Business owners rely on their employees to help power companies to achieve goals and milestones. No moving company can be an industry leader without a top-notch team ready to take on any challenge, generate ideas, and excel in their roles. Great leaders give their teams the opportunity to be successful by investing in the tools that increase productivity. A productive workforce creates an environment that allows owners and employees to passionately pursue (and achieve) company goals.

The moving industry is all about being efficient, to get the most out of a team they must have a top flight moving software that removes tedious and repetitive tasks. Logistics is built to make moving companies more profitable and empower teams to operate at the next level.

Imagine what could happen to your moving business by implementing the right tools?

1. Lead Capture: the lifeblood of any moving business is generating and closing leads. Movegisitcs has easy-to-use lead capture forms that seamlessly integrate to the front end of any site. When a prospective customer fills out the information in the form it automatically flows to the lead dashboard – which is rich with relevant information. Instead of wasting time organizing leads, employees can spend time closing deals and more importantly, searching for the next one!
2. Bill of Lading Application: With lead generation streamlined, how can we help the crew actually on the job? Rather than recording every line item by hand (good luck deciphering that) and getting dirt-stained inventory sheets; have your crew use the Movegistics Bill of Lading application. One tablet can power every aspect of the move for the crew. From keeping track of time, accounting for breaks, tracking items, special situation and notes, unexpected changes, and more the BoL application lets any crew member easily quarterback the entire job from start to finish – even get a customer referral and satisfaction rating. Once submitted, all the information flows directly to the customer’s profile. Office employees can process invoicing before the crew even returns from the job. Improve your revenue cycle and customer experience while saving hours and making crews significantly more efficient.
3. Scheduling and Dispatching: At its core a moving company is a logistics business. The Owner’s goal is to maximize the amount the company can do with a their crew and a given amount of truck space. With the Movegistics scheduling feature, owners and dispatchers can create crews, assign individuals for jobs, assign trucks to locations, use integrated GPS to uncover efficient routes, and more. Manually keeping track of the schedule is a near impossible task in practice, especially when there is a wrinkle in the plan (Hint: there always is). Inevitably employees get sick or have emergencies. If the dispatcher can’t quickly adjust that means lost profits! Many moving businesses are seasonal and can’t afford to have an entire day destroyed by an unforeseen event. Protect hard earned jobs and save man hours through efficient scheduling.

In moving the margin for error is tight and the need to maximize the return on investment for variable costs (employees) is crucial. However, owners must give teams a chance to succeed. Implementing a full suite of moving company CRM tools is a must. Furthermore, teams should take the time to master powerful programs like Movegistics saving thousands of dollars per truck every year.
