About KONO Nutrition

KONO Nutrition is a fast-growing health and wellness brand based in Boise, Idaho, built around a simple philosophy: put health first.

We create holistically formulated supplements for people who care deeply about what they put into their bodies. From grass-fed protein and functional hydration to magnesium, pre-workout, and other products designed to support healthier lives.

But we're building more than a supplement company. We're building a brand and community around better health, transparency, education, and helping people make more intentional choices about the way they live; physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. 

As KONO continues to grow, we're looking for a creative, ambitious Social Media & Brand Marketing Intern who wants hands-on experience learning how a modern consumer brand actually grows.

The Opportunity

This isn't an internship where you'll spend your time making spreadsheets, sitting in meetings, or watching someone else do the interesting work.

You'll be directly involved in creating content, developing social media strategy, telling the KONO story, and learning how a growing consumer brand turns attention into community and customers.

You'll work alongside the KONO team and gain exposure to multiple areas of modern marketing, including organic social media, content creation, brand strategy, affiliate marketing, influencer partnerships, TikTok Shop, storytelling, and e-commerce.

You'll have the freedom to bring ideas to the table—and actually see those ideas come to life.

What You'll Be Doing

Content Creation & Editing
Help concept, film, edit, and publish short-form content for platforms like Instagram and TikTok. You'll learn how to turn ideas, products, people, and everyday moments into content people actually want to watch.

Social Media Strategy
Help us identify trends, develop new content concepts, study what's working, and think strategically about how KONO can continue growing its social presence and community.

Product & Lifestyle Content
Help us capture KONO products through photo and video for use across social media, product launches, campaigns, and other brand channels. If you have experience behind a camera, you'll have opportunities to put those skills to work on real projects.

Brand Building & Storytelling
Learn how great brands communicate more than product features. You'll help tell stories around KONO's products, mission, founders, customers, education, and the bigger idea behind putting health first.

Affiliate & Creator Marketing
Get hands-on exposure to how brands find, recruit, and work with creators and affiliates, and how creator partnerships can become a major customer acquisition channel.

TikTok Shop & Social Commerce
Learn about one of the fastest-changing areas of e-commerce: selling products directly through social platforms and working with creators to generate content and sales.

Marketing Strategy
You'll get exposure to the bigger picture behind growing an e-commerce brand including content strategy, customer acquisition, creative testing, product launches, retention, and how organic and paid marketing work together.

Who We're Looking For

We're looking for someone who is creative, curious, proactive, and genuinely excited about social media and brand building.

You might be a great fit if you:

• Understand what creates good content on Instagram and Tiktok
• Have experience filming and editing video.
• Have an eye for aesthetics, storytelling, hooks, pacing, and what makes someone stop scrolling.
• Are interested in marketing, entrepreneurship, e-commerce, health, fitness, nutrition, or consumer brands.
• Enjoy coming up with ideas rather than waiting to be told exactly what to do.
• Are comfortable being behind the camera and potentially occasionally in front of it.
• Want to understand why marketing works, not just how to make a post.
• Are dependable, organized, and able to take ownership of projects.

Major Bonus

If you own or have access to a camera and have experience with videography, photography, filmmaking, or shooting products, we'd especially love to hear from you.

Experience creating polished product photography, lifestyle content, cinematic video, or social-first brand content is a big plus. A portfolio isn't required, but if you've shot products, brands, events, people, or creative projects before, send us your work.

Experience with tools like CapCut, Canva, Adobe Premiere, Lightroom, Photoshop, Final Cut, or similar creative software is also a plus, but not required.

What You'll Learn

Our goal is for you to leave this internship with significantly more than something to add to your résumé.

You'll get real-world experience with:

Short-form content creation • Social media growth • Photography & video • Brand strategy • Storytelling • Influencer marketing • Affiliate marketing • TikTok Shop • E-commerce • Product marketing • Creative strategy • Consumer psychology • Marketing analytics

Most importantly, you'll get to see how these pieces work together inside a real, growing brand.

You'll have opportunities to create work that is actually published, contribute ideas that influence the brand, and build a portfolio of real-world marketing experience.
