Ship Smarter, Not Harder: The Not-So Hidden Shipping Savings You Might Be Missing
As a small business, you rely on shipping to get customer orders out the door and bring in the supplies you need to operate. But between surprise surcharges, fuel costs, and unpredictable fees, it's easy to feel like your shipping spend is spiraling out of control.
Here's the good news: Small businesses don't have to be stuck paying retail rates just because they don't ship in high volumes. Like everything in a chamber of commerce, there's strength (and savings!) in numbers.
With SOCA's shipping benefit programs, member businesses can unlock exclusive shipping discounts and solutions that are typically reserved for larger companies.
Here's how you can start shipping smarter--not harder:
FedEx Discounts for Chamber Businesses
Through SOCA, chamber businesses have access to exclusive FedEx Advantage Discounts, including:
- 45% off on FedEx Express shipping
- 45% off on FedEx Express international shipping
- 25% off on FedEx Ground shipping
- 25% off on FedEx Home Delivery
Enrollment is Easy and Risk-Free:
- If you currently ship with FedEx, these discounts will be added to your account and then automatically applied to your shipments once you enroll.
- If you don't have a FedEx account, you can open one when you enroll.
After you sign up, FedEx will analyze the pricing on your account. If your current discounts are better than the FedEx Advantage rates, you'll stay on that pricing. There's no risk to seeing what you could save!
