Parcel2Go Backs Government Call For SMEs To Break Into New Overseas Markets

Leave a comment

A call by the government’s trade and investment minister Lord Green for more small businesses in Britain to attempt to break into new markets overseas has been backed by the UK’s largest online parcel delivery service.

Parcel2Go, which assists individuals and businesses in shipping more than two million packages across the globe with world courier firms every year, believes there are significant opportunities waiting for forward-thinking companies.

During a recent appearance in Gateshead, the minister said small businesses sending their products overseas were at the heart of the government’s plans to grow the economy. Lord Green said that while the domestic market continued to grow slowly, opportunities were going to come from overseas. He also stressed the importance of looking to new markets outside of the eurozone, such as Asia, the Middle East and the United States.

Parcel2Go’s marketing director Richard Mercer said: “Small businesses are certainly central to the economic recovery, and Lord Green is correct in highlighting the importance of overseas markets to businesses in the UK. There are opportunities out there and at Parcel2Go we want to help as many companies as possible beat the downturn and explore avenues for growth further afield.

“It is understandable that small firms especially might be hesitant about attempting to build new customer bases in countries a considerable distance from Britain. However, with the help of partners such as Parcel2Go, which can help take the hassle out of shipping goods abroad, it is possible for these firms to flourish overseas.”

Parcel2Go works with some of the world’s leading parcel delivery couriers, including Parcelforce, City Link and FedEx, to organise the delivery of parcels to countries across the globe, from Australia to Cyprus. International delivery services to fast-growing economies including Brazil, South Africa and China are also available through the website.

Advantages of Ecommerce Website Development in India

Leave a comment

Bangalore, India- March 30, 2012: India is one of the most preferred destinations for outsourcing web development services. The main reason is that India has undoubtedly an upper hand in the software development field. There is no scarcity of talent and manpower in India. Besides, India offers highly cost effective web development solutions, not compromising with quality. All these make India the first choice for companies to outsource their work. Some of the main factors which favor India in this field are:

Unmatched Talented Human Resource
India has one of the largest human resources of talented professionals in the information technology sector. There are many world class IT institutions in India which produces thousands of highly talented professionals. The competition is so high that it becomes necessary for these professionals to keep their skills updated with all the latest technologies. Almost every software engineer in India has got a bachelor’s degree as well as master’s degree.

Highly Cost Effective Solutions
This is the main reason why developed countries prefer India. India offers one of the most cost effective solutions in the IT industry worldwide. Indian professionals can work at very low prices which cannot be guaranteed anywhere else. But even then, no compromise is made in terms of the quality of the work. Professionalism reflects in their work, no matter how cheap the services are.

IT Friendly Government Policies
India has a very stable political situation which favours the growth of IT sector. This is an important factor which all companies consider before deciding to outsource their work to any country. Indian government is very keen on helping its IT sector by making IT friendly policies that support the outsourcing jobs. This increases the IT trade between India and other countries. Besides this India has also set up many IT parks, which acts as the hub of software development companies in India.

World Class Communication Network
Communication plays a key role in outsourcing projects. Without efficient communication between both parties, the work would be stalled and result in losses. India has a world-class communication network of mobile phones and ISP supported by dedicated communication satellites. High speed broadband services are not only limited to metropolitan cities, but also available in smaller towns. This allows large files to be sent and received from any part of the world easily.

Parcel Delivery Firm Backs Findings Of Online Shopping Survey

Leave a comment

Bolton-based online parcel delivery specialist Parcel2Go has given its backing to a recent internet shopping survey, which found that high delivery charges had led many consumers to abandon purchases.

A survey of 2,000 UK consumers, carried out by ecommerce specialist Econsultancy, found that nearly three-quarters of people (74 per cent) had abandoned an online purchase because they thought the charge for having their product delivered was too high.

Parcel2Go’s marketing director Richard Mercer says this is an issue that all online retailers should be aware of, and work towards addressing.

He said: “The fact that so many consumers have been in the position where they are all ready to go ahead with a purchase, and then have decided to abandon it at the last minute, should certainly start alarm bells ringing with firms. Excessive delivery charges are something that online shoppers are clearly not prepared to put up with.

“Of course the majority of online businesses are not able to go down the same route as the major players such as Amazon and Play.com and offer free parcel delivery as standard, but this survey highlights how important it is to get delivery charges right.”

Parcel2Go helps individuals and businesses arrange shipping of more than two million parcels to destinations in the UK and across the world every year. By partnering with some of the leading world courier companies such as FedEx, City Link and Parcelforce, Parcel2Go is able to offer its customers access to a huge range of competitively-priced domestic and international delivery services.

Mr Mercer added: “The internet has made it easier than ever for businesses to organise their parcel deliveries, and so by offering low-cost, reliable courier services with parcel tracking through their site, firms can increase the number of shoppers who complete purchases at the checkout.”

Chordoma Foundation Announces the Launch of an Improved Website.

Leave a comment

World’s leading chordoma information resources now available.

Durham, NC March 29, 2012 – Since 2007, the Chordoma Foundation has been the only organization in the world dedicated to finding a cure for chordoma, a rare cancer that affects the neck and spine of people of all ages. The Foundation’s website has become the world’s leading source of information about chordoma for patients, families, researchers and physicians. To better serve all of these constituents, the Chordoma Foundation is pleased to announce the launch of a newly designed website at chordomafoundation.org.

“For rare diseases like chordoma, vital information is often hard to come by,” says Josh Sommer, Co-Founder and Executive Director of the Chordoma Foundation and a chordoma survivor. “Our new website will empower patients to more effectively navigate treatment, doctors to better manage their chordoma patients, and researchers to more easily study the disease.”

A new section for patients and families includes easy-to-understand information about chordoma and treatment options, a doctor database, an up-to-date list of open clinical trials, opportunities to participate in research, and a vast list of helpful resources.

“A patient’s initial treatment can have a major impact on their outcome and quality of life” says Sommer. “It is, therefore, critical to our mission that any newly diagnosed patient visiting our website come away with the information they need to get the best care possible.”

For scientists and physicians, the site features tools to facilitate collaboration and information sharing. A Researcher Directory lists over 150 colleagues and potential collaborators across the world, and a resource repository catalogues all publically available chordoma cell lines, animal models and datasets.

Chordoma is a relentless and difficult to treat bone cancer that occurs in the head and spine in people of all ages.  Since its inception in 2007, the Chordoma Foundation has systematically funded and facilitated research to develop new treatments, and ultimately a cure, for chordoma. More information on chordoma, the Foundation, and opportunities to contribute to this important research can be found online at chordomafoundation.org.
