Speaker 1: Hi, my name is Cameron. I'm an independent operator of my own business, and I have used ShipStation for I think about five years now, and I give it five stars. Previous to ShipStation, I was just running through the U.S Post Office app and printing my postage and I would deliver it by hand, and so to be able to just drop it in the post out in the mailbox is a huge time saver and saves a lot of money. So definitely appreciate the automation. I chose ShipStation because they were affordable, I think it was like five to 10 bucks to start. And immediately they had good customer service, so it wasn't difficult to set up. It's twenty-four seven customer service. It's a big deal if you're an entrepreneur. Sometimes you're working through the night. It's great to be able to reach somebody and solve a problem. It only took about, I think 20 minutes, 15, 20 minutes, and the first time I was using, I had an aide and they took me through the whole process. So that was... As far as I remember, it's been a while, but yeah, it was fairly easy. So less than 30 minutes. Definitely recommend it. Saves a ton of time, is affordable. 10 bucks a month, and has probably saved me a lot of money and a lot of time for sure, compared to what I used to do, which was just go by hand and manually drop all these off at the post office. So definitely recommend it.
