Welcome to Listing Studios!
Hello there! I'm Tina, the CEO of Listing Studios.
I am based in Seattle, but have team members in Utah, Chicago and Philippines.
What We Do
We blend our e-commerce expertise, deep knowledge of the Amazon space, data-driven strategies, and passion for creativity to take a balanced approach.
By using data to make informed decisions and creativity to make your brand shine, we ensure your business stands out.
Whether we’re analyzing customer behavior, researching the right keywords, or crafting eye-catching visuals, our focus is always on helping your business grow and succeed online.
My Journey
Before I jumped into entrepreneurship, I spent years as a Product Manager in the financial sector, working for companies like Dell Financial Services and PayPal. That’s where I really geeked out on data!
I managed complex projects and products, but one night at 2 am—after a late conference call with my team in India—I found myself in tears. It hit me that something needed to change. I realized it was time to explore a different path.
In 2013, I took a leap of faith and ventured into franchise ownership in Texas, which marked the real start of my entrepreneurial journey. I purchased an existing franchise and built a second one from the ground up—ever heard of Painting With a Twist? I owned two locations in McKinney and Plano, Texas.
Along the way, I ventured into real estate, investing in fix-and-flip projects and land in Tulum, Mexico. Eventually, I reinvested in a condo built on that land, which I now rent out on Airbnb—and try to make my second home whenever I get the chance.
In 2017, I launched a line of travel-inspired apparel and accessories on Shopify, which quickly became my area of expertise. By 2019, I became immersed in the Amazon space, learning a ton by working alongside industry experts and sellers.
Today, I own Listing Studios—a perfect blend of e-commerce, creativity, and the freedom to work from anywhere in the world.
Passion for Travel
When I’m not leading Listing Studios, I’m exploring the world—42 countries and counting.
For me, travel is more than just an adventure; it’s my therapy. It gives me the chance to see life from different perspectives and reflect on my own experiences in contrast to the lives of others around the globe.
Travel isn’t just about seeing new places—it’s a transformative journey that constantly reshapes how I think, live, and approach business. Every trip brings fresh ideas, cultural insights, and creative inspiration that I pour back into the work we do at Listing Studios.
Looking Ahead
We believe in building real connections with our clients.
We combine creative expertise with data-driven strategies to help your brand succeed, but what truly sets us apart is the care and attention we give to each partnership.
We’re a small agency by choice because we believe in providing a more personal touch. We want you to feel supported every step of the way.
We know what it's like to be a smaller brand, which is why we believe in fair, transparent pricing. You won’t find inflated costs or hidden fees here—just honest rates that reflect the true value we bring to your business, because we understand every dollar counts.
With years of experience in e-commerce, Amazon, and Shopify, we’re dedicated to helping your brand grow and succeed. To us, you’re not just a client—you’re a partner, and we’re excited to be part of your journey.
In 2016, I finally went back to my homeland of Laos—the first time since we fled in 1979.
My uncle took us to the exact spot where we once waited for the signal to cross the Mekong River into Thailand. Standing there at the edge of the border, I tried to imagine what that night was like for my family. I was only three years old then, so I don't have any memories of our escape. But being there filled me with such a deep sense of connection. It was surreal to stand where one decision had forever changed our lives.
My grandma eventually made it to the U.S. She spent years growing herbs and veggies, selling them in small Asian markets. With the money she saved, she built a family home back in our village, Ban Mak Nao. Standing in that home, I couldn't help but notice the stark difference between those who risked everything to leave and those who stayed behind.
We worked hard in the U.S., sending money back to support our loved ones. But what really struck me were the kids—they lacked educational opportunities we often take for granted.
It pulled at my heartstrings, and right then and there, I vowed to help them learn English and develop skills that could open doors to jobs in the city or even another country.
This is my why.
Sometimes, we get caught up in the daily grind and lose sight of our sense of purpose—our why. I have to remind myself to stay intentional in everything I do so I don’t drift too far from my path. My ultimate goal is to spend several months each year working in Laos, teaching English and providing training to the children in the village.
