Challenge
One major benefit of tracking is that it keeps your customer proactively informed about their order. They don’t need to contact you, and you can reduce customer service costs. Given one retailer we work with estimates customer service calls cost £4 apiece, these are some significant potential savings!
But you can forget about it if your customer doesn’t actually understand the tracking updates you provide. Unconsolidated third-party tracking updates are inconsistent, and filled with jargon that simply won’t mean anything to your customers. Each carrier does things very differently. Some may have 50 events and others might have 50,000, each with their own terminology, formats, and processes. As a consumer, the data and different UIs can be incredibly hard to interpret.
If your customer doesn’t understand what’s going on, they’ll call you anyway. Then no one is happy.
