100 WAYS: #20 Double Check Scales for Accuracy
– January 21, 2011
Somebody in your mailroom should be responsible for knowing how to mail parcels out of your office economically. This includes weighing all packages to ensure your company avoids overpayment. Also, there is a big difference in cost when shipping overnight delivery compared to 2-day ground or standard delivery. It is important for your company to have policies and procedures in place to monitor when items truly need to be received by your customers. If effectively followed, this can have a significant impact on your bottom line.
This is Profit Enhancement Idea #20 in Heard, McElroy & Vestal's 100 Ways: The Profit Enhancement Process series. The purpose of the series is to assist business owners and managers in cutting costs and increasing revenues by working smarter, not harder.
