Most people define themselves by job titles. I don’t — because I’ve worked across sales, customer support, and small team leadership, and the real work was always the same: keep people moving forward without things breaking in between. I’ve worked in sales environments where I wasn’t just passing messages — I was handling conversations end-to-end. Understanding the customer, dealing with hesitation, following up properly, and closing without sounding pushy. A lot of that came down to timing, tone, and knowing how to keep things simple. On the operations side, I’ve worked with e-commerce workflows on Shopify where the job was the opposite: slow things down, fix errors, clean up communication, and make sure customers don’t feel ignored when something goes wrong — tracking issues, refunds, delivery delays, and order confusion. I’m currently rebuilding my Upwork profile and looking for long-term roles where I can take real ownership of customer communication, sales support, and operations — not just tasks, but outcomes. Let’s connect and make your business operations run like clockwork while keeping your customers happy and engaged.

What if your graphic designs could outstand your competitors? Imagine how your graphics could 10X your Sales completely. Graphics is like the grandma of all business. Now I know it sounds stupid, but it is the mother of all mothers. Are you getting me? A GOOD GRAPHIC IS WORTH A THOUSAND THAN WORDS Graphic design can influence your customers’ minds through his graphics ability, as Picasso had done in the past. What’s the one thing you would avoid in your graphics? 1: Clutter of colors 2: Not creating a versatile Design 3: Low - Quality artwork 4: Ignoring current trends Did you notice I mentioned one thing above but stated 4 things below...Right. Why? Because each of the problems I shared comes at the top and will bounce back your customers…if you’re running a business. If you need more impressions on your design, message me. If you are struggling to gain customers' attention, I can probably help by creating appealing designs. Who am I? My name is Sabeen Umair. My clients call me Picasso because my graphics are a complete story in themselves and urge people to have a look at the product by clicking it. If any of that sounds like what you need, message me. MY PROMISE TO YOU! I do not promise to get you sales as it also involves other elements, but Being a graphic designer, I can assure you that a tremendous amount of traffic in your store is driven by my artwork. And indeed it does contribute to the number of sales as well. I don't work hard, but I work smart, and that is what I want to highlight in your business designs so the customers could get attracted to it. If that's what you consider important, as I do, then message me. One thing I can promise you, even in this market, is that I never ask my clients to judge me on my wins. I asked them to judge me on my losses because I have so few. Picasso of graphic design, Sabeen
