As return rates are rising by 20-30% due to problems like wrong sizes, misleading content, color mismatches, and delayed deliveries, thus, the returns are eating up profit, customer trust, and brand perception.

The Beginning: "Sales Are Rising, But Profit Isn't Rifat's Frustration"

Rifat, the young e-commerce entrepreneur in Dhaka, was witnessing the daily growth of orders. Everything seemed perfect from the outside: New customers, more sales. However, at the end of each day, when he was checking his accounts, the reality was quite the opposite. His profit was not going up. The reason why is that when he checked the figures, he discovered that the Return Rate was nearly 30%. In simple terms, three of every ten orders were being returned.

Rifat exclaimed, "I am putting in a lot of hard work every single day. So where is the money going?" The answer was apparent: Returns.

2. Wrong size
3. Defective product
4. Poor packaging
5. Delivery delay
6. Expectation didn't match reality

He didn't realize that the whole product content delivery journey was completely messed up.

Then he made the size chart more understandable, added model height and worn size, and added fit notes true to size/ slim fit. The result was that the size-related return rate was reduced by 45%.

Chapter 3: Content - Where Photos and Words Reduce Returns

One of the customer's comments had a major influence on Rifat. It doesn't look like the photos. He checked the content score of the system. The products with bad photos were the ones that had the highest return rates.

Real Pictures: The Quiet Money Saver

Rifat started to make better pictures. He used daylight, showed the product from all sides, gave the exact color of the product, and made close-ups of the fabric. After that, he followed the system content guide; he made very detailed descriptions of material, fit, usage, color, measurements, and everything.

And the result is Not as shown returns were reduced by 70%.  
 

Introducing the Unexpected Game Changer: Videos

The system suggested "Attach a product video." Rifat did that. He showed the fabric, fit, size, and real look. The result is that customer expectations matched the reality, and fewer returns.

Most of the returns that were made had nothing to do with the products, but delivery problems, such as:

• Late delivery
• Damaged packages
• Wrong address

Rifat was supported by an intelligent system to improve:

• Address verification
• Automatic pre-delivery calls
• Correct rider instructions

• Damage-proof packaging checklist

The outcome is that Delay-related returns have been reduced by 60%, and returns due to damaged products are almost at zero.

• What products are returned the most?
• What sizes are causing the biggest problems?
• Which suppliers are causing losses?
• Which delivery agents are the most careless?
• Which areas report the most returns?
