Best Deliveries gets efficient, delights customers, & scales up 

Courier, 3PL

Challenge

Get faster while cutting costs and expanding capacity

Best Deliveries is a leading fast-food delivery courier service in Los Angeles. But it was running on manual. “We had full-time staff dispatching and managing phone calls, text messages, emails and it was completely inefficient and expensive to the business,” Best Deliveries said. Clients also had to call or email to place a booking, jobs were dispatched via phone and text, and there was no consistent way of measuring customer satisfaction, or even knowing where drivers were located at any given time. They wanted to grow fast and expand delivery volume, but didn’t have the technology and infrastructure to do so.

Solution

Automatic Dispatch, Driver Tracking, & Customer Data

GetSwift’s solved the problems, one by one. First off, the courier added GetSwift’s white-labeled booking portal, so that jobs could automatically get entered into the queue, saving staff time. GetSwift also added automatic dispatching and easy driver apps, which allowed drivers to start their jobs faster. 

“GetSwift enabled us to cut a huge amount of costs and increase efficiencies and performance across the whole operation.”

It didn’t stop there. For the first time, Best Deliveries could track driver location in real time and evaluate their performance. “Now we have a visual and automated way to dispatch smarter to our drivers in real-time and their capacity per hour has increased,” Best Deliveries said. Handlers love it too because it lets them see all their upcoming jobs from one screen.

Best Deliveries also started getting customer feedback via SMS feedback forms after a job was completed, which allowed them to fix problems immediately and view the business intelligence they need to improve their marketing.
