Software Solutions for Mailer and Courier Bag Sellers

Mailers are bought by online sellers who ship hundreds of parcels a week. They order by size and thickness, buy by pack of a hundred or five hundred and reorder when stock runs low. Printed brand mailers add artwork and larger minimums. Fast repeat orders matter more than anything else.

At a glance

Sell poly and padded mailers to online sellers who reorder by size and pack.

A seller of phone cases needs a mailer a certain size so the parcel fits a courier’s slab. If the size is wrong, shipping costs more on every order.

Because the buyer shops again within weeks, reordering has to take seconds.

How an order moves

The workflow for mailers.

  1. 1

    Choosing a size

    The buyer selects a mailer size from the dimensions of the parcel, and sees how many fit a pack.

  2. 2

    Selecting material and strength

    Thickness in microns, padding and seal type are chosen, with notes on what each suits.

  3. 3

    Ordering a pack

    Mailers are bought in packs of a hundred or more, with price breaks for cartons.

  4. 4

    Adding a brand print

    Where a logo is wanted, artwork is uploaded and a quote and minimum quantity are given.

  5. 5

    Reordering

    A repeat buyer reopens the last order, adjusts counts and pays.

Where it breaks

The challenges, and what they cost.

Sizes confuse buyers

Inside and outside sizes are mixed up, and bags arrive too small.

Stock-outs hit repeat buyers

A common size sells out and the seller cannot post parcels.

Printed orders are slow to quote

A logo run needs a quote each time, even for a repeat.

India and international

Selling at home and abroad.

Sellers shipping abroad choose mailers by what carriers accept and what customs expects. Material claims, such as recycled or compostable content, are made only where you hold the supplier’s evidence.
