Jan 2012 - Dec 2018
Launched and scaled the company from ground up into multimillion-dollar annual revenue with YOY growth. Sourced and sold in-demand tickets for concerts, events, and athletics at low cost / high demand using third-party reseller platforms. Negotiated bulk wholesale pricing to maximize gross margin and ROI. Winning in business is much more than being the best. As such, we place our customers at the center of our business by building lasting relationships with the sports teams members to purchase bulk tickets at a wholesale price. By ensuring that our sales is skyrocketing, I managed game day sales and sold out before the event started. Show less
