Today you will not surprise anyone with the opportunity to order any product from a country located in another corner of the globe. For all of us, online shopping has become the norm: it's convenient, cheap and fast.
True, in order to really get your order on time, we often have to turn to intermediaries. This is true if you buy from stores in the US and other countries that do not ship directly to Russia.
The work of intermediaries
What are these companies, what is their task? First of all, the services providing mediation services are engaged in receiving parcels in the country where the store operates. Then they take them to their warehouse, pack them properly and send them to the client (in Russia). This is how the classic customer service scheme looks like, and, alas, it is not ideal.
There are many problems with intermediaries. For example, one of them is related to the fact that purchases on the Internet can become more expensive due to the cost of delivery. By ordering a pair of shoes on some American resource cheaper, you willyou overpay for their sending, which makes the whole order unprofitable.
In addition to the high price for the client, organizational problems can also be mentioned as a negative point: the intermediary company needs to collect all orders, place them and process them as soon as possible. Given the time delays, possible obstacles at customs and other details, this, again, is fraught with problems.
Simplifies the operation of this whole chain of a new service called "Bandler" (collector of orders). Customer reviews note that this site combines intermediaries, which makes it possible to send packages ordered from several services together, and this significantly reduces their cost. In fact, the service acts as a platform that cooperates with all services that deliver orders from abroad, and improves the quality of their work due to this.
Service Description
In fact, the model on which the "Bandler" (collector of orders) operates, reviews of which we will give later, is not revolutionary new. It was built on the simple principle of consolidating the efforts of different people who work in the same market to improve their service. In addition, here, on the company's website, there is information about in which stores certain goods are purchased, those of them that are most in demand are listed.
Positioned "Bandler", the collector of orders (reviews can confirm this), as a platform that helps intermediaries. On the company pagethere is even information intended for those who wish to start this business of helping customers place orders abroad. That is, we can say that the service can be a great start for beginners in this segment.
Even for large companies that have their offices in the US and other countries, there is an obvious benefit of cooperation with the "Bandler" service (order collector). How this platform works, we have already described. This is the "reduction" of the client and the intermediary, one intermediary with another, larger partner. Firms that have their staff abroad can earn money on this - they will help others to carry out orders from their clients. Thus, it turns out “circulation of orders” within the framework of one system.
If one could dream of such cooperation before, now, when "Bandler" appeared, a collector of orders (reviews prove it), such interaction has become more than real.
Customer acquisition, order processing
Nevertheless, the presence of the service that we describe does not make it possible to speak of a complete absence of competition between intermediary organizations. Whether it is an individual or a large company with a large number of employees, in any case, they need to take care of attracting new customers, obtaining regular orders and expanding the range of stores. And this is achieved through small steps, expressed in the right marketing (creating groups on social networks, advertising activities) and a proper approach to the client.(polite treatment, clarification of all details, checking product information on store websites).
Products, promotions and discounts
Another interesting tool that “Bundler” can please is a catalog of discounts and products that can be useful to the client. If you are just starting out and are not properly oriented in which stores are in demand among Russians ordering online in the United States, you can use the catalog of the described service. Here you will find not only the latest orders, but also the most interesting stores for the client, and even discount coupons in them. Needless to say, all this can be used to advantage in attracting new customers.
Fares
For intermediaries, the entrance to the "Bandler" can be carried out according to three tariff options. The first of them is free, designed for joint purchases of friends or just those who want to order a lot and regularly. The package is called “Standard”.
The second in the package hierarchy is the “Large” tariff. It will cost $ 23, and is suitable for most of those who operate in this area. Here you are given the opportunity to take your domain for the site (made on the basis of the platform), and also the link to the "Bandler" itself is excluded. The status of the customer's order, all information about where your parcels are, how they are combined - all this also comes with this service.
The most expensive tariff is called “Mega”. It costs $47, and its feature isthe ability to automatically accept payments from customers, take orders from other intermediaries for servicing, and also have a reduced price per order (only 5 cents against $0.2 provided by other options).
Help to intermediaries
If you'd like to get started on this site, there's even more information on how to get started here. It provides not only ready-made tools for running such a business, but also provides valuable advice on what needs to be done and in what order. Also, of course, user support is provided here - both customers and resellers.
By the way, the registration of the buyer is carried out on the same official website called “Bandler”. By clicking on the appropriate button at the top of the page, you choose whether you would like to open your account as a reseller or a buyer.
Customer Reviews
We could not find recommendations from intermediaries, since there are probably not so many such participants on the site. There are much more buyers here who are interested in orders. Consequently, we managed to find reviews about the service only from the client side. As they show, the Bundler service has excellent tools for those who make a purchase to track the activities of the intermediary. For example, here you can see whether your order was made by him, and also there is all information about the product. That is, if you are a customer, you can also use this service to control who processes your purchase.
Conclusions
As a result, it can be noted that “Bundler” is a universal product that has a number of advantages both for the client making the purchase and for the intermediaries themselves. Therefore, it can be characterized on the positive side and recommend to friends to place orders in the US through this platform. After all, it is more convenient and reliable.
