Recommendation

In 2005, when Amazon Prime entered the market, one-day shipping was a costly exception. Then Amazon cranked up Prime’s shipping speed from two days to one – and changed everything. One-day shipping doesn’t happen by magic, as Kate Schoolov reports on CNBC. Many people work to ensure every delivery, which Amazon insists happen as smoothly as possible – given that it spends billions on shipping alone. Amazon can now ship more than 10 million products with a one-day turnaround, so customers assume it can deliver just about anything, almost anywhere, by tomorrow.  

Take-Aways

  • In the second quarter of 2019, Amazon set aside $800 million to ramp up one-day shipping.
  • An Amazon delivery begins before the customer even places an order.
  • The last leg of a delivery is the most expensive.
