What nobody tells you about curbside is that the more successful your pickup channel becomes, the more challenging it is to keep everything organized.
Between managing inventory, fulfillment, and deliveries, there's a lot that can go wrong.
And since there aren't many helpful resources that exist for this topic, lessons on curbside are usually learned through trial-and-error.
Which is why Blaine and Brooks decided to make an episode detailing some of their biggest pickup day goof-ups.
They'll also reveal three systems they developed that helped curbside-pickup run so smoothly, eventually they were able to delegate the entire process to our team.
And if that's something you'd like to do as well, you'll want to catch the entire episode!

As always, these systems were refined through years of experience and by first doing things the wrong way!
