  Social Media Wizard - Spreadshirt AG

  Having been freelancing for a few years I took a year out and decided to live and work in Leipzig, Germany for Spreadshirt. This was an exciting challenge not only on a personal level but also on a professional level. Working in a fast paced environment with a new language was tricky but was great fun. I was tasked with promoting their custom apparel to consumers. After a discussion with some of the team I was able to offer a social way of rebranding the company through a contest. http://olp.spreadshirt.net
