The company operates through platforms such as TikTok Live and Whatnot, utilizing livestream commerce to drive sales, audience growth, and customer engagement.
The business currently operates out of an in-house streaming studio and a 3,000-square-foot warehouse located in Northwest Arkansas.

This includes initiatives such as the “Live Selling Academy,” which serves as both a content platform and educational upsell community.
