Pricing Most competitive, on average, in the Small to Medium Sized Market Segment ($5k/month and less). Circumstantial Pricing can be obtained from some carriers for larger customers (minimum of $7.5k/month in revenue to carrier).

Basic Info Required for Pricing Standard Components of Rating a Shipment: Origin Zip Code Destination Zip Code Class of Freight Shipment Weight Dimensions of Packaging Number of Handling Units

Shipment Documentation Bill of Lading (BOL): Determines how shipment is handled, rated, & invoiced to customer. Accompanies shipment during transit. Accuracy of content is critical. Customer must always use a INXPRESS generated BOL. If not, they will be charged directly by the carrier.

Setting-up Customer Rates You determine the customer’s discounts and input them at http://my.inxpressmanager.com. Always ask them who they ship with and what their discounts are…they will tell you. Always ask customer for invoices!

Pickup & Delivery Customer inputs shipment information at www.inxpressmanager.com. Customer selects which carrier he/she would like to ship with. Customer calls carrier and schedules pick-up. Customer prints BOL or faxes, or emails the BOL to the shipments origin location.

Key to Success Don’t worry about being a freight expert…it will happen. Contact corporate office with questions. Find the business Always ask for invoices and always ask about customer’s discounts. Demo website on the spot to customers. Always ask for the business.
