Courier Exchange and Satmo partnership
by Fiona Taylor
Satmo have recently linked up with Courier Exchange. Would you like the option of getting more work, just by having your Satmo installed trackers linked to another website?
Courier Exchange is a tried and tested ‘trade-only’ platform for same-day courier and express freight delivery operators. They help their members businesses to improve efficiency, gain new clients and furthermore forge long-lasting business relationships.
How does Courier Exchange work?
- Members post available loads, journey information and real time vehicle availability status on the exchange.
- As a result, Courier Exchange match available vehicles (using location/size/availability) with the load requirement and send a notification instantly via email or SMS
- Members negotiate details and price directly with each other and use the Courier Exchange diary system to confirm bookings and complete the delivery. Members leave feedback for one another. However experienced account managers moderate any feedback left.
What are the benefits?
- Eliminate ’dead mileage’ by advertising empty legs
- Expand your business network with like-minded operators
- Find the best sub-contractors for every booking
- Cut down communication costs
- Manage relationships with trading partners
Do you sometimes find that you have an empty vehicle when coming back from a drop? Why not make use of the vehicle and pick an available load up to bring back. Because the website shows available jobs, and your tracker will be able to show your current position, people looking for available vehicles will be able to see you. While you will be able to see available loads.
Here is what the available jobs could look like;
