Sean Podvent – CEO of picsilk

The idea behind picsilk is incredibly enticing to people who really strive to be unique in their clothing. picsilk is essentially a youtube for t-shirts with an obvious eCommerce element. Go to there site, and it will become immediately apparent that you have just walked into to a virtual clothing store where the merchandise is designed by everyone and anyone! Users can submit image files in lough of videos to be used as designs for t-shirts, which, can then be searchable and purchased on the site through hashtags. The site hosts competitions to encourage user activity and build a sense of community. Most of all, the designs for these shirts are of equal or better quality than something you would normally purchase. We are excited to welcome the company’s owner and CEO, Sean Podvent to relive the company’s beginnings and tell us how they are expanding today.
