Courier Services for Online Businesses
Twenty years ago if you would have told my little Italian Nana that we’d be hailing cabs with an app and grocery shopping online, she might have patted your head, walked away, and called to have you committed. A lot’s changed since then.
We can do everything online these days. Including buy and sell merchandise. Especially buy and sell merchandise!
With over 2 billion digital buyers spending trillions of dollars online, eCommerce is booming. If you’re a small business that operates solely online, or a brick-and-mortar shop that maintains an online presence, you know how difficult it can be to get product into the hands of your customers. Shipping rates are high, truck drivers are scarce, and more customers than ever are staying home instead of hitting the stores to shop. What’s an online business to do?
We have a few ideas.
Courier services for online businesses are more in demand than ever before. Here’s what eCommerce platforms are looking for. Could your organization utilize any of these options?
Store, Pick, Pack, and Ship
Strictly eCommerce organizations have to have a place to store their product, seeing as there’s no storefront. But the right storage facility can do more than store. Storing product- including temperature sensitive or FDA regulated items- is just the first step for eCommerce. Finding a logistics provider to pick and pack the product on your behalf is the next step. This takes a lot of trust, and probably a bit of tech. That’s not all, though. Shipping the product to your customer for that final mile delivery is the last, and most crucial step for online businesses. Finding a unicorn to do all of this for you, though, is the real test.
Eagle Express not only stores your product on site at our FDA certified warehouse, but we’re also utilizing state of the art warehouse management software to assist in picking and packing your product based on real time inventory updates. Then we’ll move it to your customers on your behalf. Whether your final mile is across town or across the country, we’ve got storing, picking, and shipping covered.
Routine Pick up and Delivery
Running an online business can be tough enough. Remembering to order supplies, dropping off final products, and picking up materials are tasks of the past. Now, with the right delivery team, you can set up a schedule for your routine deliveries once- and then enjoy having your items arrive on time every time without a second thought. Routine pick up and delivery saves eCommerce businesses time, stress, and money.
Dedicated out of Town Shipping
One of the best perks about eCommerce is that it serves customers around the world. Getting products to those customers, though, can get complicated. A dedicated courier like Eagle Express offers out of town shipping to anywhere in the continental United States. If your product needs to move even further, no worries! Our office is located within a few miles of two airports. We offer next flight freight services as well as airport pick ups for shipping that has to move farther, faster.
As a dedicated delivery provider, Eagle Express will never hand your cargo off to a third party (until it hits the air, that is), or consolidate loads. When you hire Eagle Express, we work that job for you and you only. We focus all of our efforts into a successful delivery on your behalf.
Whether you’re just getting started, expanding, or reducing in-person operations, there are courier services for online businesses just like yours- and Eagle Express handles it all!
