Operations VA for E-commerce

For brands, the Ops VA documents fulfillment SOPs, monitors Zapier integrations across Shopify/3PL/ERP, and runs vendor and SKU governance so launches don't surface broken processes.

Why a Operations VA fits E-commerce

Every Operations VA we place in e-commerce works against PCI-aware order handling and platform policy compliance. We solve the day-to-day pain DTC and marketplace brands feel most: promo-cycle volume spikes that break SLAs. They onboard onto your e-commerce stack (typically Shopify, Amazon Seller Central, Gorgias) inside the first week, with your SOPs as the source of truth.

What ships in the first 30 days

In the first 30 days, your Operations VA for E-commerce ships the sop library updated (weekly) and the automation health check (weekly), plus the recurring work that defines the role: document sops for every recurring process with screenshots and loom walkthroughs, and build and maintain zapier or make automations across your tool stack. Your account manager runs a weekly review against the role's SOP and the e-commerce-specific checklist so quality is measured, not assumed.
