Without You, We'd Just Be Collectors of Our Own Stuff

Business equals selling stuff.

That's the basic model.

The more complex awesome model is creating stuff that people identify with and then you figuring out how to get it to them.

We need people like you: creative, dynamic problem solvers who see it as more than business.

Who see it as giving people the tools of self-expression and individuality.
