I'm Avigaile Garde — a multi-disciplinary operations and business development professional with 14+ years of experience across payment processing, account management, sales, e-commerce operations, restaurant marketing, and bookkeeping. I've worked with US-based companies across Florida, New York, Melbourne, and Singapore, and I bring a rare combination of technical understanding and relationship-first thinking to every role.
From managing high-value merchant accounts and payment processing compliance, to building restaurant owner communities from the ground up, to co-founding a web design agency and a direct ordering platform — I don't just execute tasks. I understand the bigger picture and help businesses move toward it.
I'm based in Tarlac, Philippines, and work fully remote across US and international time zones. Whether you need someone to own your operations, grow your pipeline, or manage your accounts with the care they deserve — I'm ready to step in and make things work.
A broad skill set backed by real experience — not just job titles, but results across industries and time zones.
Account management, merchant onboarding, compliance, payment gateway troubleshooting, and client support for payment processing operations. Deep experience with US-based processors and high-risk merchant accounts.
End-to-end relationship management — from onboarding to retention. Building trust, solving problems, and acting as the primary point of contact between clients and internal teams.
Organic outreach, community-based lead generation, LinkedIn prospecting, cold email, and pipeline management. Identifying and qualifying the right opportunities for your business.
Strategy, content creation, community management, and engagement — particularly for B2B and service businesses. Building trust and visibility through storytelling that connects with your audience.
Managing the operational side of e-commerce businesses — expense tracking, financial organization, reconciliation, and keeping records clean and audit-ready. Including payment processing reconciliation for multi-processor stacks.
Administrative operations, team coordination, onboarding, CRM management, and keeping multiple workstreams organized and on track. The behind-the-scenes work that makes everything else run.
Beyond client work, I co-founded and actively run businesses of my own — which means I understand what it takes to build something from the ground up.
A web design and digital services agency I co-founded with my husband Herbert. We build professional websites, landing pages, and sales funnels for small businesses and e-commerce clients — specializing in clean, mobile-optimized design, payment integration, and online visibility. Live sites include multiple e-commerce storefronts, supplement landing pages, and service business portfolios.
A direct ordering platform built for Philippine food businesses. Direkto gives restaurants a free ordering website so their customers can order and pay directly — via GCash, Maya, card, or QR Ph — cutting out the 25–30% commission charged by food delivery apps. Positioned as "zero commission, direct to you."
As Restaurant Marketing Specialist for Wee.Business (NJ-based), I build and manage an engaged online community of restaurant owners — creating content, driving conversations, generating leads, and connecting owners with strategies to increase profitability and reduce dependency on third-party delivery platforms.
Managing payment processing reconciliation and bookkeeping for US-based e-commerce operations, including multi-processor reserve tracking, deposit analysis, and revenue reconciliation. Working with processor stacks involving NMI, HitPay, and other payment gateways across multiple merchant accounts.
14+ years across payment processing, operations, sales, marketing, and customer service — with US, Australian, Singaporean, and global companies.
Whether you need someone to manage accounts, grow your pipeline, run your operations, or build something new — I'd love to hear about it.
