Editor's Notes
- #5 Many trucking companies are faced with – manual processes, inefficient & costly operation & everyday chaos Why? Customers check status of shipments by asking your office staff Your staff uses the phone or email to respond to these questions manually Customers also request proactive info including email and vendor interface updates or spreadsheets More manual update work for your staff! And, if they don’t know the answer, they then have to check in with your drivers or third party carriers. Manually! Plus, manually tracking chassis and keeping tabs on billing errors from equipment providers adds even more for your staff to do. Despite all the effort – customers may not be up to date and frustrated To make matters worse, if you want to grow your business, you’ll need to grow your staff Which means most of your additional revenue goes to paying for increased staffing costs There has to be a better way!
- #6 There is a better way! Over 300 Intermodal trucking companies use Profit Tools to automate their operations from order to invoice and customer service. This gets your staff out of the middle Updates are recorded by office staff, drivers and third party carriers as they happen PT then makes this info available to customers automatically when they want it and how they want it PT can send customers email notifications when the status of their shipment changes and instant electronic PODs upon delivery And, update customers in-house systems via EDI so your staff no longer needs to update vendor interface websites PT can also sends spreadsheets & reports automatically when customers want them Customers are happier Your business is scalable without expanding staff
