Transformational Digitization - Julian (Logixboard)

04/28/22 • 40 min

"Our industry isn't going to change. People are never going to log into online systems. They will always want to deal directly with people!".
We've observed a colossal amount of change over the last 24 months. COVID has completely changed how we all work, interact and go about our business. Alongside the chaos stands technology providers like Logixboard, who offer solutions for the modern, contactless, digital, customer-centric, and online era. In an informative and engaging discussion with Co-Founder Julian Alvarez, we hear about:
- Julian's journey from seeing a distinct need 6 years ago to now
- The discovery of supply-chain operating systems without customer-facing solutions
- How ongoing technological shifts, are being driven by shipper demand
- Why Teams and a 'People First' culture is critical to Logixboard's success
If you're associated with a small-to-medium freight forwarder, you'll hear practical insights that will transform your business operations and help you win new customers. And if you're a supply-chain enthusiast you'll hear how modern systems can tangibly change how cargo moves across the world!

Part II: Shipz.com

In this follow up to our previous episode, Jonathan and Sarah chat all things shipz.com! We learn about the platforms' origins, how it will serve the shipping industry, and the transformational impact Shipz has on the experience of Shippers and Service Providers. We explore features like tracking and booking, and discuss why accurate maths and data normalisation are critically important to the shipment process.
If you're a Shipper (importer, exporter, eCommerce seller, or BCO) head over to shipz.com and create your account: You can start for free, track your first five shipments for free, and request quotes from a whole range of Verified Service Providers for free, too. There's no monthly lock in: You only pay once a booking is confirmed.
If you're a Service Provider (freight forwarder, 3PL, or NVOCC) create your free account, then step through our Verified Provider process so you can quote and receive payments for bookings. Again, no monthly lock in: You only pay once a booking is confirmed.
We are excited for the launch of shipz.com, and we hope you are too!
