Before the advent of online shopping, retail fulfillment consisted mainly of large pallets of material being shipped to stores that would place it on their shelves for customers. The Internet has dramatically altered the way this is done for many businesses, as online retailers are typically filling and shipping small orders, sometimes just one item. While this form of business is old news for mail order companies, larger brick and mortar firms are having to adjust. This has led to the creation of several online fulfillment companies to meet the needs of these retailers.

The Key to Flourishing Fulfillment: Excellent Customer Service
Most sophisticated customers know what a vital role customer service plays in the success of a company. People will take their business to the firm that offers them to best service, which is why it is key that a fulfillment firm offer outstanding service.

One of the worst things that can happen is that a customer purchases an item and is then latter told that it is not available. This is why the most successful online retailers have an automated system that includes a real-time inventory control and accounting system. These retails also use e-mail to keep their customers aware of the status of their order.
