3 reasons why this class is special
❶ Blooming Tail's only
How to develop sentimental goods design
The reason why a new brand called Blooming Tail was able to survive out of 216,000 posts with the #디자인문구 hashtag was “The uniqueness of Blooming Tail,” which conceived seasonal images using emotional graphics. In the class, you'll learn how to use a public domain where there are no copyright issues, or develop a product design using only a single image or typography.

Disclosure of mockup production and ordering process
The ideation process and storytelling process of Bloomingtail are captured in detail. I will mock-up the product on the monitor and tell you in advance how to actually make it, how to communicate with the manufacturer and place an order, how to set the unit price of the item, and all the trial and error you may experience in the process. I'll shorten the preparation process for starting a business so that my classmates don't go through the trial and error I went through.

❸ 0 to 50,000 followers in 1 year!
The secret to becoming a popular social media brand
After 1 year of business, Bloomingtail Studio reached 50,000 followers and is collaborating with various brands such as webtoons, musicals, and beauty brands. “Branding using social media” was the secret to achieving high sales in such a short period of time. The growth of social media followers (0 > 50,000) also led to rapid growth in sales.
We will reveal the secret to running a social media account that stands out from many stationery brands. I'll tell you in detail how to use “RT events, hashtags, and insights”, mainly on Twitter and Instagram. Your brand can also become a goods brand loved by idols by using only social media without spending a separate advertising fee!

Hello everyone!
I am Bloomingtale 🌿
For the past 8 years, I have been doing a variety of work such as conducting research on previous products, designing concept cars, organizing exhibitions, etc., as I was working as an in-house designer for big corporations such as LG Electronics, SM Entertainment, Hyundai Movis etc. I founded the stationary brand company 'Bloomingtale Studio' in 2020.
From In-House Designer of Major Corporations to a Stationary Brand CEO with Monthly Revenue of 150 Million Dollars!

The projects are quite interesting aren't they? I have been working on many projects within the big boundary of advanced planning. I have participated in GUI projects for cars, organized exhibitions for artists, and conducted GUI studies a varirty of objects such as robots and even flying air purifiers. I have learned a great deal during the 8 years as a in-house designer, but I always had the passion for creating 'my own brand'. With this passion, I ended up creating my own brand.
As I was creating my own brand, I had received numerous questions. Thus, I created a class on my startup story, hoping to help designers out there who are still deciding whether to find a job or to start my own business.
A Word for Those Who Want to Start Their Own Business!

NEVER EVER! think of starting big by quitting your job and purchasing all the expensive equipment. If possible, I recommend starting slow as a hobby and juggling it with your main job. There are many people who give up in the beginning because their followers are not increasing, thinking that they can't make it. However, if you put yourselves in the consumer's shoes, it is also very unlikely for you to follow accounts that have less than 1,000 followers or less than ten posts. In the same context, there will also not be that many influx of followers. For those who continue to manage your brand and post more than 200 posts, I promise you that you WILL see positive results. Promise me not to give up!
