The start
After a sudden end of my career as Sales Manager in one of the top international courier companies, I fell into a deep dilemma about what I should do next…
So I started thinking about the idea of a business, but realized that this is very challenging.
Initially, I was thinking of working on my own brewery and started to put on paper a business plan. Soon, I realized that I needed a lot more money than I had budget for, so I went back to the drawing board to think and to find my way… I still believe someday I’ll taste a good pint of my own beer!
Not everyone has a business idea they want to pursue. Some people just know they want to start a business: I knew I wanted a business, but I had no idea what it was going to be after putting on hold the brewery. Then I went to an event and the speaker said that all of us could coach somebody on something.
So I asked myself “What could that something be?” and the answer I got was simple: Courier Express Services.
I was in this business for a decade and a half. This is what I can coach everybody on. This is also something I’m passionate about, so I have found the way to continue doing something I really like.
Experience
Fact: 15 years of sales experience, last 5 years and a half as a Sales Manager! I realized that my negotiation skills and my industry experience will definitely make the difference in advising customers for every single feature of the express products they need.
Bang! This was a powerful idea and I started to work it out and realized that it has huge potential. I’ve done some research and found out that actually this business model already exists in the U.S.
I quickly realized that I needed a partner with a strong industry and market knowledge. I had the right person in mind, someone that I considered a veteran with over 13 years of experience in the business. We’ve discussed my idea and funnily enough he told me that he was thinking about starting a similar business!
It was the beginning of a team with over 28 years of experience!
We realized that we have a huge potential to help companies to significantly lower costs on shipping, leveraging our extensive knowledge and use it in the interest of our Customers.
In this business, to make sure you’re getting the best deal, it takes a lot of experience in many areas like strong negotiation skills, analytics, legal, strategy and last but not least industry knowledge.
Challenges
At this point, we started writing our business plan. Refining the legal bits, sale strategy, website, logo, visual identity of the business etc.
It was clear from the beginning that we had also to overcome some challenges, as we faced some reluctance from potential customers, afraid of embracing this new way of doing business in the area.
Outcome
However, all of that is a thing of the past as…
WE ARE NOW PUSHING THE BOUNDARIES OF COMPETITION FOR THE BENEFIT OF OUR CUSTOMERS!
Our first customers asked us to help them navigate the courier market, as they could no longer afford the same costs, considering also the new economic environment caused by the pandemic COVID-19.
We do believe that the essence of our business will lead us in years to come!
We are helping customers to overcome their budget challenges and achieve their goals.
Being successful while working for a GOOD cause, doing something we really like, is the best thing that could happen to anyone!
If you really want to do something, you’ll find a way. If you don’t, you’ll find an excuse.
