If you\u2019re a parts manager thinking about selling OEM parts and accessories online, one of your biggest concerns might be how you will deal with the logistics of shipping and order fulfillment. Many dealerships don\u2019t have the processes in place to handle the volume of opening up their inventory to a national or even global market.<\/span><\/p>\n

There can be a lot to manage when you look to expand your customer base by taking your business online. From accurately estimating shipping costs to printing labels for packaging, deciding how you\u2019ll balance it <\/span>without growing your staff<\/span><\/a> may seem overwhelming.\u00a0 However, don\u2019t let these concerns scare you away from selling online!<\/span><\/p>\n

Getting your shipping strategies<\/a> right can increase your chances of making a strong profit from your online parts sales. So how can you ensure that your shipping strategies are solid? Here are five keys to generating the most revenue from your online parts sales without high shipping costs. <\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ header_font=”||||||||” header_2_font_size=”34px” header_3_font=”||||||||” header_3_text_color=”#db3126″ custom_padding=”||0px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Keys to Set Profitable Shipping Rates<\/h2>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ header_2_font_size=”34px” custom_margin=”4px||” custom_padding=”||0px|||” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n

Key #1: Have a Baseline Shipping Strategy Set<\/b><\/p>\n

Depending on how your OEM program operates, determining your baseline strategy is crucial when selling online. There are overhead costs to consider, competitive pricing offers to take into account, and online buying habits that your customers stick to. Remember to compare conversion rates on parts with free shipping vs. parts that don\u2019t offer free shipping when determining your baseline. Split-test your most popular products to gather enough data from your customer base. Once you\u2019ve determined which option is more appealing to your customers, you can determine your pricing strategy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Key #2: Test Your Thresholds<\/b><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re offering free shipping on parts, you need to determine the pricing threshold that still yields a profit. What\u2019s the absolute highest and lowest you can price a part, offer free shipping and still make some money off it? How many conversions do you need to generate enough revenue?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s look at an example. You test offering free shipping on parts at two different threshold prices, $100 or higher vs. $150 or higher. You notice that the conversion rate on the $100 orders is 20%, compared to the conversion rate on the $150 orders at 7%. The higher conversion rate on $100 parts orders with free shipping yields a higher profit for the parts department, so your team can assume that the $100 priced parts\/parts orders should be the threshold for free shipping.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Key #3: Direct Attention Away From Cheaper\/Smaller Parts<\/b><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t waste free shipping on smaller, cheaper parts. Ultimately, they don\u2019t have much of an impact on the bottom line. Even with hundreds of sales for more affordable parts, they won\u2019t cover the cost of offering free shipping most of the time. Instead, offer a lower shipping rate on those parts. If your shipping rates are decent enough, it\u2019ll still encourage customers to purchase from you. If you work with specific carriers to get the best shipping rate on cheaper parts, find the best fit for your parts department\u2019s needs.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Key #4: Add Money-Saving Shipping Features<\/b><\/p>\n

Take the guesswork out of deciding the best shipping options for your parts. A great<\/span> eCommerce software provides weights and dimensions<\/span><\/a> within your complete parts & accessories catalog. These measurements help assure profitable shipping estimates every time. In fact, you\u2019ll use the same strategy as shipping carriers to calculate pricing.<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition to accurate measurements, exceptional eCommerce software alerts you to oversized or hazmat parts that may be costly. With the knowledge of potentially problematic parts, you can easily assess their profitability. Other shipping tools include the automatic calculation of shipping taxes for your orders, as well as the ability to add promotions on shipping costs that will generate more traffic to your store.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Key $5: Simplify Order Fulfillment<\/b><\/p>\n

The RevolutionParts shipping feature allows you to review orders, collect money, create shipments, and complete orders all from a single page.<\/span><\/p>\n

As you prepare to review and complete an order, you can choose options and print a shipping label directly from the site. Further, if you\u2019ve shipped the same part in the past, you\u2019ll be asked if you want to use the same packages as before. This is a handy timesaver as you begin to fulfill multiple orders.<\/span><\/p>\n

After you decide on packaging for the part, shipping options will automatically generate for you. These options are based on the buyer\u2019s delivery expectations and the profit you\u2019d earn.<\/span><\/p>\n
