Fulfilment services are offered by many large companies and companies such as The Fulfilment Store offers overnight shipping for all goods and products, 24 hour turn around on all orders and even handles returns for your business. If you are not receiving these as basic services you simply have not worked with the right fulfilment services company yet.

There are many fulfilment services companies that offer you the chance to look at their success rates for recent peak seasons. Most fulfilment services companies will offer same day service, 24 hour turnaround times on returned merchandise, and even handle all returns and credits for your business. But there are few that will offer point of sale logistics for your business. The Fulfilment Store specialises in POS logistics and uses an intelligent routing system to choose the best carrier for your products based on the service cost and use.
Most fulfilment services will also have available the option of your customers placing direct orders through an integrated order solution system and call centre, where your company will have an account manager who deals only with your customers. This not only gives your customers product information, but someone to talk to about their order rather than being left in the dark with no information and no way to contact anyone. Your customers will have help at the tips of their fingers, a phone call away.

If your business deals with kitting, exhibition or events many fulfilment services offer these delivery services for you with complete traceability and information on the carrier for your records. With communication between your fulfilment services company and your client, there will not be a time where your customers will wonder where their products are. Your dedicated account manager through most fulfilment services will be available to speak to at any time for questions you may have.

Many businesses offer more literature than any other type of product, and for these businesses holding large amounts of literature it is costly to store this inventory. For many businesses, it is much less expensive to use a literature fulfilment company to handle this end of business. Not only do literature fulfilment companies offer your business the chance to save on inventory storage, but the headache of returns and shipping. Most literature fulfilment companies will find the least expensive delivery carriers for your products to be shipped with, but they also take care of all returns and exchanges.

These two actions alone take up an average of 23% of a business’ time when it comes to peak seasons. This is time that could be better used dealing with the sales and marketing end of your business.

Instead of holding your own inventory and dealing with the overhead for this requirement, simply using a literature fulfilment company will help to alleviate the troubles associated with inventory and your company no longer has to deal with any of these problems. The product your customers purchase can be handled through a fulfilment company’s automatic online service or you can place the order on their behalf. This allows your customers faster delivery times because most literature fulfilment businesses will offer 24 hour turnaround service and shipping. Your business not only gets less work due to using this business, but also gains a reputation for fast delivery and great products.

Many fulfilment companies will offer monthly or annual packages for your literature fulfilment needs. When deciding on your literature fulfilment company, ask about a dedicated account manager for your business and what systems will be used for your fulfilment.
