414: Section 321: Borderless Ecommerce At Your Fingertips


Listen Later

Dwayne Johnson talks about SCI; Section 321 & the rise of borderless e-commerce; & why a well-designed cross-border supply chain can be a competitive advantage.

IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:

[06.45] An introduction to SCI, what they do, and how they help their customers.

"Everybody is competing for customers, so it's important to build a model where the shipping is sustainable, but so is the cost."

[09.15] The ideal client for SCI.

[11.09] The changing face of the logistics industry, and why embracing that change is so important.

"We, as consumers, are driving the change. Who thought it would take a few days to get something from Asia? Supply chain is changing every day."

[14.10] A closer look at the landscape of logistics, the key challenges and opportunities, and why consumer mindsets are shifting.

"Amazon has changed the way we, as consumers, think… but it's starting to shift – and consumers are thinking 'do I really need this straight away?'"

[18.25] The rise of borderless ecommerce, and how SCI is helping customers to embrace it.

"We started to understand trade agreements… then we went to our customers and had conversations... And the impact you can have by talking to a customer about being able to avoid something like duties – it's tangible dollars."

[21.12] The secret to SCI's competitive advantage, and how they're helping clients to create well-designed supply chains and unlock international markets.

[25.57] How SCI is helping customers with international expansion and localization.

[28.39] A case study showing how SCI helped a key customer to embrace borderless commerce with section 321 and put $ 6 million back on their bottom line.

"That money could open retail stores, add to marketing, and help you expand internationally. Handing people that much money is a big advantage."

[31.54] The importance of partnerships when it comes to creating competitive advantage, and what it looks like to work with SCI.

[34.31] How organizations can get started with Section 321, and what they should be thinking about before they start.

[36.54] The future for the industry, and for SCI.
