De-escalate. Resolve. Retain.

A bad support experience costs you a lifetime customer. Our VAs execute a meticulous, empathetic protocol to protect your margins and salvage every customer relationship.

WISMO & Tracking Triage

Handling the dreaded "Where is my order?" tickets. We track down delayed packages, liaise with 3PLs/Couriers, and keep anxious customers updated proactively.

Returns & Exchanges

Processing RMAs smoothly via Loop or Returnly. Issuing store credit to save the sale, or executing partial/full refunds directly inside Shopify or Stripe.

Live Chat & Social DMs

Providing real-time answers to pre-sales questions (sizing, shipping policies) via Gorgias Live Chat or Instagram/Facebook DMs to push hesitant buyers to checkout.

Review Management

Monitoring Trustpilot, Yotpo, and Google. We thank 5-star reviewers and immediately attempt to resolve and flip 1-star reviews through personalized outreach.

Order Editing & Fraud

Fixing incorrect shipping addresses before fulfillment, canceling accidental duplicates, and flagging high-risk fraudulent orders for manual review.

Abandoned Cart Recovery

Sending personalized, manual follow-up emails to high-value abandoned carts, offering targeted discount codes or answering specific objections to close the sale.

Frequently Asked Questions

Addressing common queries regarding our Managed Customer Service VA.

Do I have to give the VA full admin access to Shopify/Stripe?
No. Security is our top priority. You should only grant restricted, role-based access. In Shopify, you can limit their permissions to only view orders, issue refunds up to a certain dollar amount, or only process exchanges. Your dedicated PM will guide you on setting up these restricted roles securely.
How do they know how to respond to an angry customer in our brand voice?
During onboarding (Phase 2), we build a "Macro Library" and an SOP document with you. The VA uses your pre-approved templates for 90% of interactions. For escalations, they are trained in empathy and de-escalation techniques, and the Project Manager routinely audits their outbound replies to ensure they match your brand's tone.
Why hire through Sagedoer instead of a freelance platform?
Handling your customers and issuing refunds requires extreme reliability. Freelance platforms charge up to 40% in hidden fees and leave you to manage the chaos if the freelancer logs off. Sagedoer is a fully managed service at a flat rate ($6-$7/hr). You get a free dedicated Project Manager who performs QA checks on the ticket replies and monitors response times.
Can they cover weekends or overnight shifts?
Yes. Because we operate globally, we can staff VAs across various time zones to provide extended or 24/7 coverage for your store, ensuring international customers or late-night shoppers receive prompt replies, lowering your overall first-response time.
