Small farms offering dairy delivery often run into a problem. As more and more people want to ensure they are giving their families the very best milk and dairy products, many dairy farms have a hard time keeping up with demand. This is especially true when they offer something as convenient as fresh milk delivery. 

That’s where we come in! Delivery Biz Pro provides stellar dairy delivery software that helps small farms keep up with the logistics of selling dairy products online, ensuring timely and fresh delivery, and keeping track of milk bottles or coolers. 

Dairy Management Software Helps You…

Make accurate deliveries on time. 

In the world of convenient dairy delivery, you need to ensure you are giving your customers exactly what they ordered. Our software automatically generates delivery routes and allows drivers to see exactly what needs to be included in each drop-off. 

Give customers control of their accounts. 

Customers should never feel as if they are in the dark about your service. Our dairy delivery software allows customers to view their order history, set vacation dates to pause deliveries, add or remove items from their order at the last minute, update their secure payment options, receive alerts about scheduled deliveries, and so much more. 

Keep track of bottle and cooler deposits. 

The milk and dairy delivery industry has unique requirements, which is why you can’t just use any old home delivery software to run your business. One of these unique features is deposits for glass milk bottles or porch coolers where deliveries can be dropped off. With our software, you can see who has outstanding bottles or coolers and make arrangements to have those returned when needed. 

Manage your inventory. 

The last thing you want is to sell more of a product than you have available. With our dairy management solution, you can create “out of stock” alerts that will not allow customers to add an item to their cart if there is not enough inventory to meet demand. 

Offer discounts and suggest products. 

One of the best ways to keep customers is by offering them a special discount. With the Delivery Biz Pro software, you can text or email promotions and discount codes directly to customers. These can include discounts for abandoned carts, birthdays, holidays, and other events. At the same time, our software makes it easy to “suggest” related items to customers to encourage larger checkouts. If they order butter from your website, perhaps they also want to order a loaf of freshly baked bread. We make it easy to show them related items for purchase. 

Try Our Dairy Delivery Software Today

Small farms can easily compete with the “big guys” when they have the right technology powering their brand. Delivery Biz Pro makes it easy for dairy owners to provide their customers with the absolute best service with customizable, user-friendly dairy software.

We are often asked, “Will your delivery management software work for my business?” In many cases, the answer is yes, simply because we offer so many customizable features and admin tools that empower you to get what you need out of the software. 

That said, one of the biggest industries we serve is the fresh meat and dairy delivery industry which is growing every day. Customers want to know where their meat is coming from. They want to know that the milk they give their children is as pure as possible. Companies like Eketahuna Country Meats makes it easy. 

Optimizing Business With Our Meat & Dairy Software

Eketahuna Country Meats is a meat and dairy delivery business in New Zealand. They began eight years ago as a family with three young children. Like many people, they wanted to feed their children a diet that is high in quality and as low in processed foods as possible. So, they started producing their own meat. Then, they started offering their products to other families and their business continued to grow. 

They specialize in sustainably raised beef, lamb, and pork products along with fresh milk in glass bottles that are delivered right to the doors of their customers. Their products are entirely free of hormones, antibiotics, and GMOs. Because the company was founded by parents of young children, they pull on the heartstrings of other families looking to feed their children the best products possible. 

Meat And Dairy Management Software Helps Keep Things Fresh

Steve Olds, the founder of Eketahuna Country Meats, says they have benefited greatly from partnering with Delivery Biz Pro. He says, “We have been able to expand product volume while improving speed and range of delivery. For perishable items like fresh meat and milk, it’s critical to reach our customers in a timely, accurate fashion and DBP has simplified the process dramatically.”

With the Delivery Biz Pro dairy management software, Eketahuna Country Farms has a beautifully designed website that shows their customers exactly what they can offer them. The meat and dairy software makes it easy to run their business and automatically generates delivery driver routes, sends updates to customers on their orders, and much more

While Eketahuna Country Farms originally sold products only from their own 300-acre farm, they now partner with other local farmers. Not only does this bring those small, sustainable farmers business, but it also expands the types and quantities of products they can offer their customers.

Delivery Biz Pro is designed to make your home delivery service run smoothly, and we love sharing our clients’ success stories. Today, we’ll be sharing the success of South Mountain Creamery, a milk delivery service based in Middletown, Maryland. 

A Special Client For Delivery Biz Pro

We are proud to say that South Mountain Creamery (SMC) was Delivery Biz Pro’s second client ever and have been using our home delivery software for eleven years. They truly represent what our mission is here at DBP, which is to help small delivery businesses thrive. 

From Spreadsheets To Customizable Software

SMC was founded in 2001 with a goal to “bring back the milkman” by providing local residents with glass milk bottle delivery. When they began their journey, they were relying on a manually updated Excel spreadsheet to track orders and manage deliveries. Now, with our dairy management software, their business runs smoothly, delivering farm-fresh milk, butter, yogurt, and ice cream to residents in a 70-mile radius. 

As they have found success, SMC has added additional products from other local farmers. They now give their customers the option to add fresh eggs, meat, bread, and produce to their orders. Everything is locally sourced, yet customers have the ease of using only one website to place and manage their delivery orders. 

The Bread And Butter Of A Successful Business

A good dairy management software can help a business deliver the goods, but the real driving force behind South Mountain Creamery’s success is rooted deep within their business model. SMC says it best on their website

“Our cows are milked 50 yards away from our production plant. Within 12 hours, the milk is bottled or made into yogurt, cream, butter, sour cream, or ice cream. The incredible flavor and the nutritional value of our dairy products can be attributed to the freshness of the milk and the comfort of our cows. Products like yogurt and ice cream are hand-crafted, recipes of our own making and made fresh for you.”

Customers are welcome to visit their dairy farm any time to see how the magic happens. There, they will find happy cows grazing opening in the pasture. In addition to grass, the cows are fed crops that SMC grows themselves. The owners of South Mountain Creamery, along with the 75 men and women they employ, are perfect examples of how an amazing product combined with an intuitive delivery management software and paired with excellent customer service can help a local farm thrive. 

Optimize Your Dairy Delivery Business

All over the world, people are going back to home milk deliveries. Not only for the convenience, but also so that they can know where their milk and other farm products are coming from. It feels good to support the local economy, and it feels even better to know the path that your dairy has taken from the cow to the finished product. 

If you own a local dairy or farm and want to break into the delivery business like South Mountain Creamery, reach out to Delivery Biz Pro. Our dairy delivery software is designed to meet the needs of your business whether you simply sell milk or you provide as many local products as SMC does.

Are you giving your customers what they need?

Let’s take a closer look at that question. Say that you offer farm fresh dairy deliveries to the city of Boston. A customer decides that they no longer enjoy cheap, over-processed milk from the store so they hop on Google and type in “milk delivery service in Boston” and find your website. On the surface, it might look like you have met their need. After all, they needed local dairy delivery and you can provide that.

Fresh milk in their fridge is the product that they need — but what do they need from your actual service? In today’s blog, Delivery Biz Pro is taking some time to look more closely at this concept to help you ensure your service is meeting your customers’ needs. Keep reading to learn more, or get in touch with us to discuss how our delivery management software can meet all of the below requirements.

An Easy-To-Use Website

Nothing is more frustrating for a customer than a confusing, outdated, or slow website. Imagine if a customer was standing in front of you with cash in hand. They hold out the cash to give it to you, waving it in your face, and you just stand there and stare blankly while they try to shove it into your hand or your shirt pocket. Now imagine that same scenario, but instead of staring blankly, you reach out and shake their hand, let them know what products you will provide for the money they are giving you, collect their money, write them a receipt, and double check that the order is right.

When a customer is trying to sign up for your delivery service, the last thing you want them to see is an unresponsive website. Ensuring that your website is modern, fast, secure, and easy-to-use will make more customers willing to use your service.

Customizable Options

In this day and age, your customers have a wealth of options to choose from when they are looking for a service, whether it is a daily dairy delivery or a monthly propane drop-off. The more options you can provide for your customers, the more likely it is that they’ll use your service over your competitor’s.

When you use a delivery management software like ours, you can give your customers as much or as little control over their orders as you want. They can control their order timeline, for example, and decide what day to receive deliveries on and how often. They can set recurring deliveries and add special one-time items. They can order months in advance or skip their next delivery, and so much more. With a good delivery software, your customers can have complete control over their orders without making your job or your drivers’ jobs any more difficult.

Organization

Organization is a key component of any delivery service. If your end of the business is not organized, it will show on your customer’s end in the form of late, missed, or inaccurate deliveries, overcharges, or unaccounted deposits when they have in fact turned in their items. This can be incredibly frustrating for a customer.

When your delivery management software is tailored for your specific industry and does the hard work for you, the organization factor naturally follows.

At Delivery Biz Pro, we focus on a few main delivery industries including dairy, water, produce, meal kits, and propane. Many of these industries, especially dairy, water, and propane, include a facet that many delivery softwares are not equipped to handle: bottle, jug, or tank deposits. Customers will quickly feel taken advantage of if they return a deposit yet are charged for a new one or their account lists deposits as outstanding. With our software, drivers can quickly check off who has returned deposits and who hasn’t as they make the deliveries so there is never any confusion.

On-Time And Accurate Deliveries

Customers want their deliveries to be made on the day they have chosen and they want them to be accurate. That way there is never any hassle and they can continue using your services without any frustration. Our software does all of the difficult work for you by automatically generating order and load sheets and driver routes so your team knows exactly what needs to go in each box and each truck. It also empowers your drivers to find the fastest and most efficient routes, text customers when deliveries have been made, make changes on the road, and more.

Late Cut-Off Time

The later you can make your cut-off time, the better it is for your customers who need to make last-minute changes to their orders. To have a late cut-off time, you need to have a delivery management software that takes all of the guesswork out of driver routing and order management. Ours does just that, allowing you to decide the best cut-off time for your business.

Give More To Your Customers With Delivery Biz Pro!

Your customers deserve the very best. If your business can’t meet the above needs, then it might be time to explore better software options that can make it happen. With Delivery Biz Pro, we can help you optimize your business from top to bottom by automating the processes above and more.

Learn more about implementing our delivery management software into your business model by filling out our short application. Taking just a minute to give us some insight into your business is the first step toward giving your customers exactly what they need: a highly efficient, customizable delivery service that makes their lives easier.

Home milk delivery has been an available service for much, much longer than there has been dairy software to help manage it — truthfully, we’re not sure how local milkmen got from Point A to Point B in the 18th century, but we’re glad they did. As we’re sure you know, milk home delivery services took a major hit in the mid-1900s when grocery stores were able to incorporate refrigeration systems and ice boxes in-store, allowing them to store and sell milk in cheaply plastic jugs. Though, milk delivery and small-dairy milk sourcing have become more and more popular for families wanting to know where their milk comes from and those who are concerned about animal welfare at large dairies. This is good news for local dairy producers, however, there is still some work to be done.

While word of mouth may have been sufficient enough marketing for dairy farmers in the 17- and 1800s, these days consumers want something more efficient and reliable. If your customers cannot easily navigate your website, schedule deliveries, and pay online, they are likely to move on to the next local dairy’s website where they can do that. Once you get their business, it is imperative that accurate deliveries are made on time and that their returned bottles are accounted for and credited to their account. That’s where Delivery Biz Pro (DBP) comes in.

Game-Changing Dairy Business Software

When you choose DBP as your dairy software, you get so much more than just a software; you get a customized experience. Delivery Biz Pro’s services include a beautifully designed customer marketplace that easily allows customers to edit orders, add recurring items to their cart, and pay online over a secure server.

On this marketplace, you can offer promotional sales, send automatic order confirmations via email, automatically text customers when their order has been dropped off, send out birthday discounts, and so much more. With a suite of admin tools, you have complete control over how your website is run. Do you want items to disappear from the site or have an “out of stock” label when the available inventory is spoken for? Do you want customers to see related items when they add a specific product to their cart? All of this can be easily done through the backend of the website in order to give your dairy business an edge over the competition.

Dairy Management Software

So, what makes DBP different than other dairy delivery software solutions out there? For starters, we pride ourselves on having the most customizable and easiest to use software available. If you’re paying for a software, you shouldn’t have to also pay for someone to interpret a bunch of confusing data and troubleshoot problems. That’s what we’re for! Our in-house team of IT professionals takes care of security and server updates for you, and your data is housed on its own dedicated server (meaning no one else will slow your site down) and is backed up twice daily. We want you to be able to forget about the technical side of things and focus on providing an excellent product knowing your data is safe and recoverable if something were to happen.

Drop-Offs Are Easy With Our Dairy Delivery Software

Our software is designed to make things easy for your customers, but don’t worry, we didn’t forget about your team. As a home delivery software, it is our goal to ensure that your drivers are empowered on the road and that routing is done in a way that makes sense for your business.

Automatic routing can happen in multiple ways based on the needs of your business, drivers, and customers. With the click of a button, you can automatically assign customers to routes, create new routes by drawing circles on a map, and assign customers to multiple routes if needed. You can even break up routes by day of the week if you’re sending out daily deliveries.

Drivers can use our touch-screen tablets to collect signatures, mark bottle returns, edit orders, and take payments on the road. Drivers can also change the routes using a drag and drop feature if they need to avoid construction or change the delivery routes based on physical distance between drop-offs or driving time.

We Are Your Full-Service Home Delivery Software

At the end of the day, it is our goal to provide a stellar software option for local dairy farms and milk delivery businesses. We are continually updating our software to meet your needs, so if you think we’re missing something, just tell us! We love feedback, and it’s what helps us continue to be the best dairy delivery software on the market. Check out this kind review left by the owner of Farm To Home Milk in Asheville, North Carolina who has been seeing success with DBP:

“Delivery Biz Pro is a phenomenal service. I feel like they always have my back. My site is easy to use, the autoresponders are fantastic and customers report nothing but happiness with the site. The backend of the site gives me visibility into where my company is going day to day. I wouldn’t know how to run this business without the amazing software at Delivery Biz PRO.” – Jonathan Flaum

Jonathan perfectly captures both sides of our software: The customer side and the administrative side. We don’t want your customers to ever wonder if their order went through or if the product they just put in their cart is actually going to make it to their doorstep. At the same time, we want you to know where your business stands in terms of sales and deliveries. Through years and years of developing this software, we have found the perfect melody of customizable administrative tools and a beautifully designed customer marketplace that allows you to have control over your business without worrying about security and data management because we do that part for you.

Try Delivery Biz Pro For Yourself

If you think our delivery software is right for you, take twenty seconds and apply to use it. You’ll notice we didn’t say “buy it.” We like to think of our process as more of an application. At the end of the day, we don’t want you to spend money on a delivery software that won’t work for your business — though, if you are in the home delivery industry centered around recurring deliveries of dairy, groceries, propane, water, or something similar, then we have a feeling a beautiful partnership is about to bloom! Let us know a good time to hop on the phone and allow us to earn your business as your dedicated dairy management and delivery software.
