It\u2019s rife with couriers who just don\u2019t care\u2014delivering products to the wrong address and refusing to take accountability, throwing products over fences, leaving customer orders in areas that they will assuredly be stolen, and more. It\u2019s all very metal. You can really see the impact of poor last-mile delivery service by taking a look at the net promoter score of the delivery industry in the US and Europe.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Net promoter scores range from -100 to 100. For a net promoter score to be considered positive, it needs to fall between <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hubspot.com\/service\/what-is-a-good-net-promoter-score\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">7\u20138 or above<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.

The challenge is to bridge the gap between the corporate office, warehouse managers, customer service specialists, and the couriers fulfilling last-mile delivery functions. To do this, you have to be able to access all of your business communications on one single platform that hosts delivery, fulfillment, and CRM data.
