While many online shops have to hire 5–10 employees and still struggle with orders, some “one-person” shop owners handle hundreds of orders a day and still have time to grab a coffee. What’s the secret?

1. “Doing 10 jobs alone – I can’t live like this!”

Ms. Hà (29) opened an online clothing shop on Facebook and TikTok Shop two years ago. Every day, she has to:

• Take product photos (2 hours)
• Write captions and descriptions (1 hour)
• Reply to customer inboxes (3 hours)
• Pack and ship (2 hours)
• Run ads and track orders (2 hours)

“I work 12–14 hours/day, sell about 200 orders a month, profit 15 million VND. It’s exhausting, but if I hire staff, I lose money. I don’t know what to do,” Hà sighed.

This isn’t just Hà’s story, but that of thousands of small shop owners in Vietnam. They want to scale but don’t have enough capital to hire; they want a break but are afraid of losing customers.

2. The secret of “solo” shops selling 500 orders/day

While Hà is still “headaching,” Ms. Phương (31) — also selling clothes online — is sipping coffee and checking orders on her phone. “487 orders today. Pretty good,” she smiles.

“How do you handle it alone?” — everyone wonders.

“I’m not working alone. I have a ‘virtual staff’ doing it all,” Phương reveals.

It turns out Phương has automated 80% of her work with AI for online shops:

• Product introduction video → automatically created by AI
• Replying to inbox → AI chatbot
• Running ads → AI marketing that optimizes budget
• Writing product descriptions → AI writes in 30 seconds

“My job now is just: sourcing, packing, and counting money. AI handles the rest,” Phương shares.

3. Yofatik AI – the “national tool” for Vietnamese shop owners

Why do online shop owners choose Yofatik AI?

• Lightning-fast video creation: “5 minutes 1 video. I make 20 in the morning, post in the afternoon. Insanely fast,” Ms. Lan comments.
• Natural Vietnamese voices — customers like it: “Vietnamese customers prefer Vietnamese voices. Yofatik’s Vietnamese AI voice sounds very natural, not ‘plastic’ like some foreign tools,” Mr. Tuấn compares.
• Low cost — suitable for small shops: “Small shops like mine don’t have big budgets. Yofatik AI packages are only a few hundred thousand VND/month and make hundreds of videos. Such a deal,” Ms. Mai calculates.
• No skills needed — anyone can use it: “I only know how to sell, not make videos. But Yofatik AI is very simple: pick a ready template and done,” Ms. Hương says.

4. The secret weapon: mass AI product videos

What makes Phương’s shop stand out is product videos. “On TikTok and Facebook, videos have 10× the reach of still images. But shooting videos takes a lot of time,” she explains.

Before, she hired video shoots at 500,000 VND/video. With 100 products = 50 million VND. “Too expensive, I couldn’t do it.”

Until she discovered Yofatik AI — an automatic product-video generator. “I just upload product photos + a short description, and AI makes the video with narration, music, professional effects. 5 minutes/video instead of hiring someone for 2–3 days.”

Results:

• Before: 1 video/week, reaching 2,000 people, selling 10 products
• After: 10 videos/day, reaching 50,000 people, selling 150 products

“I created videos for all 100 products in just 2 days. The cost was under 2 million VND. 25× cheaper,” Phương calculates.

6. Advice for online shop owners who are “overwhelmed”

1. List the repetitive tasks you do every day
2. Identify what can be automated with e-commerce AI
3. Use Yofatik AI’s free trial to create your first 5–10 videos
4. Post the videos to your sales channels and track results
5. If effective, scale up — make videos for all products

“Don’t be afraid to experiment. I was skeptical at first, but after using AI, I asked myself why I hadn’t used it sooner. It completely changed how I do business,” Phương advises.

7. AI isn’t a luxury — it’s a “lifeline”

Many small shop owners think AI is a luxury for big companies. In reality, AI is a “lifeline” — helping small shops compete fairly with big ones.

“Previously, big shops had an advantage because they could afford teams to make videos and lots of staff. Now small shops can also make high-quality videos thanks to AI. The playing field is fairer,” Phương affirms.

The question is no longer:

👉 “Should small shops use AI?”

but rather:

👉 “Will you use AI to get ahead, or be left behind by competitors?”
