Editor's Notes

  • #2 Greetings & Good afternoon to all Today I am going to take you through a brief PowerPoint of who we are at v-technologies and a few StarShip highlights After the PowerPoint I will jump right into the demo of the software and I will conclude with opening the floor for questions

  • #6 We currently offers a direct integration with over 25 different carriers Here is a list of a few carriers that we work directly with .
  • #7 In term of international, here are some of the features and documentations that we provide through StarShip.

  • #8 Here we see a real example and how Pitney Bowes and the USPS can help you save money on shipping. [Run through Scenario, Details, Box] As detailed on last page, you see the dimensional weights for this box. I then took their published rate and applied a 25% discount (some of you may have a greater discount on ground products with private carriers, others not so much) to come up with the base rate. Add in the fuel surcharge and residential surcharge for home delivery and you can see the savings potential. Also, if going from CA to NY you’re generally looking at 4-5 days for ground service with private carrier vs. 2-3 days with USPS Priority service.
