If Time is Money…We’re the Sale Price


What would you say if we…BICO Transportation…could save you 10-50% off all your shipping costs?

Most of us would say, “Sign me up”.

But this isn’t some gimmick…

BICO can actually save you money. You just have to look at the big picture and be honest with yourself.

How?

Are you giving people a discounted rate?

No, and that’s not what we are talking about. Remember think “big picture”.

TIME = MONEY

Here are three examples of how BICO Transportation can save you money:

1. Our services are normally lower than our competition. If you are looking at dollar for dollar value, we beat everyone. But again you have to be honest with yourself and see what you are actually paying for, and then compare prices.

2. Our pick-up and delivery times are faster. Depending on your location, some trucking companies may only go out to your area once every couple of weeks. BICO will go anywhere on any day. How does this save you money? Time is money, and how long can you afford to wait for an item before it’s too late? If you are paying a crew to stand around because the item they need to finish the job isn’t there, then you are losing money fast. Is the loss of production and paying out hourly wages to employees who are not working worth the few bucks that you saved on shipping with another carrier? Be honest with yourself and look at the big picture because that $1,000 part has now turned into a $3,000 part due to time equaling money.

3. We pick-up and deliver for you, rather than you sending your own driver. How does that save money? Because our quoted price is our quoted price, and a lot of times our price is lower than you paying your “normal” driver. How? Again being honest with yourself, how it works is that you pay your employee so much an hour to work for you regardless of what they do. So you pay them their hourly wage to sit in traffic and drive to the supply store. When they get there they visit with the store employees and take their time. Then they load up and visit some more. Then they sit in traffic and drive back to the jobsite. All the while you were paying them their salary, paying for gas, stopping production, taking someone off of the job, and all of this is added on top of the price of the item that was purchased. That $10 part now became a $100 part due to “normal” practices.


Can BICO Transportation save you 10-50% on all your shipping costs? Yes, but that doesn’t mean that you’ll see the difference on the bill. You’ll see it when you add up all of your expenses on how much things really cost.


BICO actually makes you money by saving you money and time.
