It’s again that time of the year when businesses would be flooded with sales, customers standing in long queues to buy their favorite products at low costs, and lots of Christmas vibes going around the city.
But, this time it will be different from every year, from sending gifts to each other online to wishing each other over video calls. This year it will all be different. But that should not stop your business.
Holidays are still happening and with no one being able to visit each other or shop for gifts in person, the online shopping experience needs to fill the void. Store owners have to make it inviting for their customers and be able to handle the shipping. Handling shipping is not as simple as packaging and sending. The process needs to be simple, and well done so that there are less chances of missed deliveries, accurate shipping details, and more.
Australia Post is one of the few shipping companies that can handle this. Some of their most difficult days in terms of number of parcels delivered are during the christmas break and they always handle it well.
Being an online store owner there are plenty of things you can try and do to make sure your business is running smoothly and earning revenue. Over the holiday period, there will be thousands of customers who will be ordering multiple things from your eStore, and there is no chance of making any kind of mistake.
The essence of holidays adds up when gifts arrive on time, and customers know where their parcel has reached. To let them arrive on time there needs to be a dedicated feature that allows users to select a particular date and time.
Oftentimes customers complain about late delivery or wrong delivery issues. But, not anymore! With Magento 2 Australia Post extension you have a one-stop solution to all delivery, packaging, issues.
