It’s time to get busy thinking about your logistics solutions!
Congratulations if, earlier this year or over the summer, you decided to take the plunge and set up shop.
Whether it’s online or you actually have a physical premises, there’s so much to do and such little time.
Most people will have you thinking about your marketing.
They’ll ask you to think about your target audience.
Tell you to get a website.
They’ll rush you to get on social media.
All very important, relevant things to consider in order for things to get up and running in time for Christmas.
Doh! We’ve only dropped the C word in the middle of the summer!
But we’ve been doing this a long time, and we know that one of the most important things to work out early on in the game is…
Logistics solutions!
Oh yes, it’s our favourite word at Smart Directions. We live logistics, we breathe logistics.
Logistics is even a huge part of what we eat these days. Not literally of course. That would be weird.
Why do we bring this up now chaps?
It’s simply a case of logic (see what we did there?). If you don’t get it sorted now, you won’t have time later.
If you have a product and you have a customer base to serve, you will need to consider how product (exhibit A) gets to customer (exhibit B) within the expected timescale for delivery (exhibit C). If you’re part of a supply chain, you will also have a supplier/exporter/importer who is responsible for how much product you have to sell and when. That means MORE logistics.
Here’s our word of wisdom.
If you’ve never done this before, you will almost certainly need to find a third party logistics partner.
You will already have enough hats to wear within your business without having to worry about shipments, documents, customs, freight, weight and everything else there is to learn.
It all boils down to > do you have the time to learn something new and become compliant?
