Parcel Refunds: Make Sure You’re Getting Yours

Posted under Business And Finance

We’ve all been through tough shipping situations. We schedule a shipment because we need something to arrive on a certain day. And we depend upon them to do what they say; they’ve promised after all. But sometimes it just doesn’t happen. Most companies are absolutely unaware of this fact until a BIG problem is brought to their attention. This leads them to think that it’s a rare circumstance. But is that actually the case?

Do you ever wonder if maybe you have problems with your shipping provider frequently…you’re just not aware of it? A lot of shipping providers are pretty conveniently understanding of missed deadlines and inevitable delays. You won’t even hear about them. Most companies just aren’t aware of it unless it actually creates a problem. That’s where Parcel Savings can step in and be useful. They monitor shipping activity for their clients looking for failed or mishandled deliveries, etc. Most are amazed at what they find.

Taking advantage of ParcelSavings.com’s free 6 month analysis leaves businesses and corporations shocked at how much money they have doled out unnecessarily for shipping. They’re always surprised at the number of shipping problems that occurred that they were absolutely unaware of. And they’re even more surprised to discover that they were not offered any refunds or discounts on services that were not, in fact, provided.

These unnoticed late shipments often leave the company’s clients dissatisfied with the company’s service and often lead to turnover. Another prominent issue that ParcelSavings.com usually turns up during the analysis is residential delivery charges to commercial addresses. Companies often don’t notice the additional fee or are unaware that the address they are being charged extra for is not residential. This type of parcel management service doesn’t affect the company/client relationship, but it does affect the company’s bottom line when it comes to shipping costs. You’re due a parcel refund that you aren’t getting.

ParcelSavings.com actually manages the parcel refunds and discount requests processing for their clients. And they do it for a small percentage of the amount of parcel refunds they actually obtain for their clients. So not only are they saving their clients money, but they’re not asking for payment unless they are successful and they are increasing their client’s ability to build a lasting relationship with their own clients.Many companies quickly realize it’s worth it when they see thousands of dollars in parcel refunds coming in weekly.

Nothing is more disruptive to a professional relationship than lack of follow through on a guarantee. Parcel management is aware of that and believes that no one should pay for a service that they didn’t actually perform. So don’t wait for the next time you NOTICE a shipping problem. They’re happening and they’re affecting your bottom line and your relationship with your clients whether you are aware of it or not. Take control. Don’t leave the control of your company’s shipping in the hands of your shipping company. They’re not watching out for your bottom line. They’re watching out for their own.
