LTL Shipping for Ecommerce
The Problem
Until now, manufacturers of large products had a huge headache trying to figure out how to sell shipping solutions to their clients.
They could only:
- Build huge shipping rates into their site and pray that it would cover the actual shipping costs. This made them either too expensive or they lost on shipping.
- Ask customers to contact them for shipping quotes. This meant horrible sales conversion and bad customer experiences.
- Just decide it wasn't worth selling online.
The Solution for LTL is Here
Commerce-On-Demand has taken its 12 years of Ecommerce experience and teamed with a modern Freight & Logistics company to create a SalesForce Commerce Cloud (SFCC) and Magento software solution that takes all of the pain, risk, and customer dissatisfaction out of the Ecommerce experience.
