UPS Summer Shipping Solutions

Hey there!

We recently signed up for UPS Summer Shipping solutions which gives us discounted rates on NDA and delivers by 12pm the next day.

Has anyone had experience marketing this discounted rate to their customers? I’m wondering if the best way to do this is to have the customer contact me so I can give them an estimate based on their location.

I’d prefer to have the rate be calculated in the cart…but that means creating a new pricing structure for NDA based on packages going all over the country. I’m also considering subsidizing part of the cost, so that’s an added dimension. Any thoughts or experience with this? Help!

Hey Donna,

How about making a Summer Shipping strategy and you can build out the special pricing so that it can be calculated in the cart?

As far as marketing goes, I feel that shipping rates promotion works best when you make them strategic. So rather than quote $27.52 for your shipment, quote $25.
