I could turn into a millionaire from this thing, and I was like, Hell yeah!
Charlotte, NC (PRWEB) September 15, 2014
Ecomdash announced the winner of Occupy eStreet, an annual contest for small business owners to win software and services from multiple ecommerce software providers. Ecommerce website platform Shopify, social sales manager AddShoppers and postage solutions provider Endicia partnered with ecommerce newcomer ecomdash to provide six months of free software. Ecomdash provides multi-channel inventory, order, and shipping management software. Public voting narrowed the field, then partner teams nearly unanimously selected Jon Smejkal of Pier28 Inc., as the winner.
Contestants were required to submit a future business goal with an accompanying photo. Smejkal submitted a photoshopped image of his dashboard camera company Pier28 in its own vendor booth at the CES International Consumer Electronics Show in 2015. Currently selling on multiple marketplaces and websites, Smejkal acutely understands how technology can help him quickly scale operations. Smejkal anticipates the “dashcam” industry to explode in the US as it has in other parts of the world. Remember the numerous YouTube videos of a Meteor that hit Russia in early 2013? Those memorable images were caught on vehicle dashboard cameras. He refers to the industry as an extension of our digital living, providing elements of both fun and safety.
Over the next six months Smejkal will document and share his experience starting a new ecommerce company and growing it into a successful business. His excitement for the dashcam trend and creating his own American Dream is infectious. In Smejkal's own words, “I could turn into a millionaire from this thing, and I was like, Hell yeah!” His company is fully backed by investors who expect him to do just that.
