Making Your Courier / Delivery Business Appear Larger - Get More Clients

When you are starting, or have a small business, one of the goals is to make it appear bigger.  

While there are many benefits to a prospect working with a small business, there is a certain psychology that brings comfort to a prospect when they do business with larger organizations.

There are many posts on how to make your company look larger. Below are a few excerpts from 100’s of articles on the subject.  (We are discussing the subject because we have had many clients tell us using the DeliveryMark app has given them a larger-company-image when they are pitching prospects.)

* From American Express: Why You Want to Look Bigger

Businesses can can look bigger then they really are, too. It doesn’t require lying (that will come back to bite you anyway). It just requires “puffing the chest” and “tippy toe walking” in the right places, at the right time, in front of the right prospects.

Before I tell you how to do it, you need to know why you may want to do it. As a general rule, prospects have more confidence in bigger companies. At a subconscious level, a larger company automatically indicates that it is a successful company. After all, anyone can start a business by themselves at a snap of their fingers. But growing a company to dozens of employees, or larger, must mean you are doing something right. It creates a subconscious shortcut for your prospects. Bigger translates to a safer choice.

One key way to establish trust and credibility in your industry is to give the appearance that your company is much larger than it is.

* From SalesForce: 6 Ways to Make Your Small Business Look Bigger    https://www.salesforce.com/blog/2017/02/ways-make-small-business-look-bigger.html

… One of the biggest issues a small business faces in the early days is related to its size. When pitching potential customers, those customers want to know that they can trust a brand before committing to it. When that business is working with a small staff, working without a dedicated office, or otherwise operating with limited resources, it can be difficult for prospects to buy in….

So visit Google if you want to find additional posts and information on appearing larger.

The feedback we have gotten from clients it the software gives the impression they have spent a lot of money to have software similar to the kinds that big companies like Fedex and UPS use.

They love being able to hand their phone or device to the person to sign for a delivery and having the time-stamped, date-stamped, longitude/latitude-stamped Electronic Proof of Delivery automatically generated and sent.

And as you know there is so much more functionality…. All for only $7 / month / driver.

There’s no need to tell the prospect how much you’re paying… it’s just between us.
