Seth Carstens’s Summary
I am currently a business owner in the market of Computer Information Systems and Website Development. I have also completed my Bachelors in CIS at ASU the fall semester of 2006. I have a passion to be the best regardless of the event. I think this makes me a good fit for the position I am in as it will help my teams produce the best work and results. I also have good communication skills and leadership abilities. I was able to show this and enhance my skills through many communications courses at ASU. I have worked as a business owner with 7 years of experience in the IT industry. I know what it takes to make a business successful and how important it is to meet customer deadlines with successful results. You can also rest assured that I am up to date on all the newest technologies as I frequently read magazines and other correspondence about the industry.
Recently we finished version 1.0 of our software called SM GCRM (Global Customer Relationship Management) and it was released to be sold along with 4 modules to assist in industry specific prospect and customer management.
SM Online Shopping Version 1.0 was released as a stand alone product. This one of a kind shopping cart is extremely simple, does not rely on a database to function, and features the use of both "Pay By Check" and "Google Checkout" fucntions.
We also began to operate under SM Printing where we provide marketing products for businesses including both the design and printing of business cards, brochures, counter matts, logo pens, magnets, mousepads and more. SM Printing was founded solely to help businesses establish a professional and uniform design that creates a visual link between the printed marketing and website marketing a business pushes out to their prospects and customers.
