SCOTTSDALE, AZ--(Marketwired - August 12, 2015) - TrueShip (http://www.trueship.com) -- the leading provider of automated returns management solutions (ReadyReturns) -- has just released a new white paper that examines the effectiveness of offering convenient, automated online returns, and the impact such an amenity has on customer spending and loyalty.
With reports showing that over 30% of all products ordered online are being returned by consumers, it’s no mystery why many retailers have feared offering hassle-free returns like the larger online stores do. But the reality is that a returns policy goes hand-in-hand with stronger sales and improved consumer confidence, which leads to healthier retention and long term loyalty.
In TrueShip’s newest white paper, several studies are examined that purport that hassle-free returns actually can improve online sales and benefit the bottom line of any retailer that offers them.
The white paper covers these following elements:
- The changing horizon of ecommerce.
- Studies show that complimentary returns increase sales and profits.
- Consumers are more loyal to online stores that make returns easy.
- Retailers are learning that most return are actually their fault.
- Infographic: Top ten product return statistics.
- Why most shoppers won’t shop at stores that don’t make returns simple.
- How automation eases the burden of labor associated with the returns process.
- Infographic: Returns management and why it matters.
“Automation is quickly becoming the wave of the future for everything ecommerce,” explained Michael Lazar, Director of Online Marketing at TrueShip. “Consumers have made it clear that they want online shopping to be easier and more convenient than the brick and mortar experience. For retailers that wisely appeal to this mindset, they enjoy a steady stream of strong sales from customers, who ultimately become loyalists and brand ambassadors.”
