Case Study: Voadera Scales Offshore E-commerce Team with SellerPrism’s Expertise
Client: Voadera
Industry: E-commerce
Location: United States
Challenge: Scaling an e-commerce team offshore to reduce costs while ensuring quality hires
Services Provided: Recruitment for offshore hires, focusing on e-commerce talent
Client Background
Voadera is a large e-commerce company with a predominantly U.S.-based team. As their business grew, they sought to scale their team while reducing costs by hiring offshore talent. However, they lacked the expertise to find candidates with the specialized e-commerce skills required for their growth.
Challenges
Lengthy Hiring Process: It typically took Voadera over 2 months to hire a new team member, significantly slowing their expansion efforts.
Lack of Expertise in E-commerce Hiring: Voadera needed specialized talent in Amazon PPC, Marketplace Management, and Business Development but lacked the
internal knowledge to identify and recruit the right candidates.
Evolving Role Requirements: As Voadera began reviewing candidate profiles, their understanding of the roles evolved, requiring a re-adjustment of the hiring criteria.
Solution by SellerPrism
Voadera turned to SellerPrism to streamline the hiring process and tap into a global talent pool. Over the course of two months, SellerPrism helped Voadera hire 8+ offshore positions from Pakistan, the Philippines, and India, with salaries ranging from $500 to $2,500 per month. These positions spanned across critical areas such as Amazon PPC, Marketplace Management, and Business Development
Efficient Hiring
SellerPrism dramatically shortened Voadera’s hiring timeline, helping them fill over 8 positions in just two months– far faster than their usual process.
High-Quality Talent Pool
Voadera was so impressed with the candidates presented that for many roles where they planned to hire one person, they ended up hiring two. In some cases, they even increased the salary budget to secure top-tier Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) with experience at top 10 Amazon brands.
Adapting to Evolving Requirements
As Voadera’s understanding of their needs
evolved during the recruitment process, SellerPrism quickly pivoted, re-sourcing
candidates to align with the new criteria.
Results
8 positions were filled
in under 2 months across multiple roles.
Flexible Hiring
Voadera hired more than originally planned for several roles due to the quality of the candidates presented.
Cost-Effective
Salaries ranged from $500 to $2,500 per month, allowing Voadera to significantly reduce their operational costs.
Quick Replacement
Out of the 8 hires, only one did not work out as planned (after 40 days). SellerPrism replaced the candidate within 2 weeks at no additional cost, and with
an even higher-quality resource.
Conclusion
Voadera successfully scaled its offshore team with SellerPrism’s help, hiring qualified e-commerce professionals in a fraction of the time and cost. By adapting quickly to changing requirements and providing high-quality candidates, SellerPrism enabled Voadera to grow faster
and more efficiently, all while maintaining flexibility in their hiring process.
