Epic Virtual Assistant Needed for research and ad-hoc projects
Pat was a pleasure to work with! He was able to turn in all work in a timely manner and with little to no hiccups. He took direction very well and also made suggestions to the proposed work, some of which were implemented. He would be a great asset to anyone who works with him.
About PATRICK
Shopify & eCommerce CX Manager | Zendesk, Gorgias & AI Automation
Metro Manila, Philippines - 6:30 pm local time
I fix all of that. Then I automate it so it doesn't break again.
I'm Patrick — a Shopify & eCommerce Customer Service Manager and AI-Powered Operations Specialist with 26 years in customer service and 11 years leading Shopify and DTC support teams. I've run everything from 2-person stores to high-volume brands handling 1,500+ tickets a day with teams of up to 30 agents. I've cut first response times from 24 hours to 2, and built support departments from zero to fully independent.
What makes me different from most CS managers: I don't just manage your support — I build the system that runs it. For every support pain point, I find an AI solution. I've built internal support portals in Lovable, automated Zendesk and Gorgias workflows, created full SOP libraries with Claude and ChatGPT, and built real-time reporting dashboards for leadership.
‣ WHAT I DO
• Shopify & eCommerce Customer Support — email, live chat, and phone that retains customers, not just closes tickets
• Zendesk & Gorgias Setup — macros, triggers, automations, and full workflow builds from scratch
• Order & Dispute Management — chargebacks, Shopify refunds, Stripe disputes, returns, WISMO, and carrier escalations
• AI-Powered SOP Development — knowledge bases your team actually follows, built with Claude and ChatGPT
• Help Desk Optimization — ticket triage, queue management, and cleaning up neglected helpdesk setups
• Team Building & Training — hire, onboard, train, and manage remote support agents with clear KPIs
• Reporting & Dashboards — response times, CSAT, refund trends, and productivity, reported to leadership weekly
‣ REAL RESULTS
• Cut response time from 24 hours to 2 hours
• Brought first resolution time down to 4 hours
• Managed 30 agents handling 1,500 tickets a day
• Resolved high-volume Shopify and Stripe chargeback cases
• Built support teams from zero to fully independent operation
‣ TOOLS & PLATFORMS
Helpdesk: Zendesk, Gorgias, Intercom, Freshdesk
AI: ChatGPT, Claude, Lovable
Marketplaces: Shopify, Amazon Seller Central, eBay, Walmart
Comms & Reporting: Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Workspace, custom KPI dashboards
‣ THIS IS A GOOD FIT IF
• Your response times are over 12 hours and climbing
• Your Zendesk or Gorgias is barely set up or never maintained
• Agents handle every ticket differently because there are no SOPs
• Chargebacks are piling up with no clear process to fight them
• You've scaled fast and your support operation hasn't kept up
If you're a Shopify or eCommerce brand ready to fix your support operation for good — let's talk.
