**Summary:**_ Sherpa with Starshipit helps eCommerce teams connect orders, labels, tracking and courier workflows without re-entering the same data. Use it to reduce manual admin, keep delivery updates consistent and manage fulfilment from a more centralised process as order volume grows._

Last year, [22%](https://searchspring.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/SS-EOY-Report-ebook-Final.pdf?_ga=2.264173516.135640672.1655663649-1538484001.1646615388) of eCommerce stores agreed delivery and fulfilment was their greatest challenge. As consumers delivery expectations get higher and higher, competing against eCommerce giants like Amazon can feel daunting.

The good news is, couriers are stepping up to the plate and offering services that not only meet customer expectations but exceed them.
