The E-commerce & Retail Staffing Problem
Customer service volume — ticket and chat volume grows with sales but margins don't
Marketplace management — Amazon, Shopify, and eBay operations require dedicated staff
Product listing work — creating and optimizing listings is time-consuming and repetitive
Order management — processing, tracking, and resolving order issues takes significant time
Seasonal scaling — peak periods require headcount that isn't justified year-round
