Becoming successful in your self employed courier job business takes an intelligent, technology-intensive approach to resolving problems and accomplishing tasks. There are ways of doing things, and there are 'better' ways of doing things. There are aspects of the business that you must take a hard look at, match them with what you can offer, and work around your own limitations in order to exceed your customers' expectations. The following are the most fundamental pointers from which you can take the first step toward your business goals.
Working Smarter
Even at the get-go, it is important to recognise the shining wisdom of working smart, not hard. Imagine someone who has a self employed courier job, happy to have a trickle of customers every week. Now imagine further that, by some stroke of luck, the trickle becomes a huge wave - our subject could not handle the new customers without working very late into the night and basically breaking his back just to meet new demands. Working smartly, in this context, is finding ways to automate tasks and using new, affordable technologies to make your work and life easier. Fortunately, it only takes an open mind to do so: in these modern, information-dependent times, streamlining your workplace and enhancing the efficiency of your operations may only take the adoption of certain software or a new device. For instance, instead of picking up the phone and actually calling to check if the consignment has arrived, you can establish an automated tracking system that provides such vital information at a glance.
