web site 2.0

Here's the new site layout. It looks pretty amazing..currently I am mapping out how I want the entire backend of the site will be run....not fun
quite boring and complicated but i will update on what is being done once I finish that. You can click on the image for a larger view. The site is designed by Lauren Castady.

I've also gatherd a few merch designs for us to use in the store as 'Web exclusives' to help generate some revenue.
They can be found here.

So what exactly is my job with the Ben Kweller team? Well I do a little bit of everything. Basically I find web designers/graphic designers and communicate to them our vision, our ideas, and what we want from our products and make sure they produce something that our fans will purchase. I make tweaks when necessary before presenting them to Ben's manager and to Ben. On tour, I sell this merchandise, which I also help selecting. I make sure all the designers are compensated and all that good stuff. I also decide how much of what product we should order and how many of each size we should order. I also decide how the items should be priced that will optimize our profits.

Right now I am the Street Team coordinator, which I've posted about below..more in depth at a later time. We are currently in the process of building a web site and my job is to oversee the design as well as to ensure it is functional and does not go over my budget.
