The problem with silent orders
WooCommerce can email you, but inboxes are quiet by default. Peak hours bury messages. A dedicated order notification sound cuts through — warehouse staff look up, founders smile, nobody scrolls five tabs to notice revenue.

Why not a random “beep” plugin?
Many plugins only play sound if wp-admin is open in a tab. OrderAlerts streams to an extension and phones so you can leave the dashboard. That is the difference between a gimmick and an ops tool.
