ARE YOU PRICING YOUR DELIVERY SERVICES BASED ON YOUR EMOTIONS?

ARE YOU PRICING YOUR DELIVERY SERVICES BASED ON YOUR EMOTIONS? 




















We get asked a lot by delivery companies how to price their services. 

It is very important NOT to price based on how you feel or how you think the customer will react when he/she is told the price.

Here are a few things to consider when pricing your service:
- Your costs - rent, bike maintenance, salaries, phone calls, etc.
- The type of service to be delivered - The current market rate for this service.
- Profit (we are all in business to make money).

We advise you consult an accountant who can run the numbers and come up with a pricing strategy for your logistics company.
What are your struggles with pricing your service? Write a comment, email or send us a dm and we will be more than happy to help.
