I followed the requests of customers based on the color or themes they desired for their custom posters.

To build the company I sourced out manufacturers to produce the product to make the utmost profit and then established the sale prices. I managed the social media accounts to advertise posters and prints. Customer service was done via phone, email, and video chat. 

The posters were customizable to every extent including the size, gloss finish, and style.
