Promoting newsagents as parcel pickup points

Newsagents will be promoted as parcel collection points to online retailers at the Online Retailer conference and trade exhibition in Sydney next week by Parcel Point, the parcel pick up service company hundreds of newsagents have already signed with.

Promoting Parcel Point at the Online Retailer conference is the next step in the process of building awareness of this network and another step in driving awareness of newsagents as being relevant to the bourgeoning online retail world.

Parcel Point is a pure commercial venture being run on commercial principles. That is – for online retailers, logistics businesses and newsagent parcel pick up outlets all to profit.

Since Parcel Point was launched in May this year, hundreds of newsagents have signed up. It’s free and easy to get started. The obligations are simple. I put up a Q&A if you have questions. I encourage more newsagents to get on board to create a parcel pick up service which is compelling to online retailers and logistics businesses.
