It will help you understand whether managing the service in-house or outsourcing it is best for you.

A guide to shipping and delivering e-commerce products

What aspects make a customer satisfied when they buy online?

Order tracking and possibly insurance
Safe, careful packaging
Fast delivery
Possibility of return

Managing e-commerce shipments therefore means taking on the costs associated with warehouse organisation, stock control, storage, and order picking and preparation. Not just that: but also packaging the goods, ensuring fragile goods are safe, and delivery. All of this must be done as quickly as possible, because one of the most frequent reasons for leaving the basket or raising a customer complaint is timing. According to Sendcloud research, 86% of consumers consider fast delivery, together with free shipping, to be among the most important factors when purchasing online. This means that offering competitive times compared to competitors gives a real advantage: it keeps customers loyal and reduces the margin for complaints and returns. To learn more about how online ordering is transforming an entire sector, read the article in the news section of our website How e-Commerce Impacts On Logistics. Another factor to consider is staff: to ensure a quality service, it is necessary to hire qualified professionals, trained in warehouse management and able to fulfil both small B2C orders as well as larger B2B orders, in Italy and abroad. So, what is the best way to organise e-commerce shipments? Rely on an experienced outsourcing company like Inovys Logistic.
