Why we featured: Ware-Pak There are lots of distribution companies serving book publishers. Ware-Pak is one of the few that has successfully embraced the use of modern technology to better service their clients and their clients' customers. Since 1963 they have dedicated themselves to serving the publishing industry. Note: We always recommend that our clients evaluate several vendors and check references before making any purchasing decision. When selecting a fulfillment house we "strongly" recommend that you make an on-site visit to each candidate's operation to evaluate their operation. Fulfillment Service Tip: Have a look at the orders that their customer service staff are processing. If orders are more than a day old you might want to look elsewhere. Fulfillment Service Tip: Check the financial stability of your proposed fulfillment house. How long have they been around? What is their D&B rating? Have they been profitable for the last few years? Have they been investing in new equipment? Is their warehouse 3/4 empty or 3/4 full? Is their client list growing? |
