The Challenge: Operational Complexity Undermining Customer Trust

For PharmaPets’ clients, a delivery isn’t just a package—it’s their pet’s next meal or medication. A late order or missing update doesn’t just cause inconvenience; it creates real anxiety. That made the post-purchase experience mission-critical.

With many of their customers enrolled in their subscription service, customers count on timely, recurring deliveries. When a shipment is late or tracking is unclear, it disrupts routines and erodes trust.

But growing pains were creating friction:

  • Inconsistent communication across dropshipping partners and carriers
  • No real-time connection between shipping events and customer data in their Customer Data Platform (CDP).
  • Lack of proactive support, with tickets related to delivery flooding in after issues occurred

PharmaPets needed a solution that could unify delivery updates, power proactive support, and preserve customer trust at every step.

The Solution: Real-Time Visibility Meets Branded Delivery Experience

With their delivery emails boasting open rates nearly twice the industry average (57% vs. 31%), PharmaPets saw an opportunity to turn a functional moment into a powerful engagement channel. PharmaPets chose Shipup to transform delivery into a branded, reassuring touchpoint by integrating it with Gorgias and their CDP, enabling real-time monitoring, proactive issue alerts, and consistent updates across all carriers.

This enabled them to:

  • Send personalized, on-brand notifications at each step of the journey, with FAQs, and links to support.
  • Proactively notifying customers about delivery issues by linking shipping events to Gorgias, helping reduce inbound support tickets and alleviating pressure on customer service teams.
  • Gain visibility into carrier performance to drive smarter logistics decisions.

Results we are proud of

The impact was clear and immediate: Shipup-powered delivery emails saw a 57% open rate—almost twice the industry average. WISMO tickets dropped sharply, freeing up support. Carrier performance became easier to monitor, and cross-team alignment improved, reducing friction between support, marketing, and ops.
