How Hungry Chef Reduced Return Rates by 57% with Onsite Support

By improving their support capabilities to reduce returns, Hungry Chef saved over $109,000. Here's how they teamed up with Onsite to educate customers and provide timely assistance.

The Problem

In the first month of their product launch on Amazon, Hungry Chef faced a significant challenge: a 50% return rate on their ovens. As FBA sellers, there was no way for them to communicate with customers directly. They were at risk of losing their entire investment of $300,000 in product costs and shipping.

Identifying the Root Cause

WHAT’S
HAPPENING?

customer dissatisfaction and
unnecessary returns

WHAT’S THE
REASON?

one small missing piece in some units preventing ignition

WHAT CAN WE
DO?

provide replacement parts and
guidance

After a brief audit, Onsite found that the most common reason for returns was caused by a single small missing piece in the ignition knob. Customers were setting up their oven only to watch it fail to light due to the missing piece. It became clear that providing better guidance and small, low-cost replacement parts could prevent extremely costly returns.

The Solution

Onsite Support stepped in with a branded help center.

Most FBA sellers and vendors don't have the means to communicate with their customers. They only find out something’s wrong once a return or bad review is already in motion. Onsite Support’s goal is to bridge this gap.

Onsite provides guaranteed enrollment in Amazon Product Lifecycle Support. Thanks to that, Hungry Chef can now step in before returns are even on the table.

Hungry Chef’s Amazon customers see a “Get Product Support” button when they attempt to make a return or provide feedback. Clicking it leads them to an Onsite help center. There, Hungry Chef can address product installation issues or offer part replacements quickly. This makes it easier to keep customers satisfied and returns at a minimum.

Key features implemented with Onsite included:

Custom

Replacement
Claim

The Results

Onsite Support’s custom help center turned potential returns into satisfied customers. 154 Amazon customers said they encountered problems. But thanks to Onsite’s proactive solution, 89 of those customers were guided to the support page. There, their concerns were promptly resolved before they could leave a negative review.
