### Hello Molly reduced dispatch headcount by 15-20% with shipping automation

“Integrating Starshipit with our WMS as well has helped us streamline and reduce the time it takes to fulfil orders. In the first year after implementation, we reduced our dispatch headcount by around 15 to 20%, while maintaining the same output level. That’s helped us lift throughput as we’ve grown, without dispatch labour having to grow at the same rate.”
