How to ensure fair and honest rates for your business

Being in the pricing driving seat

Looking at the rate card from your provider, it’s natural to be curious about how they got to their pricing decisions. You might be fearing that you’re on a different pricing structure than other clients. Maybe you’re afraid to express concerns for fear of getting a bad deal when it comes to renegotiating your rates. It’s important when you have fears such as these to speak with your logistics partner frankly, crucially asking, what’s their model for creating rate cards. If their answer is convoluted or not transparent, it may be time to say good bye.

Ideally you want a provider that understands and encourages your growth. By working with a provider that helps reduce costs as you scale, you’ll be able to reduce or even eliminate shipping costs for your customer.
