@keikoduncan
Customer-focused business owner combining POS operations, digital marketing, and tailored product experiences for online growth.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Canada-based business owner running an Etsy storefront that blends day-to-day operations with strong customer service. I manage daily operations for an online storefront producing personalized digital and physical products—processing transactions through Point of Sale (POS), answering inquiries, and recommending tailored options that keep customers confident and coming back.
I also bring hands-on experience from gallery roles and university events, where I delivered precise opening/closing procedures, visual merchandising, and visitor support while tracking traffic and common questions. Since 2024, I’ve supported high-volume environments—working closely with teams and volunteers, troubleshooting technology-related issues quickly, and contributing to measurable engagement growth (40+ visitors over two months; 8,000+ attendees at major university events).
