FTS SAVES YOU TIME & MONEY!
Businesses often face the challenge of meeting customer expectations when it comes to delivery times and service quality. In today’s competitive landscape, businesses like yours must be able to deliver products in a timely and reliable manner while still providing excellent customer service. This is where FTS can help!
By leveraging the expertise of FTS, companies can ensure timely delivery, reduction on errors
and a decrease in shipping costs. This, in turn, leads to improved customer satisfaction.
FTS VS. OTHER 3PLS
At FTS, we believe in focusing on flexibility and personalized support, ensuring your business gets the attention it deserves without the constraints of long-term contracts and commitment.
WHAT SETS US APART
NO Contracts!
The majority of 3PLs make their customers sign contracts (1 year, 2 years, 5 years, etc.). FTS will never have customers sign contracts. Contracts come from companies with higher customer turnover rates!
Top Service
We pride ourselves on providing above and beyond customer service no matter how small or large your company is. Every client of ours deserves the same amount of attention.
Your Success Is Our Success
In general, 3PLs have no desire to understand your business model and/or goals. FTS on the, other hand, is interested in your overall business. If you are not succeeding, then we are not succeeding.
DID YOU KNOW?
Did you know that 96 of the Fortune 100 companies use a third-party logistics provider?
The fact that third-party logistics companies are a testament to the efficiency and effectiveness of their services.
However, many moderately-sized companies wonder whether a 3PL is truly advantageous on a smaller scale. The reality is that 3PL services can benefit businesses of all sizes, and they are an excellent way for a company to take itself to the next level.
WHY USE A 3PL?
When you use a 3PL provider, you immediately gain their years of knowledge and ensure that your shipping policies and practices are the absolute best available.
Continuous improvement without needing to lift a finger! Just as you are constantly striving to improve the buying experience for your customers, FTS is constantly improving its services to benefit you. We can improve by offering faster, less expensive shipping options, and simplified customization tailored to your needs. With the assistance of FTS, both you and your customers that you are receiving a continuously improving shipping platform, which benefits your bottom line.
-
FTS can negotiate volume discounts by combining shipping needs from multiple carriers to offer better shipping rates. LTL carriers know that 3PLs will continue to bring on new customers, therefore, the carriers will provide higher discounted tariffs to us versus to a business who is going to them directly.
-
Similar to freight discounts, accessorial charges that may include fuel surcharges, limited access locations, and delivery liftgate fees are also negotiable to pass lower charges on to you.
-
3PLs have extensive carrier networks and the knowledge to know who is considered a “good/dependable” carrier versus a “poor/non-reliable” carrier.
-
3PLs reduce the rate of returns, claims and shipping errors.
-
One of the biggest advantages of using a 3PL is their ability to provide companies like yours with greater flexibility. By using FTS, our customers save time, money and resources that would otherwise be devoted to managing these transportation operations in-house.
