We're seeking a Publication Intern to work directly with the Editor/Publisher and gain hands-on experience in every aspect of magazine production. This is not a "coffee and copies” internship. You'll be immersed in running a niche publication from start to finish.

  • Design ads based on your skills and interest

Editorial & Content Creation

  • Pitch feature ideas and event coverage
  • Conduct interviews and write articles or recurring columns
  • Secure and organize photo assets
  • Proofread and assist with copy editing

Subscriptions & Reader Engagement

  • Help troubleshoot subscriber questions
  • Support reader communication and retention efforts

Sponsorship Development

  • Identify cost-effective promotional and sponsorship opportunities

Digital & Social Media

  • Maintain the online Calendar of Events
  • Update Club Listings
  • Expand the magazine's Facebook presence through posting and engagement

Archival & Research Projects

  • Build a searchable article database of past titles and authors

 What You'll Gain

  • Real-world publishing experience
  • Portfolio-quality writing and editorial credits
  • Insight into niche magazine business operations
  • Direct mentorship from an experienced editor
  • Experience in advertising, marketing, and audience development
  • A strong understanding of how independent media survives and thrives
     
    Who Should Apply

This position is ideal for a college student who:

  • Is pursuing communications, journalism, marketing, or a related field
  • Has an equine background or strong familiarity with horse sports
  • Is self-motivated and comfortable working remotely
  • Writes clearly and professionally
  • Is curious about both creative and business sides of publishing

This is an immersive opportunity for the right candidate who wants a meaningful experience—not just a line on a résumé.
