Any business can promise cheap deliveries
All businesses recognise the costs of winning over those customers and getting the orders in. It requires clever marketing, customer service agents, and state-of-the-art online platforms (among other things) – none of which come cheap. But it’s only part of the game. It costs valuable time and money to send out those orders too!
Costly dispatching systems and mainstream courier services are often a neglected part of the business process – slipping under the radar as ‘unexciting’ necessary evils. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Businesses can easily claw back some of the costs of sending out orders with Go People’s cutting-edge, on-demand solution offering cheap deliveries.
Go People’s software enables businesses to book and sort orders and have them delivered at a time of choice for the lowest price. This includes next-day, same-day, under 3 hours, or whatever suits your needs. Here’s how.
Step 1: Posting a job is easy
Go People customers can easily send individual items by posting the job on the platform and completing all the necessary pick-up, drop-off and parcel type information. But what’s even better, businesses that require a large volume of deliveries can process these using Go People’s “bulk upload” function.
Once the pick-up location is entered, customers can upload an excel spreadsheet which contains all the necessary information about the jobs required. And there’s no need to worry about the spreadsheet either – Go People will provide that for you. From here, all you need to do is select your service type, confirm and pay, and our platform will immediately allocate all jobs to the fastest and cheapest available runners.
Step 2: Choose the speed and service to suit your needs
At Go People, our aim is to provide you with a pain-free, cheap delivery service that suits your business’ individual needs. So, we have three types of delivery which will cover all your bases.
GoSAMEDAY:
Go People’s technology allows our 17,000 runners to bid for available jobs. In turn, our sophisticated algorithms automatically select the cheapest and fastest runner who will pick up and take your delivery straight to the customers’ door. That means we don’t have to mess around in a depot unloading, sorting, scheduling, and reloading delivery vehicles. It also means we can promise cheap deliveries by getting your orders from A to B within the day at a lower cost than other services.
GoVIP:
By cutting out the handling processes involved with traditional courier services, Go People can offer a premium service which ensures your delivery will be made within 1, 2 or 3 hours. All customers need to do is select the timeframe required at the time of booking.
Hire a GoSHIFT Runner:
Businesses that frequently experience large volumes of deliveries may prefer to hire one of our dedicated runners to take care of their needs. This is otherwise known as “booking a shift”. Through the Go People platform, customers can simply create a shift by specifying the date, time, number of runners, and length of shift required. And we’ll do exactly as the name suggests – we’ll assign a runner who will dedicate that time to your delivery needs.
Step 3: Keep an eye on progress
Unlike other courier services that simply let you know once an item has been dispatched, Go People issues every customer with a live tracking number. This enables customers to see exactly where a runner is at any given time through our online tracking map. As soon as the delivery has been made, proof of delivery will be sent as confirmation.
And we like to give our customers a more personal service too. At any time during the delivery, you can enter comments via the app or webpage which will immediately notify the runner. Alternatively, customers can call the runner directly using the mobile number provided. Now that really is something new for the courier industry!
