Inaugural Post

Hello Everyone!

I'm Laura, your host, and Supreme Overlord of PinUpGirlClothing.com.

Supreme Overlord sounds like an awesome job, but it mostly involves the following:


Editing, photoshopping, an resizing all of the photos that go on the website
Sitting in front of a computer uploading new items until my eyes start bleeding
Going to trade shows and buying tons of rockin' stuff for the website (this part is fun)
Being the foot model for our Shoes.

I also manage our eBay auctions and our MySpace Page.

When I'm not doing all of that stuff, I'm scheduling photo shoots, designing new stuff for our Clothing Line, and dealing with assorted day to day stuff.

When I'm not working, I spend time with my daughter, Milena, and my husband, John. Sometimes we take vacations. Vacations rock.

When we first started, back in 1999, I did, well, everything. I answered the phones, responded to the emails, and packed the orders. I did all of that until around 2002, and then I hired employees to help me out. That was a good thing, because I was getting a bit burned out.

We have the best employees anyone could ask for.

Tiffany, my assistant, yells at the contractors for me when they're late (which is all the time), and reorders all of our merchandise when we run out, which is also, all the time. She helps me with the wholesale end of the business as well.

Ariel and Mirna kick righteous ass in Customer Service: Answering phones and emails, processing the day's orders, editing the website to reflect inventory changes, and processing returns and exchanges.

Kevin, Tony and Valeria spend their days pulling stock and packing orders, as well as restocking new and reordered merchandise, and keeping track of our inventory.

Chelsea and Sandra work the Padasena store.

I hope to have some or all of our employees guest blog from time to time, so stay tuned!
