Once you’ve made the leap to outsourced order fulfillment you’ll probably have some ideas about what new directions you’re ready for your business to explore. Whether you operate a traditional real world storefront or participate in the ever-expanding world of Internet ecommerce you probably have a marketing plan and a growth plan that you want to be able to start working on. Now that your outsourced order fulfillment is in place and managed by a reliable and super-efficient independent service provider, you’re ready to build your business up. The following suggestions are just some of the ways you get busy working on your new levels of success.

Improve Your Storefront

Did you know that many manufacturers offer incentives for business to own and maintain their own storefront? By leasing your business a real-world retail space, you get the satisfaction of classic American business ownership while qualifying for some intriguing assistance from your product suppliers. If you already have a storefront, you can spend the money you save on fulfillment operating costs on renovation and expansion, building the storefront and interior that you’ve always imagined but never thought you could afford.

Improve Your Website

Online businesses grow every year in size and profitability, with the ecommerce marketplace steadily coming to rival its real-world counterpart. If your business needs an online presence, one of your first post-outsourcing projects could involve getting your business into the world of online retailing. Fulfillment service companies are more than capable of accommodating online businesses, helping them deliver to their customers with the same speed and accuracy extended to their traditional client businesses.

Market Your Business For Improved Industry Visibility

Freed of the countless hours needed to administrate your order fulfillment, you’ll have the luxury of time to promote the business you’ve worked so hard to establish. Many service provider companies offer direct mail marketing campaign services, that will help you reach your customer base through catalogs, brochures, newsletters, and other printed materials. The service provider company readies these materials for mailing, seeing to their sorting and postage, and delivery to the postal service. Once your customers see your improved capabilities, you’ll see your business’ momentum pick up speed, creating even greater and more sustainable success in the immediate future and beyond.
