Efulfillment

If you want to produce the best, you’ve got to incorporate best practices. Transforming your efulfillment process into a flawless operation is a realistic and achievable goal. Your first step? Outsourcing to a quality fulfillment partner – one that’ll pull out all the stops to achieve perfection, every single day.

Customer service is at the core of fundamental business values. If it’s not a thing of perfection, then you’re doing something wrong. Holding yourself to high standards is the only way you’ll achieve customer satisfaction – and customer satisfaction is the only way you’ll achieve flawless efulfillment.

This is your guide to a seamless fulfillment transition.

You’re nothing without customer service

You heard it here first: invest deeply in your customer service.

But how does exceptional service differ from just your average Joe? You’ll want to know the answers before you decide on a partner, so pay close attention. Choosing the qualified and experienced group of professionals over the subpar amateurs might just be what makes or breaks your success! So here’s how to tell the difference:

Customer service that covers all the bases, from beginning to end – not just the call center. It’s important to choose a partner that has a holistic outlook on customer service – if they only specialize in one part of the efulfillment process, you’re not doing your customers any favors. It’ll only result in unanswered questions, unresolved issues, and frustrated customers. Make sure your reps are experts in the entire
A plethora of ways to connect. It’s no longer practical to only provide customers with a phone line – you need a partner that’s savvy in modern times. That means incorporating online chat boxes, quick-response email, social media instant messaging, etc. Customers find convenience in having choices – you’re more likely to satisfy their wants, needs, and concerns quicker if you let them choose the mode of communication. Just sayin’.
While high-quality customer service – communicating with representatives and finding solutions to temporary problems – is vital to your operation, so is customer experience. Your reps have got to be friendly and accommodating, helpful and proficient. The experience should be smooth and easy for your customers – from an easy ordering experience, to the ability to connect quickly to a rep (we’re talking mere seconds), all the way to accommodation when issues arise (providing an instant fix or a refund). Customer service and user experience go hand in hand – when you perfect the former, the latter skyrockets.

You can’t level-up without perfect warehouse and shipping services

When we mentioned a holistic setup above, we meant it. Because you need a partner that can pull out all the stops for every part of the fulfillment operation. You won’t get far if you have perfect customer service but consistently faulty warehouse and shipping services. You’ve gotta have it nailed down through and through, no sneaky loose ends.

Luckily, a quality partner will have already perfected the entire fulfillment process, allowing you to simply outsource and implement their team and tactics. They’ll not only be experts in tried-and-true tricks, but experts in growing and changing with the times to keep you relevant.

It may look like a professional pick-and-pack team that handles every order with care and concentration. Or a hyper-organized warehouse so nothing ever gets lost, misplaced, or ends up in the wrong place. Maybe it’s the FDA-Certified warehouse that can safely house perishables such as supplements or health and beauty products. Or maybe it’s the consistent on-time (early, even) shipping and delivery that customers can rely on.

The sooner they can open the beautiful package they’ve been excitedly waiting for, the better.
