“With so much tech and so many solutions, understanding how to use them and how they can work for your business in the context of the ever-changing environment can be time-consuming.

SmartConsign is a proud sponsor of Linn Academy 2019. One of the fastest delivery management system in the market today: SmartConsign can import and generate 1000 labels in just 45 seconds.

With so many systems and integrations, the shipping logistics business can get complicated. Factoring in all the customer facing challenges – such as last mile delivery and  free shipping and returns –  getting all the data you need to keep your operation running cost effectively and efficiently is no mean task. For that reason, getting the right systems integrations is therefore not a hard sell, we all appreciate the need for simplifying the process. Here at  SmartConsign that is what everything must be about: simplification and efficiency. From the start,  we’ve been on a mission to help streamline the parcel delivery process.

Designing our own software from the ground up gave us the best possible start. It meant that we were able to introduce features that others have not even thought about or were simply unable to build due to the constraints of their own systems. Solutions like universal label formats take the hassle out of printing different label sizes for each carrier – these small things add up to a massive difference in speed, efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Our fast consignment generation and label creation enable businesses to respond quickly to ever-growing customer demands [both solutions executed 100 in less than 3.5 seconds].

SmartConsign integration with Linnworks is an example of how through partnerships we’re able to help businesses grow to their full potential by helping to make the process easier. Our existing account holders can use their accounts and associated integrations from within the Linnworks platform.

Here is how it works:

• Linnworks communicates directly with your SmartConsign account allowing the 2 systems to work together as one seamless platform.
• Linnworks allows the shipping label to be inserted directly on your invoice where a peel off label can be used.
• Cancelling a label within Linnworks prior to manifesting will automatically cancel the label, ensuring you are not charged for labels that you do not use

Running a business can be challenging enough without having to waste time with manual processes and managing multiple systems. With SmartConsign you can also easily access shipping quotes, compare prices and track performance over time. If you’re an existing SmartConsign client and you’re looking to automate all the different parts of your selling processes you can find us on Linnworks. Not a customer yet? Book a demo today.

SmartConsign is a delivery management software that  brings together retailers, distribution warehouses, resellers and carriers to simplify the entire shipping process and provide seamless carriage management.

The Linn Academy for years has been an inspiring & innovating place for online sellers to share stories & build their brand.  This year SmartConsign had a front row seat as a Silver Sponsor which gave us a chance to interact with online retailers & look for ways to strengthen & promote our SmartConsign for Linnworks integration.

For those of you who are not familiar with The SmartConsign for Linnworks shipping integration it allows existing SmartConsign account holders to utilise their carrier accounts and associated integrations directly from Linnworks.

Integration Features.

The event had some fantastic Keynote Speakers with  Callum Campbell, CEO and Fedor Dzjuba, CTO from Linnworks leading the way on the Main Stage. We didn’t get a chance to listen to Deborah Meadens Celebrity Keynote. However, we did get an opportunity to hang out BBC’s ‘Office’ character lookalikes, ‘David Brent’ and assistant ‘Gareth’ who were great at drawing in the crowds to our stand.

In regard to attendance, even though Linn Academy was not as large compared to other events, it had an outstanding array of small and large online retailers eager to discover a way to future proof their shipping and logistics processes. So, if you are looking for a place to share some ideas and engage with a community of new sellers, LA2019 is a great place to start.  Alternatively, you can could also come down and see us at eCommerce Show North event to be held on 6th and 7th November 2018 at Event City Manchester. eCSN.  it’s a major event that attracts several eCommerce companies, vendors and suppliers!
