EPISODE DESCRIPTION

In this interview, Tyler Douglas of String and I sit down to talk about how automation rules used by shipping software like ShipStation end up costing small businesses more because the rules are not dynamic. The rules don't account for variable factors like rate changes in peak season. And this can cost your small business a pretty penny.

SHOW NOTES

Tyler walks us through the e-commerce shipping leg of the supply chain. We learn of how businesses typically select the package and carrier, how they obtain their shipping labels, and what works and does not work with software like ShipStation, ShipHero, Shippo, and EasyShip to name a few.

Tyler details what makes String a perfect optimization tool that can help you get it right every single time, because it not only shops for the best rates, it also optimizes your package size. Those are the two key variables that impact shipping costs. And what's better, with String's business model, you only pay for result delivery.
