Am I Overpaying for Shipping?

• Are you unsuccessful negotiating competitive discounts with carriers?

• Do your invoices include shipping & handling charges?

“Yes” to either means your shipping costs could be out of line!

• Compare your shipping costs as they relate to annual sales (1 to 3% of total is typical)

Key Strategy #1 Obtain Discounts with Carriers

• Join an industry trade association (CFMA)

• Use the negotiated, discounted shipping

• GOAL = Best service at the lowest possible cost

Key Strategy #2Be Aware of Your Inbound Shipping Costs

• Why is this important?

• How does this work?

• What is Shipping “Collect”?

• Advantages — Add profits to your bottom line!

Vendor Prepaid vs. Inbound Collect Small Package Savings Example

Small Package - 35 lbs.From: Cleveland, OH (44074)To: Boston, MA (02184)
