In the world of eCommerce shipping, flex delivery options are essential to allow consumers greater flexibility and accessibility to your product or service.
After all, convenience is key, and customers want easy and efficient shipping solutions.
So, what is flex delivery, what are the benefits and how do you use it?
Let us be your guide in learning more about how this unique delivery solution could be just what your business needs to take things to the next level and how Cantec Couriers can help get you there.
What is Flex Delivery?
Flex delivery is a popular delivery service utilized by many large businesses, including Canada Post and Amazon, through their Amazon Flex service.
Essentially, flex delivery allows customers to select precisely which post office or address will receive their delivery of an online purchase. Customers can also choose a specific time to receive their delivery, negating the need to stay home and wait for their package to arrive.
It’s a secure, efficient and convenient way to use delivery services to the benefit of your business.
Flex Delivery can deliver you additional earnings and offer your customers greater flexibility and accessibility for their purchases.
In the context of small to medium-sized businesses, this could lead to a hefty expenditure.
However, Cantec Couriers’ transparent pricing eliminates the administrative and financial headache of paying exorbitant prices and finding trustworthy delivery drivers by having all of these services ready to go whenever you need them!
What are the Benefits?
It’s business 101 that the customer is always right.
This concept extends to speedy and affordable delivery. Flex delivery is becoming increasingly enticing. Sometimes, it’s even the deciding factor for which businesses consumers opt to use. Like we said, in the eyes of the consumer, convenience is key!
Several contexts could apply regarding why customers would want to utilize flex deliveries.
Such examples include not being home for a delivery, shipping gifts discreetly, customers temporarily relocating and wanting to pick up an item at a nearby post office, or travelling while anticipating a package and wanting the accessibility to pick it up in the most convenient location for them.
Having the flexibility to choose when and where they can pick up their package is substantially appealing for consumers who want fast and efficient delivery to suit their life and needs.
Supplying flex delivery options could thus convert more customers to your business and boost your overall sales.
With Cantec Couriers, you can satisfy these customer needs by supplying what they want where and when they want it with same-day delivery!
Additionally, many shoppers are willing to pay extra for flex delivery and same-day deliveries. However, this service should be attractive enough that customers are willing to pay more without cutting into your bottom line.
