For while in business it is possible to muddle along without too much planning. Many business have humble beginnings. Bedroom operations that took off and started to grow. Many people have set up little e-commerce operations in the last few years. Either as a way to make some money on the side or as a full time job. Perhaps in response to redundancy. At first it’s OK to keep stock at home and send out orders in the evening after a full day working on the business or at another job. However, as things grow then this system needs to be more organised and slicker. After all, with mail order it’s all about delivery times.
Successful e-commerce businesses soon reach a point when they need some additional help with pick and pack. It’s not possible for the owner manager to handle this any more. So it’s time to source a partner for distribution and warehousing too. Because successful businesses rapidly run out of room for stock too.
With better arrangements for warehousing and pick and pack, businesses can continue to grow and move forward. This type of outsourcing allows them to challenge the bigger operators in the marketplace. Choosing the right partner is important. A partner who can be relied upon to understand the needs of an expanding business and provide a cost effective and efficient service.
