“It’s like shipping inception”

• Are we in a Shipping Inception or are 3PLs and 4PLs really that complicated? 
• Identifying where your customers are is key in choosing the right 3PL solution for warehousing and shipping. 
• “Despite the Amazon narrative, not everyone needs everything in 30 seconds… I think it's critically important for brands to manage customer expectations, meaning if you don't have the infrastructure to do two day delivery, then don't promise to do delivery.” - Nima
• Having a 3PL like Whiplash can help smaller businesses scale and keep shipping costs lower.
• “I really am confident that retail is going to see a rebirth... We're getting a lot more brands asking how can you support these smaller shops, maybe two or three per quarter over the next year?” - Ryan
