The need for flexible logistics solutions is at an all-time high. In this week's episode of Disruption Interruption, Shaun Savage, CEO of GoShare, explores how his innovative platform is revolutionizing last-mile and middle-mile delivery. By leveraging tech-driven solutions, GoShare empowers small businesses to thrive in today's fast-paced economy. Discover how emerging trends, including autonomous electric vehicles, are set to shape the future of logistics in the years ahead.

TAMPA BAY, Fla., Dec. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- With 40% of Americans turning to side hustles and nearly half starting them to make ends meet, flexible opportunities in industries like logistics are more critical than ever. (1) In this week's Disruption Interruption podcast, Shaun Savage, CEO and Founder of GoShare, joins host Karla Jo Helms (KJ) to discuss how his tech platform is revolutionizing last-mile and middle-mile delivery, creating opportunities, driving efficiency in logistics, and empowering small businesses to thrive in an evolving economy. " For a business to be successful, they have to be able to move goods around quickly. We're not just reinventing the wheel; we're making a better wheel," explains Savage.

From Paper Trails to Seamless Solutions in Delivery
For years, the retail logistics industry relied on outdated methods to move goods. Local delivery drivers were contracted regionally, orders were taken via phone, and deliveries were organized using paper records or fax machines, explains Savage. This led to prolonged delivery times, often spanning weeks.

"The retail industry noticed that they had to be able to deliver goods quickly to compete with today's e-commerce options like Amazon and Wayfair," points out Savage. Recognizing this challenge, GoShare emerged as a transformative force in logistics. By leveraging an array of different technologies, the platform created a faster, more efficient, and user-friendly solution.

Future Supply Chain Trends: The Rise of Autonomous Vehicles
Logistics will continue to be heavily influenced by emerging technologies, and according to Savage, autonomous electric vehicles are expected to be the next game changers. Over the next few years, we could see these vehicles integrated into platforms like GoShare, especially for middle-mile deliveries.

While fully autonomous vehicles may not yet be suitable for complex last-mile deliveries, where human interaction is often necessary, their potential for larger, less intricate logistics tasks is undeniable.

"In the coming years, we'll likely see autonomous vehicles becoming an integral part of the GoShare network, especially for middle-mile deliveries, offering a glimpse into the future of logistics," mentions Shaun. The ability to move goods over longer distances without human drivers could dramatically reduce costs and improve efficiency.

Turning Delivery Challenges into Innovation: Shaun Savage's Path
Shaun shares his experiences managing a house painting business during college revealing a common frustration faced by many contractors: the struggle to get supplies delivered efficiently. Every morning, he would wait in line at the paint store, pick up materials, and juggle deliveries to multiple job sites. When crews ran out of supplies at midday, someone had to go back to the store, wasting valuable time.

At that time, large retailers didn't offer delivery services, leaving contractors to handle logistics on their own. "Now we are one of the primary delivery solutions for that same paint company. It's a cool full-circle story," Shaun says.
