• Respond to customer enquiries and complaints, escalating where appropriate

• Monitor and respond to customer reviews across the review platforms in use, escalating any that need the founder to see them
  

Returnshandling

• Checking items missing in transit
  
• Customers requiring changes to a return submission
  
• Cross checking with the fulfillment center system for items returned damaged

• Improve and extend macros, help center content and AI instructions so that routine questions are answered accurately first time
