Shipping Virtual Assistants: Ecommerce and Business Shipping Support

Shipping operations for ecommerce and wholesale businesses involve order processing, label generation, carrier selection, tracking management, and returns processing. A shipping VA manages these daily operations, ensuring orders ship on time and customers stay informed.

Key Data: Ecommerce businesses with dedicated shipping support achieve 98%+ on-time shipping rates compared to 89% for those handling shipping ad-hoc (ShipBob 2025). On-time shipping is the #1 factor in customer satisfaction for ecommerce — each 1% improvement in on-time rates correlates with 3% improvement in repeat purchase rates.

Key Areas

• Order processing — reviewing orders, verifying addresses, and preparing shipments
• Label generation — creating shipping labels across carriers (UPS, FedEx, USPS, DHL)
• Carrier selection — choosing optimal carriers based on cost, speed, and destination
• Tracking management — monitoring shipments, handling exceptions, and proactively updating customers
