Customer service desk · E-commerce & DTC
Resolve tier-1 contacts without escalating.
A parcel marked delivered never arrived. The agent pulls the order, reads the carrier scans, and weighs reship against refund — across every channel at once.
The reality
Tier-1 support is a tracing problem.
Most contacts are the same handful of shapes: where is my order, it says delivered but it's not here, wrong item, cancel before it ships. Each one means pulling the order, reading the carrier scan history, and taking an action — but they arrive across every channel at once and pile into the queue.
The operator owns tier-1 end to end: it pulls the order, traces the carrier scan history, files a missing-mail search when the scan record warrants it, and resolves with a reship or refund on policy — escalating to a human only the genuinely ambiguous cases.
