Email Players<\/a><\/strong> subscribers asked what printer\/fulfillment house I use for physical products.<\/p>\nSo here’s the scoop:<\/p>\n
I’m a BIG fan of physical products.<\/p>\n
But one thing that can make it a big fat pain in ye olde gluteus assimus is finding a good printer-fulfillment house.<\/p>\n
I’ve used 3 different companies in the last 2 years.<\/p>\n
The other two did everything much slower.<\/p>\n
Plus, I had to manually put the orders in a spreadsheet each day (pain in the buttkus) and send them over, and then hope they got everything right (too often orders were missed, with understandably pissed off customers emailing me a month later asking where their $77-$137 product was…) One of the places (a highly reputable one amongst the goo-roo crowd) would have charged me $400-$800 per MONTH just to go into my shopping cart and download the orders each day (5 minutes of work per day — max). And the other one’s email program wasn’t reading the auto-generated 1ShoppingCart email notices correctly (can you believe that?)<\/p>\n
Not good at all.<\/p>\n
And just one big headache.<\/p>\n
But the company I use now at the above link does everything — print, ship, fulfill, willing to auto-pull orders from the shopping cart (no extra charge – although I just let 1SC email them the notifications now) — and even sends me a daily printout of all my customers along with their tracking numbers.<\/p>\n
Even better:<\/p>\n
They send tracking info directly to me AND the customer.<\/p>\n
(Unless it’s USPS, whose tracking is worthless anyway.)<\/p>\n
I’m extremely paranoid about product deliverability.<\/p>\n
So this was huge for me.<\/p>\n
And, to top it off, their prices are lower than the others.<\/p>\n
Anyway, bottom line?<\/p>\n
I do less “thinking” than if I was digitally delivering everything because I don’t have any tech crap to deal with. In fact, I don’t do any “thinking” at all. If something comes up, I email Michelle (the “super woman” there who deals with all the fulfillment, etc, and is just “on” everything like white on rice — only thing she’s missing is a cape…) and it’s taken care of.<\/p>\n
So I highly suggest checking them out.<\/p>\n
I don’t get any “kickbacks” for referring them.<\/p>\n
I just know they’ll take care of ya.<\/p>\n
