When you are thinking about starting your own business, chances are, the shipping process wasn’t the first thing on your list that needs to be taken care of.<\/p>\n

But considering how important the final step in the shipping process is, it should be prioritised in your business.<\/p>\n

71% of online buyers rate free shipping<\/a> as a top consideration when purchasing an item, but only 32% are willing to wait 2-3 working days<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Not only the customer expectations make a seamless shipping process so important. The last mile is the most complex and expensive stage in eCommerce. It accounts for as much as 53% of the total costs of goods distribution<\/a>.<\/p>\n

There are plenty of carriers, all with different offerings and services. Finding the right one for your business can eat up time, money and nerves. Besides, you have different items with different measurements and weights being shipped to various destinations. While sending a shoebox to London might be the quickest and cheapest with Royal Mail, when shipping it to Australia<\/a>, Royal Mail would probably not be the option.<\/p>\n

It is hard to get a clear view through all the different offerings, but with World Options, you can easily find the suitable courier for the best rates with just one click.<\/p>\n
