Gain More with Faster Deliveries
It has never been more important and more challenging for Service Providers to reduce their transportation delivery time. Demand for carrier services is high, especially as the COVID pandemic raises e-commerce volumes to exceptionally high levels. The relatively high competition has allowed them to consistently focus on minimising the delivery time. It is one of the major factors that leads to customer satisfaction. Even more concerning in the era of e-commerce, is the pressure of delivering the devices before / on-time by taking complete safety measures. This has led to extreme high expectations of the customers.
At Ajay Agarwal and Company, we offer strict in-time deliveries to get businesses the best out of their shipping contracts and help you save time and money.
How to Optimize Faster Deliveries
1. Efficient Packaging – Because of this, you may receive immense cost savings. The smaller the total volume of your shipment, the more safe and cost-savings service you can give to the customer other than faster deliveries.
2. Group Shipments – It is more efficient for your LTL carrier to pick up a few, larger shipments versus filling a truck with a ton of smaller shipments. By doing this, one can very well save time and cost.
3. Ship on Off-Peak Days- Consider shipping your products on off-peak days, as this can bring more efficiency. Work closely with your shipment provider to create a shipment schedule that’s designed for efficiency in logistics and shipping costs.
4. Zone Skipping – “Zone skipping” is another important way to reduce time and costs. Zone skipping can actually speed up delivery times and reduce the chances of delays and potential shipment damage.
5. Keep Customers Happy – Happy and fully-satisfied customers help in keeping logistics flow very smoothly. This high correlation between client satisfaction and overall delivery time reduction needs to be fully considered, and should be assessed accordingly.
