Above all, many companies who have an e-commerce and physical shops already use a Ship from Store strategy to boost sales. But what exactly is this omnichannel sales strategy and how can RAJA help you?
For example, let’s say you deliver your orders online through a single warehouse and your customer requests, via the web, a TOP selling product. Although the product is out of stock online, you have stock available in a shop close to your customer’s delivery address. With this, and thanks to the implementation of a Ship From Store strategy, you can respond to your customer’s request via your nearest shop in order to intelligently manage your global stock. This way, you will increase your sales and, in addition, you will reduce the inherent costs of delivery.
Consider using your shops as small warehouses
Until now, online sales have generally been managed from an in-house or outsourced logistics warehouse. In this sense, this offers advantages in stock management and storage capacity, but creates difficulties in delivery times and directly impacts distribution costs and the sales margin.
“In an omni-channel sales strategy, the Ship from Store solution allows you to efficiently manage the shops’ stock to respond to online orders in a more agile way, and achieve customer satisfaction and profitability.”
Victor Sanchez, E-Commerce & Retail Business Manager at RAJA
Evidently, the change to this new model implies adopting technological changes to intelligently deliver the order to the nearest shop and reduce costs and delivery times.
But also, what other challenges do shops face in transforming into small warehouses and supporting the increase in sales from the online channel?
- For example, the lack of storage space for packaging;
- On the other hand, the need for training in packaging and picking solutions;
- Likewise, minimising costs and delivery times, etc…
