E-commerce and retail

We support retailers and e-commerce brands with omnichannel customer experience and operations that flex through peak season, from order management to returns and marketplace support.

The sector context

E-commerce and retail live and die by the customer experience. Customers judge a brand on how fast they get help, whether their order arrives correctly, and how returns and problems are handled, and they share the experience either way.

The defining challenge is volume that will not sit still. Peak season, promotions and launches can multiply support, order and returns traffic several times over in a matter of weeks, and in-house teams either over-hire for the peak or fall behind during it. US returns alone run into the hundreds of billions of dollars a year.

Corpshore US supports retailers and e-commerce brands with omnichannel customer experience and operations that flex through peak season: order management, returns, marketplace support and customer service across voice, chat, email and social, with bilingual English and Spanish as standard.

We run as an extension of your CX and operations teams, inside your commerce and helpdesk platforms, and we scale the team with the season so cost tracks demand instead of fixed headcount.

Illustrative

Peak-season CX and returns

The challenge
A direct-to-consumer brand saw support and returns volume multiply over the holidays and could not keep response times down without over-hiring all year.
Our approach
A dedicated bilingual team took omnichannel support and returns processing in the client's helpdesk, with capacity ramped for peak and scaled back afterward.
The outcome
Response times held through peak, returns cleared without backlog, and a cost base that tracked the season.
Illustrative

Marketplace and order operations

The challenge
A growing retailer needed marketplace support and order operations across several channels without building a large in-house team.
Our approach
A team handled order processing, tracking, and marketplace and seller support across the client's channels and platforms.
The outcome
Consistent order operations across channels and a single, reportable view of service.

Frequently asked questions

  • Yes. We plan capacity for peaks such as Black Friday and the holidays, ramp the team for the surge, then scale back afterward so cost tracks demand.
