Successful Sales Made Easy:
How To Prevent Common Project Issues
Get ahead of common order challenges before they happen by following these simple tips.
From avoiding shipping delays to eliminating extra fees, we explain how easy it is to ensure every order goes off without a hitch.
Project Issue: Overpriced shipping and delivery.
Solution: Order from a supplier with multiple warehouse locations and a large distribution network.
One of the most common causes of expensive shipping is products needing to be transported across far distances. These freight charges can quickly add up, especially if the products are heavy. To avoid this, ask your supplier about where products will be shipped from and how they’ll be transported to cut down on travel distance and ensure reasonable pricing.
The Alexa Springs Advantage
With seven warehouse locations across the country and an impressive distribution network, Alexa Springs, Inc. (asi/34037) can strategically source your order from the closest possible location to the destination to keep freight charges as low as possible.
Project Issue: Product inconsistencies.
Solution: Pick a supplier with consistent production methods, regardless of manufacturing location.
When it comes to branding, consistency is key. However, if products are produced at different manufacturing facilities, you may encounter discrepancies in size, shape, colors, quality and more. Prevent this from happening by making sure your supplier owns all of their manufacturing facilities and that they all adhere to the same practices and production standards, so there won’t ever be any inconsistencies in the finished products.
The Alexa Springs Advantage
Alexa Springs, Inc. not only owns and operates each step of their production process, they also source all of their water from the same natural springs and put water through a rigorous filtration and testing process to ensure consistency in taste, bottling, labeling and beyond.
Project Issue: Unexpected extra fees.
Solution: Ensure your supplier has transparent pricing and won’t outsource any steps of your project.
No one likes being surprised with extra fees – especially not your clients. Explaining to clients why their projects are more expensive than anticipated is an easy way to lose their business for the future. Avoid being put in this position by working with a supplier who offers clear pricing from the start, with no hidden fees or unexpected extra charges added down the line.

With no setup fees and a streamlined vertical integration that eliminates extra cost increases from third party vendors, Alexa Springs, Inc. offers clear, consistent pricing so you and your clients can order confidently.
Project Issue: Lack of project accountability.
Solution: Ask your supplier how they handle concerns or potential issues.
Should something go wrong with your client’s order, you’re the one left having to make it right – even if it was caused by something completely out of your control. Make sure you’re covered in the event of an accident or mistake by asking your supplier how they troubleshoot issues or resolve client concerns.
