𝗦𝘂𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆: 𝗢𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘇𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗥𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗟𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗖𝗼𝘀𝘁𝘀 A prominent carpet retailer in South Hampton, NY, was routinely shipping product samples to NYC via overnight delivery. Unfortunately, this method came with two major issues: each shipment cost over $30, and deliveries were often late, frustrating both the client and their customers. Using our parcel management technology, we uncovered a critical inefficiency in their shipping process: their overnight shipments were actually being transported via ground trucks. We presented this insight to the client, recommending a simple yet impactful switch to ground shipping. They implemented the change immediately and saw the same delivery times—without the hefty overnight costs. The result? A 33% reduction in shipping expenses for those shipments. This single adjustment led to significant savings and improved delivery consistency, a win they wouldn’t have discovered without ProfitTrust.

As a new business, setting up your own warehouse is a stepping stone. In the time of 3PL warehouses spread across length and breadth of the country, we chose to have our own mother warehouse. Impossible as it seemed a year ago to even dream this big, we hustled, we saved every penny possible, and made it to this mark while being bootstrapped. ✨Few reasons why we chose to do our own versus 3PL. 1. Cost Saving -The biggest factor. Most 3 PL warehouses charge you for per piece shipped and in our case wherein monthly packs go up to as high as 42 packs a shipment, it just kept increasing cost as we scaled revenue. By moving to our own, we have saved over 20% in monthly cost. 2. Comfort of Backup Plan - 3PL warehouses get impacted by natural forces such as heavier rain/state holidays and so on. While they strive to despatch our orders within a set SLA, it simply wasn't skin in the game. With our own, we now have a 24/7 open warehouse. We will also get impacted by many things, but we will have the control to ensure customers don't get impacted. 3. Better Customer Experience -We have trainer our team to achieve better standards of packing, ensuring the customer gets the right thing and fast! BLEP will now double down and replicate inventory in multiple states with small added cost but added customer experience. #Blep #Bleppetfood #NewWarehouse #FirstWarehouse #Alltimeopen #petfoodindustry #petfoodcompany

Rate and surcharge increases from both FedEx and UPS are expected to wallop bulky package shippers, parcel pricing experts told Supply Chain Dive. This includes furniture, home goods and sports equipment shippers, per analysis from Reveel, a parcel spend management platform provider.

"You've got to keep in mind the indirect benefits, such as your picking speeds. So if a pallet is supposed to be in a location, but it's actually in a different location, that's time spent looking for a pallet that you shouldn't be doing. As a result, it has also increased our picking speeds." Grant Taylor, VP Warehousing, and Todd Brinkman, Cycle Counter Specialist at Taylor Logistics Inc. discuss the benefits their team has seen, like faster picking and more accurate inventory, with our solution. #inventorymanagement #warehouseautomation
