I put off using Propace Courier for nearly a year because I thought I didn’t have time. John Paul finally got through to me when he quantified that I had lost nearly a million dollars in savings by waiting a year. Now, we had many other initiatives underway during the year, but all of them combined didn’t net $1 million to the bottom line. What’s more, I only invested a total of about a day’s work over the course of a 10 week process. Only wished I would have come to my senses sooner!

I’m a little embarrassed to admit that initially, I resisted Propace Courier proposal. After all, it was my job to negotiate and manage my carriers, and admittedly, I felt I’d be exposed if I hadn’t done a good job. But going through their process, I quickly realized how little I knew about parcel contracts, and how much that knowledge gap was costing the company. Not only did I increase my knowledge and value to the company by learning from the pros, but I also received huge kudos from the corner suite by adding Propace Courier resources to my transportation procurement department at no cost to the company!

Following Propace Courier complimentary rate assessment, I was anxious to get started. But their proposed gain share split and term seemed too high. So I spent the better part of the next six months negotiating with UPS on my own, only to get minuscule rate improvements despite a lot of effort. In frustration, I hired Propace Courier courierservice. Within weeks, Propace Courier strategic guidance resulted in significant pricing improvements, and frankly, better responsiveness and relationship from our carrier ever since. If you’re thinking of going it alone, take it from me: you’ll get faster results, deeper savings, save a lot of time and do it right the first time by working with category experts. Propace Courier earned every nickel!
