It's funny you say that because some of the largest distributors in the world are basically what we have + a 3PL facility attached to it. Our hope is to partner with distributors who do the physical stuff and provide better software, which so far is working pretty well. We would be really out of our depth on the physical side of things at this point. Shopify just waded into their own 3PLs though which is interesting. Shipbob also does this quite well.
- hef19898 7y agoWasn't aware of the Shopify thing. I'm currently venturing into the physical things, which is one of few things actually good at anyway. So maybe we can have a chat one day? I'm based in Germany, so probably no immediate synergies, but I could imagine that customers might be interested in a combined solution of your tech and an carrier-independant party running daily operations.
- rogerkirkness 7y agoTotally, roger@convictional.com if you want to continue the conversation.
- theturtletalks 7y agoYep it seems like Deliverr and Shopify are trying to pry sellers away from Amazon FBA. I'm actually working on an open-source fulfillment system for Shopify where users can source their inventory from ShipBob, Deliverr, any custom 3PL: https://github.com/openshiporg/openship https://github.com/openshiporg/openship Could we integrate with Convictional?
- rogerkirkness 7y agoYes: https://docs.convictional.com/ https://docs.convictional.com/ although it's worth a conversation to figure out the easiest approach. roger@convictional.com
