The client makes custom furniture that fits any space. They pride themselves in using solid wood for their tables and desks, benches, and shelves. Their clients come to them for well-crafted, ready-to-use furniture.  

Who was hired and what was their role?

With the rise of work-from-home setups, demand for their furniture increased, and they needed an expert to manage logistics and shipping operations. Somewhere helped them hire a remote operations manager, selecting Monale as the perfect fit for the role.

  • Responding to common product inquiries, such as custom size pricing, turnaround time, and tracking information
