I'd like to start marketing for a friend's decal business, any advice?

Hi! So my best friend has a business selling decals. He does single-color vinyl decals and also has this huge, $10,000 printer that can print out on any kind of material, but he still mostly does vinyl and canvas. I'm TOTALLY new to marketing, like legitimately have no idea about marketing, but I'm a pretty quick learner and I think I could do a good job at it if I had some resources. Anyone have any ideas? His business is called Old 17 decals, he uses instagram, facebook, etsy, and ebay for most of his sales. He doesn't have a website apart from those. His business has grown a whole lot, but now he can't do a whole lot of advertising, because almost ALL of his time is spent actually creating, printing, cutting, packaging, and shipping all these decals, and I think that if I was able to do a good job of marketing, that it could be profitable for the both of us. So yeah, where do I start? I'd greatly appreciate any advice you guys could give me!

Also, first time poster here; sorry if this is breaking any rules. It doesn't seem to be, based on the rules section, but yeah.

If you want to check out his stuff to give me a better idea on how to market, here are some links:
