What Inventory Controllers Say About Sagedoer
Real feedback from warehouse operators, multi-channel ecommerce brands, and wholesale distributors.
"We run three regional 3PLs and were constantly dealing with ghost inventory and overselling on Amazon. Our Sagedoer VA executes daily cycle count variance logs and syncs inventory buffers across Cin7 and Shopify every single morning. Our inventory accuracy jumped from 91% to 99.4% in 60 days."
"The free dedicated Project Manager is what separates Sagedoer from every freelancer board out there. Before our VA pushes stock adjustments or issues supplier POs for raw materials in Katana MRP, our PM checks the numbers against past run-rates. It completely frees me from micro-managing."
"Matching inbound bills of lading and container packing lists against our NetSuite purchase orders used to take 25 hours a week of our lead accountant's time. Sagedoer’s full-time assistant handled the entire 3-way match, caught $14,000 in short-shipped goods, and processed vendor credits smoothly."
"During Q4, our stock turns triple and returns pile up fast. Our Sagedoer VA categorized RMAs into restock, repackage, and scrap bins in ShipHero daily, ensuring returned items were immediately available for resale. The $6/hour rate saved us at least $4,500 every single month."
