Original Air Date: February 6, 2018

Ready or not, your e-commerce business is in the midst of a battle over fulfillment speed and accuracy, with your product vying against dozens of other listings. Who will win the sale? That depends on many factors, including delivery time. Let’s look at your fulfillment experience...

Consumers have come to expect fast, free shipping — and the availability of these options drive purchasing decisions. Brands and retailers that can’t deliver fast enter the battlefield with a significant disadvantage. In this environment, many e-commerce leaders are asking the following critical questions:

• Who is managing order fulfillment for my business today? 
  
• Is that team meeting consumers’ increasingly demanding expectations? 
  
• Is it time to re-evaluate how my business is managing order fulfillment?
  

Using a third-party logistics partner (3PL) is a great way to improve fulfillment speed and meet marketplace performance requirements. In fact, finding the right logistics partner can help position your online business for scalable growth. Yet, for many, understanding how to evaluate and select the right fulfillment partner can be challenging.
