E-shops, do you analyse your transport costs?

Once the year is over, many people start taking stock. And e-shop owners' stocktaking is no exception when it comes to courier companies, the quality of their services, their customer service and, last but not least, their prices, which make up a substantial part of their costs. At the same time, this is exactly when the phone rings more often with competing carriers offering „tempting“ quotations.

But is an apparently cheaper offer really cheaper? Do you analyse all the variables that can significantly affect the outcome of a quotation?

The Neoship Helper for calculating transport costs

We have a tip that can make your decision a little easier. With our HELPER you will handle the analysis with one hand tied behind your back. Based on the quotations from carriers and knowing how many parcels you dispatch, you simply plug the necessary numbers into a table and the Helper works out the expected cost difference – in other words, it tells you which carrier is more worth working with.

Go ahead, you can get it from us completely FREE.

Of course, it will still be a result that talks „only“ about price. Total dispatch costs are also influenced by other factors such as time, the cost of a man-hour, manual processing versus automation, and so on. We wrote more about this topic in the article The cost of dispatch = the price per parcel?

Would you like it cheap, high-quality and fast?

As in other areas, dispatch is no exception: the combination of fast, cheap and high-quality does not exist. (And if it does, only temporarily …) You can have two of them, but never all three at once: - Cheap and fast will not be high-quality. - High-quality and fast will not be cheap. - High-quality and cheap will not be fast.

Whatever your decision, we hope it brings the results you want and satisfied customers :)
