CHICAGO, May 19, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Echo Global
Logistics, Inc. (NASDAQ: ECHO), a leading provider of
technology-enabled transportation management services, announced
today that after a successful pilot that began in March, it has
formally launched EchoShip Rewards, a loyalty program that allows
clients to earn rewards points when they book LTL and Truckload
shipments via EchoShip, the company's proprietary shipping
platform.
EchoShip Rewards is an added benefit for clients who use
EchoShip, an innovative, self-service web portal that consolidates
and simplifies shipping by enabling customers to quote, book, ship,
manage invoices, and track shipments in real time. With its simple,
user-friendly interface, EchoShip eliminates repetitive workflows
and speeds up shipping with an efficient, four-step process, giving
clients time back to focus on their business.
Through EchoShip Rewards, shippers can earn points when they use
the EchoShip web portal to book LTL and Truckload shipments. Once
they reach certain levels, they can redeem their EchoShip Rewards
points in three ways, which include products from a catalog of over
10,000 items, discounts on future EchoShip shipments, or donations
to various charities.
"At Echo, our industry expertise, best-in-class technology, and
award-winning customer service have set us apart in the industry,
allowing us to attract a diverse client base of over 35,000
shippers," said Dave Menzel,
President and Chief Operating Officer at Echo. "We're always
looking for ways to enhance the experience of our clients, so we're
pleased to launch EchoShip Rewards, a program that rewards them for
their everyday shipping."
"When developing EchoShip Rewards, we conducted extensive market
research to understand what matters most to shippers, and we
incorporated our findings directly into the program," said
Christopher Clemmensen, SVP of
Marketing at Echo. "With EchoShip Rewards, not only can our clients
earn points to redeem for merchandise, shipping discounts, or
charitable donations, but we at Echo have the opportunity to
strengthen our relationships with our clients while driving
adoption and increasing usage of EchoShip."
EchoShip transactional users are automatically enrolled in the
EchoShip Rewards program. In addition to the points they earn when
they book LTL and Truckload shipments via EchoShip, members will
also be able to earn bonus points during special promotions
throughout the year.
