It’s Time to Take Shipping Into Your Own Hands!

Posted on January 17, 2019January 17, 2019 by ben

Running a small business can be an awful lot of hard work. You’ll have to quickly make the leap from being a student or an employee (and being told what to do a lot of the time) to holding the reigns of a huge venture and steering your own company in the right direction. Now, there are various aspects of your business that you are going to have to focus on to make a success of the products that you have developed.

But actually selling these products isn’t necessarily the end of your journey. If you’re operating online, you’re going to have to make sure that each and every product purchased makes its way to your customers in good time. National postal services and couriers can prove to be costly when dealing with large numbers of packages. They can also be unreliable. So, it’s time to start taking shipping into your own hands!

Investing In A Truck

The first step that you need to take is to invest in a truck. This will prove to be the perfect means of transporting large quantities of products to suppliers, as well as delivering large numbers of parcels.

Finding A Driver

Once you have a truck, you’re going to need to find someone to drive it. Remember that you need a specialist licence to legally drive heavy goods vehicles, so make sure to check any applicants’ driving qualifications to ensure that they are relevant.

Not only is this a legal requirement, but finding someone experienced will also help to reduce risk of accidents. If accidents do occur at some point, you can reach out to a truck accident injury lawyer by following the advice in the infographic below!

About Us

My good friend Ben started this site many years ago.  Ben said this about himself, “am a follower of Christ, a rabid computer geek, small business owner, and breaker of things. He is married way above his station in life and has three wonderful children who have made driving him insane their mission in life.”

Well back in 2019, Ben suddenly passed away from cancer and he asked me to continue the site. I like Ben, am a follower, a computer geek, a small business owner, and the father of 5 great children.

I miss Ben everyday but run this site in his honor. Thanks for visiting and enjoy!
