Here’s how you can Optimize Order Processing Time
In fulfilling a customer’s order successfully, order processing time plays a pivotal role in ensuring customer satisfaction. Done hundred (and maybe more) times in a day, you should aim to optimize the time needed for each step in the process.
The faster the order reaches the customer, the happier he/she would be, translating into successful sales and profits for you. So how can you optimize your order processing time? Read on.
How to optimize order processing time?
- Order transmission
Set up a process to relay daily orders from point of sale to warehouse or storage without leaving out any and without any time delay.
- Order consolidation
When you have multiple sales channels, consolidate all of them and send together to the packaging department for processing. It is ideal to use a multi-channel order and inventory management system like Browntape, which stacks together orders from various sources and provides access to multiple personnel. Along with saving time, it helps to avoid human error.
- Inventory centralization
With Browntape, your orders from multiple channels flow into one centralized portal keeping track of your entire inventory. Here too, you can save time without having to tally orders and inventory manually.
- Packaging
Although the actual packing has to be done manually, you can automate the rest. For example, you can print shipping labels and invoices from Browntape to cut down on processing time.
