Where the opportunity sits
Commercial customers need to understand coverage, cargo suitability and the information required for a quote. The starting point is to identify where that decision becomes difficult, then agree which part of the journey deserves attention first.
02 / Built around your business
What the work can include
Coverage and capability pages, route-focused search content, structured quote requests and sales handoff. The scope is agreed around your current systems, operating capacity and priorities. Each deliverable should have an owner, the information needed to complete it and a clear review point.
01 / Find
Connect a specific need with the right service.
Organise pages and campaign destinations around the services the business actually provides. Explain the audience, coverage and problem before presenting the next action.
- Separate freight, warehousing and delivery services by actual capability and coverage.
- Confirm the service and area covered.
- Use accurate descriptions and current information.
- Keep the page consistent with the source of the visit.
The working decision
Connect a specific need with the right service.
Confirm the service and area covered.
02 / Assess
Help the visitor decide whether the service fits.
Show the scope, preparation and first conversation clearly. Use real examples or approved evidence where available, with the role of the business accurately explained.
- Explain routes, shipment requirements and service limitations accurately.
- Explain practical requirements and limitations.
- Use a focused enquiry or booking route.
- Avoid collecting detailed sensitive records too early.
The working decision

Explain practical requirements and limitations.
03 / Follow through
Connect the enquiry with the person who can help.
Keep the service interest attached to the request and agree who responds. Record whether the conversation leads to a suitable next step so marketing can learn from outcomes.
- Use CRM stages and relevant, consented account communication.
- Agree the receiving owner and response process.
- Separate requested, confirmed and completed work.
- Review why enquiries are declined or stalled.

Measure the decisions that matter
Serviceable quote requests, accepted quotes and account progression. Start with a reliable baseline and keep early interactions separate from completed outcomes. Review the results against your capacity and the costs included in the plan, so the next decision is based on useful business information.
What should a shipping enquiry capture?
Origin, destination, cargo type, approximate volume and the required service are useful starting points. The operations team can then request the detailed shipment information needed for a quote.
Use one page for every service?
Group services where the buying questions are shared. Use separate destinations when requirements, audiences or the next action differ enough to need their own explanation.
Count every contact as a customer?
Keep requests, accepted opportunities and completed work distinct. The operational team’s feedback helps identify which enquiries marketing should attract more often.
Relevant enquiries
Requests that fit the service and audience described in “Find the service”.
Enquiry records with service, audience and coverage context.
Accepted next steps
Suitable requests progressing through “Request a quote”, using an agreed acceptance rule.
The receiving team’s qualification and confirmation records.
Completed outcomes
Confirmed work, attendance or another agreed operational outcome, reported separately from requests.
The business system that records what actually happened.
Follow-through
Progress against “Keep accounts connected” over a stated period, with suitable contact permissions.
Relevant CRM, booking or customer records, with reporting gaps stated.
