One-piece drop shipping is a new modern delivery model. With the development of cross-border e-commerce, it has emerged as a logistics delivery model. Due to its efficient and convenient logistics model, it is deeply loved by cross-border e-commerce sellers. For novice cross-border e-commerce, you may not understand this model. So how should you do one-piece drop shipping on a cross-border e-commerce platform? Let’s take a look at it next.
1. Choose a freight forwarding company to cooperate
Cross-border e-commerce sellers who want to do one-piece drop shipping need to choose a freight forwarding company to cooperate. Here, the editor reminds everyone to choose developed cities or coastal cities when selecting a freight forwarding company, such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen, because these companies are developed cities and are located in coastal areas, with developed transportation and logistics resources, so they will have advantages in price and timeliness.
2. Goods are delivered to the warehouse
After the seller has decided to choose a freight forwarding company to sign a cooperation agreement, he needs to transport his products to the warehouse of the freight forwarding company for storage, and use the warehouse of the freight forwarding company as a temporary storage and delivery place. The amount of goods that the seller stores in the freight forwarding company should be controlled to be enough for the normal sales volume of one month. This is just the right amount, not too much inventory will be occupied, and not too little will affect the inventory. When the inventory begins to decrease, there is time to fill the warehouse inventory.
3. Docking ERP system
The freight forwarding company’s ERP system is connected to the seller’s operating system. When an order is generated on the seller’s operating platform, the data will be fed back to the ERP system, and the logistics channel can be directly selected to place the order. One-click order processing is convenient and fast, which can save time and improve efficiency for sellers.
4. Receive order shipment
When an order is generated on the operating platform, the seller’s platform will be directly connected to the logistics system of the freight forwarding company. The seller can use the order management software to select the logistics channel online to obtain the order number according to the characteristics of the product and the destination country. The information of the shipment will enter the company’s logistics management system for product packaging, product sorting, cargo transportation and other operations.
The above are the steps for cross-border e-commerce sellers to do one-piece delivery.
