Webplus, Inc. Launches Shipping Sidekick v1.0

Shipping Sidekick is a quick and easy tool allowing shippers to compare rates and shipping times in one simple step. Shipping Sidekick is available free of charge on a trial basis for a limited time at www.shippingsidekick.com.

Aberdeen, SD (PRWEB) September 1, 2006 -- Webplus, Inc., the leading provider of leased ecommerce solutions, announced today that it has launched Shipping Sidekick v1.0 (www.shippingsidekick.com). Shipping Sidekick is a quick and easy tool allowing shippers to compare rates and shipping times in one simple step. Shipping Sidekick is available free of charge on a trial basis for a limited time at www.shippingsidekick.com.

Using Shipping Sidekick, small business owners, ebay sellers, or anyone who wants to compare shipping rates can compare the rates of UPS, USPS, FedEx, and DHL quickly and efficiently. Package weight, destination, and package characteristics need only be entered once to retrieve the rates of all shippers for all delivery speeds on one single screen for comparison purposes. The difference between shipping rates allows the shipper to use the most cost effective shipper for any given package, resulting in substantial savings to the shipper.

“With the emergence of DHL and FedEx Ground as major players in the US parcel delivery market, competition among the shippers has really heated up,” said Jacob Lakhany, Business Development Manager, Webplus, Inc. “I don’t think that most people realize how much the shipping rates can differ between shipping companies for any given package, often $3-5 for small packages and much more for larger ones. Shipping Sidekick allows shippers to take advantage of the best shipping rate for each and every package they send out. This is a product which saves far more than it costs for anyone shipping any volume of packages. We are very excited for launch and hope people will check it out!”
