Any boot or shoe manufacturer can tell you what an essential piece of hardware the rubber grommet is. Used to reinforce boot and sneaker lace holes, the rubber grommet is a hot commodity to manufacturers not only in the shoewear industry but many others like the automotive and electrical industries. For many business owners, the old adage “time is money” rings true, so the ability to purchase supplies and hardware online is a tremendous benefit. Convenience is just one of these benefits as manufacturers can order their supplies, like rubber grommets online. Below we discuss some of the advantages of purchasing your bulk orders online.
Convenience/Time Saver
The convenience and time saving is the biggest perk. It’s a major expense and interruption to your business to leave your facility in order to stock up on rubber grommets and other hardware. There are no lines to wait in or shop assistants to wait on to help you with your purchases, and you can complete your shopping in minutes. Online shops also give us the opportunity to shop 24/7, creating time for more important business needs.
More Variety
There are many more choices available online. One can get numerous brands and products all in one place. A far greater selection of colors, shapes, and sizes than you will find locally are at your disposal. Apart from that, the stock is much more plentiful.
Better Prices
Cheap deals and better prices are available online, because most times products come to you directly from the manufacturer or seller, without a middleman being involved. Many online shops will offer discounts or rebates online, as well as free shipping, especially when orders are made in bulk.
Turnaround Time
Online retailers will often ship your order out the same day if ordered early enough. Most places will guarantee next day delivery. Even if your desired product is out of stock, online shops will automatically ship out your order as soon as it is in stock, without having to check back in. Imagine the time process of venturing out to your local store only to find the hardware you are looking for is out of stock? Not only do you have to wait for the product to arrive at your local store, you must again interrupt your business day to go retrieve it.
