Join 86% of Your Manufacturing Peers that Don’t Use FedEx or Purolator

August 20, 2014

courier services Bigger isn’t always better.  As businesses develop and expand, quality is often replaced with quantity.  Chances are you have seen a video or two of an employee, from one of the big name shipping companies, mishandling or even throwing a client’s merchandise and then taking off before anyone could notice.  Sure, they’ve been in business for years, but once in a while they seem to forget what it took to get them where they are. More and more people and manufactures are switching from big shipping companies to courier services that provide quality service, and really focus on getting your package to where it needs to be safely and in a timely manner.

Courier Services Are Convenient

In life and business, people tend to recognize the finer things in life. Whether it is the kind of car you drive or the brand of clothing you wear, people always have a taste for what matters most. Quality! Nobody goes to a restaurant to pay full price for a half-eaten sandwich. People care about where their money goes! Focusing on quality is infectious, and it spreads to everything associated to it.

Courier companies do an excellent job of making sure they deliver on quality and customer satisfaction. You can customize your delivery so you can get something shipped out securely and giving you piece of mind. In other words, you won’t have to worry about your package or products being thrown around like shot puts.

Faster Shipping

It is no secret that courier services provide fast shipping. While some companies only ship during certain hours and require a couple days heads up, couriers are the nitty gritty people. If they were on a basketball team, they are the ones diving for loose balls, grabbing difficult rebounds and finding a way to deliver. Anytime, day or night, you can depend on them and they won’t disappoint. It’s not that others can’t provide the same service, but consistency matters. You want to go with the proven track record. When the game is on the line, you want the ball in the hands of the playmaker.

Choose Courier services

That’s how it should be! Having to put that power in someone else’s hands is not the way to go. Why should you have to wait for a company to deliver something when THEY are ready to? You should have the choice to have it delivered whenever you want it, from RIGHT NOW to ten years from now. When you are in control, it makes a world of difference. When you are working with a dependable team that can deliver for you and with you on a consistent basis, THAT is what makes a winning formula.

Business owners and people in general are starting to realize that their money matters, “pretty good” doesn’t cut it anymore.  They aren’t settling, why should you?
