How to avoid entering the pit by selecting the third-party e-commerce warehouse? For cross-border e-commerce enterprises, the selection of third-party e-commerce storage has many advantages, not only can they enjoy professional e-commerce storage services, but also reduce investment in warehouse, equipment, manpower, etc., reduce operation links, improve operation and logistics efficiency, and enjoy high-quality and light capital operation mode. However, many e-commerce enterprises do not know about the warehousing logistics service industry, and it is easy to enter the pit.

Choose the common pit of the third-party e-commerce storage

1. Low cost and low quality pit

Under normal circumstances, price and service are - one, and the price is usually corresponding to professional service and high quality. The price is cheap, usually corresponding to the general service and the level is general. It is difficult to enjoy high-quality services at a lower price unless the whole enterprise has a lower cost operating business model. For example, mobile phone sales channels are transferred from physical stores to Internet sales, which greatly reduces the channel cost of mobile phone sales.

However, the third-party e-commerce warehouse obviously does not have such advantages. The site, equipment, facilities, personnel, etc. are all the actual costs in it. If we want to use the third-party e-commerce storage at a low price, it will inevitably enter the low-quality pit and enjoy the lower level of logistics services.

2. A pit of unprofessional service

There is no uniform industry standard and service standard in the third-party e-commerce storage industry, and the logistics services provided by each warehouse service provider may be uneven. If e-commerce sellers do not specifically screen, field visit, understand the reputation, then it is likely that they have not known the pit.

3. A pit of imperfect service

The services provided by the third-party e-commerce storage company are different, some of which only provide simple storage services, and some may provide one-stop logistics services such as collection, inspection, warehousing, warehousing, sorting, packaging, delivery, logistics and customs clearance. At the same price, we should choose the cooperation of the third-party e-commerce warehousing company with more abundant logistics services and better service.

4. The pit of irregular enterprise

There are always some informal enterprises in each industry, which can inspire consumers through low price or good publicity, and induce consumers to enter the pit. The same is true for the third-party e-commerce warehousing industry, and some bad businesses will falsely publicize, and impress consumers with low-cost and high-quality service publicity. Only after cooperation, we can find such or such problems. Especially for some small and micro enterprises, the service level is low, the facilities and equipment are imperfect, and the service quality is unstable, so it is easy to have various problems.

How to avoid entering the pit by selecting the third-party e-commerce warehouse?

1. Whether the enterprise is formal or not

The first step in choosing the third-party e-commerce warehouse is to understand whether the enterprise is formal or not. Only formal enterprises can be supervised and service can be well done. Whether the enterprise is formal is mainly to know whether the qualification, working years and other aspects of the enterprise have any information about violation of the rules.

2. Is the service perfect

The service is not perfect, and there will be many problems in the follow-up to cooperation. For example, if you want to deliver goods on behalf of you, it turns out that it is not. Is it very wrong? At this time, you can only send your own company's personnel to solve it. Therefore, when we choose the third-party e-commerce storage enterprise, we should know whether the service of the enterprise can meet its own needs.

3. Understand word of mouth

Understand the reputation of the enterprise through the Internet, whether there is a black history, whether there are major accidents. If so, avoid as much as possible.

4. It is important to study strength

Finally, field investigation is the most important, can understand the enterprise scale, enterprise strength, enterprise service level and other information directly, and can help you avoid entering the pit.
