How Using a Logistics Service Provider can Help You Prepare For Your Peak Season

It seems like the holiday season arrives earlier each year. We begin seeing Valentine’s Day decor at New Year, Spring decor before Valentine’s Day is over, and Christmas keeps hitting earlier each year. This trend of early promotions means merchants need to step up their game to compete with others businesses in their same field. No matter which season is your peak time for sales, there are at least three ways that outsourcing to a logistics service provider can help you continue to grow your business.

Scalability

Whether your busy season is the end of the year holidays, the summer, or even select times throughout the year, Elite OPS has you covered. We offer warehouse space tailored specifically to ecommerce business owners that allows them to economically ramp up their inventory during peak sales seasons, and scale back as needed without incurring excess costs that would be required if you were handling your inventory on your own.

Inventory Management Services

As your peak season approaches, typically your number and type of products will increase as well. While peak season is exciting as you watch your sales ramp up, for those handling their own fulfillment, it can also be stressful. During this season, your order fulfillment, shipping and customer service need to be no less than perfect, and outsourcing to a logistics service provider is just the way to achieve that.

To handle your peak season, Elite OPS utilizes the most up to date technology to ensure your products are shipped right every time. Our Warehouse management software helps us monitor inventory levels with real time data and inventory counts. Our WMS system provides real time information  and other comprehensive reports that give you a clear view of top selling products and even the slower moving items to ensure you have top selling products on hand at all times.

Customer Service

Building customers’ trust during each of your peak seasons makes a difference for your orders and fulfillment. When a customer knows that if something goes wrong during the fulfillment process that they will be taken care of and treated with respect, they are more likely to continue purchasing from you in the future. Our goal is that everything in your fulfillment process runs seamlessly during your peak season; and, when a bump hits the process, Elite OPS provides exceptional customer service to protect your brand image.
