Assess the right fit
Our catalogue candidates are reviewed and interviewed by our team.
Discuss experience with Shopify or your platform, your inventory and shipping tools, your product range and your order volume. Ask the candidate to explain how they handle a stock discrepancy, an order with an address problem and a return outside policy.
Agree any practical exercise with our team, using sample store data. Give only the access the role needs; for example, limit refund, payment and customer data permissions to what the work requires.

Before you hire.
What the monthly price includesThe starting price is a guide for a full-time hire in the Philippines. Your quote confirms the total for your chosen person, agreed hours and service arrangements.
- Experience and scope: specialist skills, seniority and the responsibilities you need affect the price.
- Hours and coverage: agree the working week, time-zone overlap and any evening or weekend needs.
- What is included: ask for the breakdown of employment costs, our service, equipment and any one-off charges, with currency and applicable taxes stated.
We confirm these details before you commit. The starting price is not a fixed quote for every candidate.
Timing depends on the brief, candidate availability, interviews and any notice period. We will agree the next update and a target start date with you once those details are clear. If the right person is not currently available, we can recruit to your brief.
- Set the controls: agree store permissions, refund and purchase order approvals and your returns policy.
- Hand over the daily routine: work through orders, stock checks and returns together using your real process.
- Review the first cycle: check stock accuracy, purchase orders and returns, then agree the reporting cadence.
You can discuss a role without committing to a hire. Before proceeding, review your written quote and agreement for payment timing, currency and taxes, notice requirements, the support included and what happens if the hire is not the right fit.
We will confirm replacement arrangements and any conditions in your agreement before you proceed.
