looking for a creative and driven social media, graphic design and digital marketing person(s) to help us tell our story to the world and create our brand awareness. Knows how to create brand awareness and buzz on social media platforms - Instagram, FB, LinkedIn, Pinterest Creative thinker and designer and is adept at graphic design, creating promotional materials, posters, and marketing materials Well versed with social media design, marketing, and campaign creation Experienced with digital marketing - Google Ads, FB ads, et al Passionate for environment, driven, entrepreneurial mindset, collaborator, and team player

Project feedback
Working with Pulp Shred gave us a good introduction to the world of consulting, but the overall experience was tougher than expected. One of the biggest challenges we faced was the lack of collaboration throughout the project. It often felt like communication was missing. This made it hard to stay aligned on goals and timelines, and sometimes left us unsure of how our input could be used. While the experience did expose us to new aspects of consulting, it also showed us how important clear communication and teamwork are for a smooth process! We appreciate the opportunity to work together and hope this feedback is helpful for improving future projects.

The experience of working on this project had its challenges. Communication could have been more timely, and expectations were not fully aligned with the scope of our role as students. It would have been helpful to have more flexibility and understanding regarding our position, which would have fostered a more collaborative and productive working relationship.

I would suggest to focus on your best service and work on expanding that instead of trying to branch out into too many things.
