If your business relies on online shoppers you know that the majority of them prioritize free shipping over fast shipping when purchasing holiday gifts online.
This means that you need to find creative ways to cut costs and save money on shipping in order to make your customers happy – and bring them back for more.
Here are 3 tips to help you keep your shipping costs down this holiday season:
- Use USPS® for lighter-weight packages.
By using Endicia for your USPS shipments, you’re already getting the best possible rates for your packages. And, with the private carriers’ use of dimensional weight pricing, you’re bound to save a lot of money with Endicia and USPS when shipping packages under 10 pounds. - Take advantage of free packaging.
The USPS offers free shipping supplies including boxes, stickers, forms and more, for certain mail classes. You can order these free supplies from USPS or through the Endicia Online Supplies Store.
