How It Works

From the first call to live operations in 14 days.

No long onboarding, no consultant-speak, no waiting six weeks to see results. Our process is built to take a store from chaotic to fully managed within two weeks, with documented systems your team can audit at any time.

Four steps. Two weeks.

Every engagement follows the same structured flow, refined across the stores we run.

The tools, SOPs and quality checks behind each step are written out in how we actually work.

Day 0 · 30 minutes

The First Call

We start with a focused 30-minute call to understand your store, your current operational pain, and what is and is not working today. No sales scripts, no pre-baked deck. We listen, ask sharp questions, and tell you what we would take off you first.

  • Review your current Shopify setup, tools, and team
  • Identify the three operational gaps costing you the most time
  • Align on the engagement format that fits your stage
  • Send a written proposal with scope and pricing within 24 hours

Days 1 to 5 · Operations Audit

Audit and Handover

Once you say go, our team spends the first week mapping every operational workflow in your store. Order flows, supplier chains, inventory logic, support processes, app stack, and team responsibilities. We identify every manual task, every bottleneck, and every gap.

  • Full Shopify admin audit, including theme, apps, and integrations
  • Documented Standard Operating Procedures for every recurring task
  • Tarly portal setup with your team and ours connected
  • Shared Slack channel or email thread for direct access
03
Days 6 to 14 · System Build

System Build and Go Live

We assign your specialists, integrate our tooling with your store, and run a one-week shadow phase where we operate alongside your existing team or solo founder. By day 14, the operational baton is handed over and we are fully running the work scoped in the proposal.

  • Specialists matched to your category and product complexity
  • One-week shadow phase to learn your tone, brand, and exceptions
  • All access reviewed, scoped, and locked to least privilege
  • Day 14 go live with full operational ownership

Month 1 onward · Ongoing Operations

Run, Report, Refine

After day 14 we keep showing up. Weekly check-ins, monthly performance reviews, quarterly strategy sessions. You see every hour we work through Tarly, every task we complete in our shared workspace, and every metric we move on the monthly report.

  • Weekly Slack or email check-in with your dedicated specialist
  • Monthly performance report with operational and growth metrics
  • Quarterly strategy session to plan the next phase
  • Scope adjusts as your store grows, without a new contract

Common questions.

What if I have an existing team or VA?
We work alongside your existing team. The audit phase identifies what your team owns and what gaps we fill. Most engagements end up as a hybrid where we run the operational backbone and your in-house team focuses on strategy, brand, and customer relationships.
How do I know what you are actually working on?
Through Tarly, our in-house team management portal. Every hour worked, every task completed, every screenshot during work sessions is visible to you in real time. You see exactly what we are doing, when, and on what.
What stores do you usually work with?
DTC Shopify and Shopify Plus brands with a small in-house team or a solo founder. We have served fashion, beauty, jewelry, home goods, fitness, and sports nutrition brands across the US, UK, Australia, Germany, and Ireland.
Do you offer one-off projects or only retainers?
Both. New store launches, redesigns, migrations, and audits are fixed-scope projects. Day-to-day operations are monthly retainers. We also offer hourly engagements for smaller stores or one-off advisory work.
What happens if it is not working?
All retainers are month to month. You can cancel with two weeks’ notice, without penalty.
Where are your specialists based?
Our core team is based in Islamabad, Pakistan. We work across US, UK, and APAC time zones with overlapping coverage windows for live communication during your business hours.
