Ways E-Commerce Process Automation Cuts Costs and Boosts Revenue
E-commerce is a growing trend, and with it comes the need to optimize business processes. Whether you’re an online retailer or B2B provider, you can use automation to boost efficiency, cut costs and maximize revenue. Here’s how:
An eCommerce process automation solution can help companies cut costs and boost revenue.
Process automation is a powerful tool for B2B companies. It’s a way to reduce costs and increase revenue by increasing productivity, reducing errors, and making your business more efficient.
Companies need to automate order fulfilment.
You can use automation to reduce errors and increase productivity, driving greater efficiency. This is key for eCommerce companies, which are faced with a number of challenges including:
- The time it takes for customer service representatives to pull up orders and make sure they’re complete before sending them out the door.
- Order management errors that result in incorrect inventory levels or delayed shipments.
In many cases, automation can help with order fulfilment by reducing human error and improving processes that typically require a lot of manual work (like printing labels). In fact, one study found that 74% of companies said they were using some form of order fulfilment automation today.
Automation reduces errors, increases productivity, and drives greater efficiency.
Automation reduces errors.
When you automate processes, you’re able to reduce the number of errors made by employees. Mistakes cost your business money and take away from a customer’s experience. For example, if an employee misplaces an order or forgets to input a customer’s address in their system, it will be much more costly for your company than if that information were automatically entered into their system and remembered for future orders.
Automation increases productivity.
As we mentioned before, automation helps businesses cut costs and boost revenue by allowing employees to spend less time on mundane tasks like entering data into a spreadsheet or calculating shipping rates while increasing their ability to focus on more important tasks like making sales calls or interacting with customers through social media platforms like Facebook Messenger and Twitter DM. In fact, according to research by Aberdeen Group as cited by Forbes magazine: “For every dollar invested in process automation software tools such as robotic process automation (RPA), organizations have seen $12-$18 back in annual savings.”
