brands say biggest hurdle to implement BOPIS is inventory & logistics
Why Brands Need BOPIS
Customers expect to see convenient fulfillment options when shopping online—and are frustrated when they can't receive their item in their preferred way. And frustrated customers head straight to your competitors.
Couple that with the fact that final mile order fulfillment isn't cheap—averaging 53% of the total cost of shipping—especially for direct-to-consumer retailers.
While brands understand the need to offer BOPIS, the challenge becomes actually implementing it. What's the best way to expose store inventory on your storefront? How do you ensure that inventory is accurate to prevent "out of stock" messaging? How do you create seamless experiences across both digital and physical channels?
That's where a dedicated order management system comes in.
