E-Commerce · Growth & Ops Systems

Stop running 12 dashboards. Run the brand on a connected system.

Shopify, Klaviyo, the 3PL, the helpdesk, the ad platforms, the returns portal — your team is paying tabs taxes every day. We design a connected operations system that ties orders, inventory, customer experience and growth data into one place — so you ship faster, churn less and grow with fewer humans in the loop.

The problem

Sound familiar?

Where DTC brands lose hours, margin and customers.

01

Inventory truth is 3 places at once

Shopify says one number, the 3PL says another, the wholesale platform says a third. Oversells and stockouts both hurt.

02

CX is drowning in copy-paste

Helpdesk agents bounce between Shopify, the 3PL portal and the returns tool to answer 'where is my order?' — for the 100th time today.

03

Returns and refunds leak margin

RMAs are manually processed, restocking is uncertain, and refund timing is unpredictable for the customer.

04

Marketing spend isn't tied to LTV

Ad platforms optimize on attributed last-click revenue. You can't see which campaigns build customers vs. burn cash.

05

Wholesale orders break the system

B2B orders land in email, get re-keyed into Shopify, and screw up the D2C inventory flow.

06

Promo and bundle logic is fragile

Every campaign requires a workaround in a different tool, and Black Friday becomes a fire drill across 5 platforms.

What you get

Built for modern e-commerce

Sits on Shopify, BigCommerce, Klaviyo, Gorgias, ShipBob, ShipHero — connects orders, inventory, CX and growth.

Orders

Order & inventory single source of truth

Real-time inventory across D2C, wholesale, retail and 3PL. Orders flow with the right rules — preorders, splits, holds — and CX always sees the truth.

Multi-channel syncPreorders + dropsSplit shipmentsOversell guards
CX

1-screen helpdesk

Agents see order, shipment, returns, payment and history in one screen — instead of switching tabs.

Gorgias / ZendeskMacros + AI draft
Returns

Self-serve RMA

Customers initiate returns, choose store credit, and refunds clear automatically once items pass QC at the 3PL.

Growth

LTV-aware growth dashboards

Cohort LTV, channel ROAS, repeat rate, AOV by segment and inventory-aware ad pacing — so growth and ops finally use the same numbers.

How we build it

Built for peak season.

No Black Friday surprises. We rehearse before we ship.

1

Audit the stack

We map every tool you use, every place data lives, every manual handoff your team does daily.

2

Wire the spine

Inventory, orders, CX and growth data tied into one operations layer.

3

Dry-run peak

Simulate peak-season load and edge cases before customers hit it.

4

Roll out & monitor

Phased rollout with monitoring. We're on standby for the first peak event.

Social proof

Trusted by DTC brand teams

"Inventory used to be wrong in three places. CX was apologizing every day. After GTS wired the system, oversells dropped to zero and CX volume fell 40% in the first 60 days."

AB

Ashley Brooks

COO, Northcoast Apparel

"We were spending on ads blind. Now we pace spend against live inventory and cohort LTV — our blended ROAS jumped 1.6× without changing creative."

RP

Ravi Pillai

Founder, Hearth & Hide

"Black Friday used to be a fire drill across five tools. This year we shipped 4× volume with the same team and went home on time."

Director of Ops, Bay Goods Co.

FAQ

Got questions?

Do you replace Shopify?
No. We sit on top of Shopify (or BigCommerce / WooCommerce) and integrate with your 3PL, helpdesk, ESP and ad platforms. Shopify keeps doing what it's great at — we fix the seams between everything else.
Can you integrate our 3PL?
Yes — ShipBob, ShipHero, Deliverr, ShipMonk and most warehouse APIs. For 3PLs without APIs we build EDI/SFTP integrations and reconcile inventory automatically.
What about B2B / wholesale orders?
We build dedicated B2B order flows with tiered pricing, NET terms, PO references and approval workflows — separate inventory pools or shared, your choice.
Can you handle subscriptions / replenishment?
Yes. We integrate with Recharge, Skio, Loop Returns and similar — or build custom subscription logic with churn-prevention flows.
How long to go live?
Most DTC rollouts are 6–12 weeks: 2 weeks discovery, 4–8 weeks build, 2 weeks dry-run and pilot. Brands with complex 3PL or wholesale flows skew longer.
What does it cost?
DTC operations builds typically range $15K–$60K depending on integrations, channels and complexity. We scope after the operational assessment.
