• If issue happens more than a few times create a public disclaimer / apology explaining issue to consumers

Hi Daisy,

We’re really sorry about this – that’s definitely not the ReVibe standard we stand by. Could you please DM us with your order number? Our team would love to make this right for you as soon as possible.

This shows the brand is listening, cares, and is committed to fixing the problem.

Once the public response is made, I would send a dm to protect the customer's details and handle it more personally. I would ask for the order number and product details, then investigate the issue internally reviewing the product batch and speaking with the production or quality control team to understand how the error occurred.

After confirming the issue, I would offer a solution such as a replacement product, refund, or store credit, depending on the customer's preference. I might also include a small gift or discount code as a gesture of goodwill. Once the issue is resolved, I would follow up to ensure Daisy is happy with the outcome and thank her for her feedback.

Internally, I would log the complaint and flag it for the team so we can track whether this is a one-off or a recurring problem.
