New Zealand Order Fulfillment Services | New Zealand DropShipping

The selection of third-party e-commerce fulfillment dropshipping agent is very critical. They have advantages in terms of service quality、 service scope、 service fees、 etc. If they are not selected well、 subsequent cooperation is prone to various accidents. Therefore、 we suggest that you should pay attention to these aspects when choosing the corresponding company.

Geographic location: The location of the third-party company is very critical、 or it is located in the first tier cities、 where there are very rich logistics resources. If the location is not close to your own、 you should not choose other locations for the docking of goods. Later cooperation will be inconvenient.

Service content: whether the service content of the third party company can meet its own warehousing and logistics needs、 such as professional storage space、 camera equipment、 security commitment、 etc. If the third party company cannot provide、 do not choose.

Service level: The service level may not be high、 but it must not be low. It can reduce the occurrence of cargo accidents and ensure the delivery efficiency.

Corporate reputation: we must see the corporate reputation、 which can help us step on many pits less.

1. Self built warehouse by the seller

This category is the overseas warehouse built by the seller himself. The advantage of this kind of overseas warehouse is that the seller can control and manage itself and is flexible. The disadvantage is that the seller needs to solve the problems of warehousing、 customs declaration、 logistics and transportation、 and the construction cost and risk of self built warehouse are also large. In addition、 it is difficult to obtain advantageous prices in transportation if the delivery volume is not large.

2. Platform warehouse (e.g. Amazon FBA)

This is a service provided by Amazon itself for sellers. At the same time、 Amazon has many preferential policies for users: for example、 it helps sellers improve the ranking of products on Amazon's pages and become featured sellers. However、 the fees are expensive、 the customer service is not up to standard、 the flexibility is poor、 and it is also very annoying.

3. Third party overseas warehouse (such as Todropshipping fulfillment)

The actual cooperation between cross-border e-commerce and third-party overseas warehouses also falls into two categories.

1. The market demand of products should be large

This is the basic principle. Long tail products are not suitable for overseas warehouses、 because it will affect the conversion rate and produce life and death inventory. However、 the size of the market is reasonable、 and the seller needs to evaluate according to the capital situation and turnover rate.

2. Focus on the total profit per unit time rather than the profit of a single transaction

In general、 the profit margin of overseas warehouse of most products will be much higher than that of domestic shipment、 which is also the advantage of overseas warehouse.

Is it true that the profits of overseas warehouses are not as good as those of products shipped domestically、 so they must not be overseas warehouses? In fact、 it is not because we also need to comprehensively consider the conversion rate of overseas warehouse、 because products with high conversion rate can also achieve higher total profits through overseas warehouse!

This requires our sellers to look at overseas warehouses from a developmental and overall perspective.

For example、 if the profit margin of a product shipped from China is 20% and that of an overseas warehouse is 10%、 but the conversion rate of an overseas warehouse is 6 times that of a Chinese shipment、 the total profit obtained in the same time period is 3 times that of a Chinese shipment. Therefore、 we should not only look at the profit rate、 but also calculate the overall cost and benefit.

Express delivery to foreign countries is generally sent by international express

General international express service providers include: DHL、 UPS、 fedex、 TNT、 EMS、 DPD、 etc.

The specific express delivery and the express delivery to be sent abroad shall be determined according to the specific information of the goods、 the name of the goods、 whether there is electricity、 liquid、 paste、 brand and other factors.

Therefore、 it is necessary to decide which channel and which international express to take according to the actual situation!

Because every international express has its advantages and disadvantages、 we can't give a general answer to which express to send abroad!

1. We should confirm the weight and volume with the customer in a timely manner. If the customer does not confirm the weight and volume、 the cost will be very troublesome after the goods fly out.

2. In air transportation、 customers usually declare their goods and documents on the same day、 so it is troublesome to arrange the shipping space. If possible、 declare as many shipping spaces as possible. It is difficult to add if there are fewer shipping spaces. If there are more、 you can find a way to collect goods.

3. Generally、 the airline and the first-class agents have basically arranged their seats before 12:00 noon. In this case、 it is not appropriate to take over large cargoes that are required to take off the next day. You'd better not take over until the space is determined、 otherwise you will be very passive.

4. In principle、 air cargo requires that the cargo should be stored in the airline warehouse for more than 24 hours. In actual operation、 it should be handed over the night before the plane takes off. Special urgent goods can be handed over on site. In principle、 4 hours before the cargo plane takes off and 2 hours before the passenger plane takes off、 but do not suggest the customer to hand over the goods on site as early as possible、 unless you can make a special decision.

5. The waybill shall be confirmed with the customer in a timely manner、 and the Chinese name for customs declaration shall be provided by the customer、 etc.
