Returns Management Services

Returns management is the retail process that enables customers to return a purchased product – starting with repackaging from a customer and ending with the seller organizing the collection, organization, and relevant re-stock.

Online marketplaces offer businesses a great opportunity to expand their sales by broadening their customer base. Unfortunately, using a third-party platform can make your returns process more challenging. Returns management can be a complex and time-consuming process and managing returns in-house can apply unnecessary pressure on your workforce. We offer helpful information on managing returns when using a third-party selling website, and identify the advantages of outsourcing your return

Benefits of Outsourcing Returns Management

When a business chooses to outsource their third-party returns, they allow other members of their workforce to spend more time on their designated tasks. By reducing unnecessary workload, businesses offer their employees the opportunity to complete their assigned tasks to the highest standard possible. On the flip side, handling returns internally can often lead to them becoming an afterthought. If your ‘makeshift’ returns team is also responsible for a host of other tasks, the quality of your returns will likely decrease. Outsourcing returns to an external provider such as Tat Services increases the likelihood of customers having a positive return experience, which then increases the likelihood of achieving repeat customers. And more local customers make for a more positive overall image of your brand.

Managing orders and returns requires regular inventory updates. Without the help of an outsourced specialist such as Tat Services, keeping track of stock moving in and out of an inventory can be challenging and may lead to record errors. By lending this responsibility to a third party – businesses are offered both peace of mind that their stock is being managed effectively and assurance that they aren’t losing track of their stock.

When a business outsources its third-party returns, limitations on scalability are removed. When a business starts off small, handling returns through third parties such as Esty or eBay might not be too much hassle. However, as a company grows and acquires more customers across more locations, internal processes might not be enough to accommodate increasing demands. By outsourcing returns management, your business is given peace of mind that even as you grow, your customer experience will not be compromised.
