You're simply unable to meet demand at this time.
In order to keep up with demand, you have to start recruiting family and friends to help pack boxes. The number of monthly shipments is in the hundreds.
This is a problem because you're spending too much time on low-value tasks that don't contribute to growth and revenue. More time will be devoted to fulfilling orders as the company expands, leaving less time for management tasks.
By teaming up with a third-party logistics provider, your company can save money and time, allowing you to put those assets toward other strategic goals like product innovation and expansion.
How to Find the Best Third-Party Logistics Provider
If you want your business to expand, you need a reliable fulfilment company that can manage your stock, give customers a good experience, and keep customer satisfaction at a high level. You should ask these three questions of any prospective third-party logistics partner if you decide that doing so is the best course of action for your company.
1. What sets you apart from regular 3PL companies?
An alternative to the commonplace "pick, pack, and ship" model should be sought out when outsourcing order fulfilment. This cutting-edge strategy for fulfilment can assist your company in making more precise predictions of future demand and enhancing the overall satisfaction of your clientele.
2. In what cities are your 3PL distribution centres situated?
When discussing the location of a 3PL, we aren't just referring to the physical location of their headquarters or offices. You should also inquire as to the 3PL's fulfilment centre count and the precise locations of each facility.
You can use this data to see if you can provide your customers with the fastest shipping times and lowest 3PL order fulfilment shipping rates. In addition to domestic fulfilment centres, as you expand internationally, the number and location of 3PL warehouses can help inform your shipping strategy, including distributed inventory and two-day shipping.
