Hey @Jane_Watt , what is the exact problem you want to solve in terms of automation. I’m single mom with 3 members handling around 1800 orders/month and we use an automation app that sync tracking info from couriers to Shopify, auto send notification to customers. Hope this helps a bit. Wish you every success [Check the app here](https://partners.omegatheme.com/s/api/affiliates/rel/01ea3f62-f4f6-47ad-b6a9-9bcfb1870d92)
