Has order shipping become the new problem of your online store? Not anymore! Choose the right boxes for your orders, keep your customers happy and give your e-shop a boost of profitability.
The pandemic may have caught you unprepared and you may have made hasty moves to meet the new, increased demands of your e-shop, but two years later you have no excuse not to make the most advantageous decisions for your e-shop. These decisions include the packaging you choose for shipping your orders.
If your daily routine consists of orders reaching your customers in damaged packaging, customers opening oversized boxes disproportionate to the product they ordered, or you've hit a dead end with shipping costs, then it's imperative that you continue reading this article to discover what to look for when it comes to choosing boxes to ship your orders and how they can help your e-shop overall.
1. Size matters
Choosing the right packaging box that fits your customer's order product not only serves to ensure that it reaches the recipient unscathed, but can also save you unnecessary shipping costs. Many online store entrepreneurs lose some of their money by investing in the wrong packaging, disproportionately large for the product of the order. Evaluate the size of your products and think twice about the different box sizes you need to use.
2. Do not underestimate the value of impressions
It is not uncommon that customers are disappointed by the state of receipt of their order. Boxes that are battered, often torn or crumpled create a feeling of disappointment that leads to the customer's lack of trust in that particular e-shop, while you as a business owner miss the perfect opportunity to create goodwill for your products. Your customers want to have a perfect experience overall, from the moment they enter your e-shop to the moment they get in their hands the product they have been waiting for.
3. Be unique
The more unique you are, the more memorable you will be to your customer. Personalize the shipping box with your logo, your tagline and even a message that represents you and enhance your business reputation. Make it easy for your customer to know from the first second which e-shop the order he received is from and give him the motivation to deal with it. If you get him to spend a few seconds processing the box he holds in his hands, your brand will be better imprinted in his memory and he will remember you the next time he wants to make a new purchase.
4. Explore your options
Don't leave your e-shop packaging to chance. Trust the experts and discover your options based on your products, your audience and their buying habits. Jewelry needs different packaging box specifications, clothes or electronic devices need different ones, and even the quality of the boxes can vary if most of your orders are placed within the city and region, within the country or travel abroad.
