Ships A Lot

Quick question for any brand owner reading this: When was the last time your 3PL account manager actually called you?

Not emailed. Not opened a ticket. Called.

If your answer is "I'm not sure" or "they left six months ago and nobody replaced them," that's not bad luck. That's the model.

Most 3PLs are built to scale support, not to deliver it. A real person at onboarding, a shared queue after launch, an account manager who quietly vanishes around month four.

Every Ships A Lot client gets a real account manager. A human who picks up the phone, knows your business, and doesn't disappear after the first invoice.

Most 3PLs are built by people who've never actually owned a brand.

They're optimized for the warehouse. Trained on parcel margins, SKU velocity, throughput. None of which prepares anyone to understand what it actually feels like when a brand owner can't tell their customers where their orders are.

We were built differently.

The Ships A Lot founders still run their own brands. They've sat in the brand-owner chair on the wrong end of bad fulfillment, the 4-hour holds, the pallets that go missing the week before peak, the invoices nobody could reconcile.

Most 3PLs treat your brand like another logo on the roster. We built ours to treat it like our own.

Q2 is closing. Here's the uncomfortable math most brands are about to run into:

If your fulfillment can't handle a strong May, it definitely can't handle Q4.

Every year we get the same calls in October — "we're growing faster than our 3PL can keep up, can you onboard us in three weeks?" Sometimes we can. Often we wish the call had come in May.

The brands that win the holidays decide in summer.
→ Same-day processing at any volume
→ Real-time inventory visibility
→ Dedicated account management as you scale

Your Q4 starts now. Let's talk about your growth plan.

Today, we pause.

Memorial Day isn't about sales or shipping or the unofficial start of summer. It's about the men and women who gave their lives in service to this country, and the families who carry that weight every day after.

To everyone who has lost someone — thank you doesn't begin to cover it. But thank you.

We remember them today, and every day.

Just back from SubSummit in Kansas City — and a huge thank you to every founder and operator who stopped by to chat.

One theme came up again and again: "Our 3PL works fine, until we have a big month." That gap — between a brand's ambition and what their fulfillment can actually handle — is exactly why Ships A Lot exists.

→ Same-day processing at any volume
→ Real-time inventory visibility
→ Dedicated account management as you grow

If we missed you in KC, let's connect. Your next launch shouldn't break your back office.

The countdown is on—SubSummit starts tomorrow.

These events always move fast, but they’re where some of the most valuable conversations happen. New partnerships, fresh ideas, and real insights from operators who are in the trenches every day.

Our team will be there and is carving out time to meet with brands looking to improve how they scale, ship, and serve their customers.

We’re also opening things up a bit with a happy hour at Palm Tree Club—no agenda, just a chance to connect with good people in a more relaxed setting.

If you’ll be there, reach out. Always up for a great conversation.

SubSummit is just one week away, and we’re looking forward to being in the room with some of the best minds in subscription commerce.

Our CEO Brian Baskin, along with founders Jason Macek and John Sedgwick, will be on-site and would love to connect with brands, partners, and operators who are pushing the space forward.

If you’re attending, let’s find some time to meet, whether it’s to talk fulfillment, scaling operations, or just exchange ideas with others in the ecosystem.

We’re also hosting a happy hour at Palm Tree Club and would love to have you join us for a more relaxed setting to connect. Great people, good conversations, and a chance to unwind after a full day at the event.

Drop a comment or send a message if you’ll be there, we’ll make sure to connect.

Growth is exciting — until your fulfillment can't keep up.

We've watched it happen: a brand goes viral, orders flood in, and their 3PL buckles. Shipments delayed. Customers frustrated. Revenue lost.

Ships A Lot was built for these moments.

Whether you're shipping 500 orders a month or 50,000, our infrastructure scales with you. No growing pains. No excuses.

→ Same-day processing at any volume
→ Real-time inventory visibility
→ Dedicated account management as you grow

Your brand was built to scale. Your 3PL should be too.

Let's talk about your growth plan.

Happy Earth Week. Let's talk about the elephant in the warehouse: ecommerce waste.

Every year, billions of packages ship with oversized boxes, excess filler, and non-recyclable materials. It's bad for the planet — and bad for your margins.

At Ships A Lot, sustainability isn't a marketing campaign. It's how we operate:

→ Right-sized packaging to reduce waste and DIM weight charges
→ Recyclable and eco-friendly material options
→ Optimized shipping routes for lower carbon footprint

Green fulfillment isn't just good ethics. It's good business.

Let's build a supply chain your customers — and the planet — can feel good about.
