“Customers are looking for a real promise-to-delivery, based on trust and reliability”, said Antonio Perini, CEO of Milkman Technologies. “Pre-configured delivery schedules are no longer perceived as enough; customers become more and more selective by choosing their preferred time-slots and paying accordingly”.
The ordering process represents a real opportunity to influence the shopping experience: offering flexible time/date slots gives customers the extraordinary power of selecting the window that fits their needs, paying a price that is adjusted dynamically, according to current and projected capacity.
Benefits for Retailers and Shippers are twofold: economically incentivizing wider slots guarantees better-distributed volumes and eliminates infeasible deliveries reducing operational expenditures.
“There are customers who value a particular time window regardless of cost, so dynamic pricing tools help maximize the revenue opportunity for the business”, comments Antonio Perini.
