- Track merchant and warehouse performance post-launch and identify when an account manager can take over the account.
- Act as the point person for the warehouse and merchant, build confidence in all parties, prioritize and manage stressful situations, make yourself available and lead by example.
- Show extreme professionalism, communicate early and often with everyone involved, be a face for Flowspace in front of merchants and warehouses, raise concerns before issues happen.
