Matson Express fast shipping has unique advantages in terms of operation efficiency and cost. Mason's ships operate independently and ship transfer is a command center the final say. The docks in the United States are easy to contact with ships. Because ships depend on the weather、 there are many uncertain factors、 and many things need to be decided and responded in time. The ships from the terminal to Meisen need to contact Meisen and do not need to coordinate with other shipping companies. Moreover、 Midea ships are all owned ships、 and the crew members are all American employees of Meisen Company、 so communication is very simple. Customers of Meisen also feel it is very convenient to get on Meisen's boat、 use Meisen's boxes、 unload them at Meisen's dock、 and use Meisen's free chassis cars (other companies charge fees). It is very convenient.

6. Unique

As far as the specific route is concerned、 the possibility of duplication of Matson Express fast shipping route is very low. Hawaiian and Guam routes are domestic routes of the United States、 and other foreign ships cannot receive cargo there. But what can be copied is regression value. This is something everyone can do and the shipping company must do. Customers vary widely. Sometimes customers don't know what they need. Before you present a specific product to him、 he is not very clear. The shipping company is required to have a sharp vision and unique insight、 see the future needs and pain points of customers、 that is、 the pent up needs now、 and provide the services that customers need.

This is because the financial performance and income level of the ship's westward travel are very high、 which ensures that the Meisen line will not be delayed.

1. The market demand of products should be large

This is the basic principle. Long tail products are not suitable for overseas warehouses、 because it will affect the conversion rate and produce life and death inventory. However、 the size of the market is reasonable、 and the seller needs to evaluate according to the capital situation and turnover rate.

2. Focus on the total profit per unit time rather than the profit of a single transaction

In general、 the profit margin of overseas warehouse of most products will be much higher than that of domestic shipment、 which is also the advantage of overseas warehouse.

Is it true that the profits of overseas warehouses are not as good as those of products shipped domestically、 so they must not be overseas warehouses? In fact、 it is not because we also need to comprehensively consider the conversion rate of overseas warehouse、 because products with high conversion rate can also achieve higher total profits through overseas warehouse!

This requires our sellers to look at overseas warehouses from a developmental and overall perspective.

For example、 if the profit margin of a product shipped from China is 20% and that of an overseas warehouse is 10%、 but the conversion rate of an overseas warehouse is 6 times that of a Chinese shipment、 the total profit obtained in the same time period is 3 times that of a Chinese shipment. Therefore、 we should not only look at the profit rate、 but also calculate the overall cost and benefit.
