At Veho, we are building the future of shipping and partnering directly with brands to bring it to life. We obsess over every package and every customer. And we've proved that our focus on exceptional customer experience results in significant improvements to CSAT, NPS, and LTV (up to 40% higher) for shippers. Read more from our CEO Itamar Zur on how Veho is creating the most tech-forward and customer-centric shipping platform in the world.
Seven years ago, I cold-emailed the CEOs of FedEx and UPS with a proposal: “Give me six months. I will help you build the future of shipping.” UPS never replied. An executive from FedEx did get back to me, saying they could build the tech themselves. They never did build that tech. Instead of waiting for legacy players to change their ways, at Veho we decided to build the future of shipping ourselves and partner directly with brands to bring it to life. We set out to build the most tech-forward and customer-centric shipping platform in the world. We designed our culture from the very beginning around the customer and made ‘Obsess Over Experience’ one of our six core values. We decided to obsess (and still do!) over every package and every customer. We don’t always get it right, but we ALWAYS look for feedback and try to get it right the second time around! We launched innovative products like our Consumer Mobile App - where customers can leave direct instructions for the driver and track their order - and the Perfect Placement Photo feature, which drives a >77% reduction in delivery issues. And we proved that our focus on driving a superior customer experience results in significant improvements to CSAT, NPS, and LTV (up to 40% higher!) for our brand partners. That’s a big part of the reason we have grown retail and apparel volume by 300% this year while national carriers continue to struggle… At Veho, we believe that the shipping industry must innovate for the e-commerce era. Just don’t bank on giants like UPS and FedEx to do it.

Retailers: Customer Lifetime Value (CLV) matters more in 2024 than ever before. Customer acquisition costs via digital marketing have soared >40% this year amidst competitive pressure and evolving consumer behavior. According to the 2024 Salesforce Shopping Index, the number of repeat buyers has surged by 8% in the last two years. Looking ahead to peak, Salesforce forecasts that 2 out of 5 purchases will be made by loyal repeat buyers—an undeniable testament to the power of customer retention. It is more essential than ever that e-commerce retailers focus on building a loyal customer base. 1) Leverage Your Loyalty Data: Harness the wealth of information from shopper profiles, including delivery preferences and purchase histories. Delight customers by personalizing every interaction, including the delivery experience. 2) Incentivize Loyalty: Think beyond discounts. Offer loyalty perks like early access to exclusive merchandise and expedited shipping. 3) Drive Loyalty through Delivery: At Veho, we've seen firsthand how a customer-centric approach to delivery—powered by our technology— bolsters brand loyalty and elevates customer lifetime value. 82% of executives at e-commerce brands agree--noting an outstanding delivery experience improves repurchase rates and brand loyalty, driving a +51% increase in Customer Lifetime Value. The realities of today's retail environment underscore why customer satisfaction is imperative across every customer touchpoint, especially the last mile. That's the core idea behind Veho, and why we built the most customer-centric delivery experience on the market. ↗ Learn more: www.shipveho.com/brands

Too many brands focus narrowly on one metric: direct shipping fees paid to carriers. Shipping - typically the second largest cost item in e-commerce P&L - should be viewed first and foremost as an ROI center, not just an expense. Hear from our CEO Itamar Zur on why a holistic ROS view will dramatically alter your strategy around which shipping partners to choose. #shippingisthenewshopping
We got it all wrong. One of the biggest mistakes companies make is failing to properly evaluate return on investments (ROI). So many companies are leaving cash on the table, really for no good reason. It happens in almost every business area. And to be fair, we have made that mistake too. Many times. Take this example from Veho as case in point. We used to calculate the cost of defects (think packages that don’t make it to their destination on time) solely based on credits we give brands - what we call restitution costs. But when we looked closer, we realized we were missing the much bigger picture. When examining and aggregating the broader impact of defects, we uncovered we were also paying extra for customer service time, double handling of packages at our warehouses, inefficient routes and accounting overhead – to name just a few cost buckets. This comprehensive breakdown revealed a much higher total cost than we had accounted for – prompting us to reprioritize all projects to drive down defects as close as possible to zero. We decided that defects are not “the cost of doing business.” They are just too expensive, and more importantly - they are not aligned with our superior product offering. So we weren't going to put up with them, at any level. The same principle applies to shipping costs. Too many brands focus narrowly on one metric: direct shipping fees paid to carriers. They may save a few cents on a package here and there, but in doing so, they overlook the full impact of shipping and the delivery experience on their P&L. A bad delivery experience means more time and money spent handling customer complaints, higher refunds and credits, higher overhead costs, damaged brand reputation, and customer churn. In other words - it costs a lot more than a few cents. Shipping - typically the second largest cost item in e-commerce P&L - should be viewed first and foremost as an ROI center, not just an expense. It is all about maximizing Return on Shipping (ROS). A holistic ROS view can dramatically alter the strategy around which shipping partners to choose and where to focus tech investments (hint: you should work with shipping partners who prioritize your customers' experience). Brands who have embraced this broader perspective have seen transformative results. For example, in partnering with Veho, Tuckernuck has seen significant drops in their call center volume. Holistically, they are saving an average of 35% on shipping with Veho as compared to other shipping companies. It’s time to think beyond the obvious and unlock value across functions. What steps are you taking to optimize ROI holistically across your organization?
