"We tried to deliver your parcel, but nobody was home" 😞 For customers, failed deliveries are inconvenient because they mean rearranging a new delivery slot or a trip to the local post office. But for the company managing the delivery, they eat into profits. With every missed delivery costing around $17, reducing the percentage of deliveries that don't make it to their intended destination on the first try is key for courier and postal companies. So how can they do this? Automated delivery notifications go some way to plugging the holes, but oftentimes these messages are limited, missing context and not giving customers a simple way to act or respond. This results in, you guessed it, a missed delivery. By embracing newer channels that promote two-way messaging and real-time tracking though, providers can give customers better live visibility on the status of their delivery and options on what happens next. Our most recent blog posts explores some of these channels and how they're shaping delivery notifications for logistics providers in 2026. 🔗 Link in the comments #DeliveryNotifications #AutomatedCommunications
