JOB OVERVIEW

I'm building a print-on-demand and dropshipping business from scratch. Multiple theme stores across TikTok Shop, Amazon, my own website, and possibly Etsy. I'm looking for one person to own the product side: find the trend, design the product, list it well, and keep it moving.

This is not a "wait for instructions" role. I want someone hungry who spots that Halloween and Thanksgiving are next and is already building for it.

What you'll do
- Research trending products and niches, then d ---------- what we launch
- Design print-ready artwork for apparel, mugs, posters, and similar products
- Build and publish listings in Printify or Printful, and push them to our sales channels
- Write SEO-optimized titles, tags, bullets, and descriptions for each platform
- Plan ahead by season: Halloween and Thanksgiving now, then Christmas, Valentine's, and so on
- Create simple organic content assets for TikTok and support our paid ad creative
- Source dropship products when print-on-demand isn't the right fit (AliExpress and similar)
- Handle day-to-day customer support email

What I need you to already know how to do
- Launch a store from zero, not just maintain one someone else built
- Run several theme stores at once without dropping the ball
- Design fast in Canva, and ideally Photoshop, Illustrator, or Affinity
- Use Printify or Printful properly: mockups, variants, profit margins, print files at correct DPI
- Do real product research, including with paid tools if we buy them
- Use AI tools in your actual workflow, not just as a novelty
- Write clear English for listings and customer emails

Bonus points
- You can illustrate and draw original designs, not only assemble stock elements
- You've sold on TikTok Shop or Amazon before
- You've run or assisted on paid ads

The offer
- Paid 1-week trial first, so we both find out fast if this is a fit
- Long-term full-time role if the trial goes well
- Bonuses as we hit sales milestones. When the stores win, you win.
- I want a partner in this, not a task-taker. If you have opinions on what we should launch, I want to hear them.

Interview process

One call, 1 to 2 hours. We'll go through your experience, your workflow, your design work, how you research products, and how you use AI tools. No multi-round runaround.

How to apply

Reply with:
1. Your portfolio, plus links to any stores you've worked on
2. One trend you'd chase for Halloween or Thanksgiving this year, and the product you'd make for it
3. Which tools you use for product research and design
4. How you use AI in your workflow
5. Your available hours in EST, and whether you prefer US day or US night
6. The word PUMPKIN at the top of your reply so I know you read this

Applications without a portfolio and not answering the questions will be skipped.
