How Much Can Logistics Save by Automating Email Outreach?

Discover the concrete savings of automating email outreach in logistics. Our ROI breakdown shows time saved, cost reduction, and revenue impact with AI automation.

The True Cost of Manual Email Outreach

Every hour your logistics team spends on manual email outreach is an hour they are not spending on strategic work that drives growth. At $38/hour and 15 hours per week, the labor cost alone exceeds $30K per year — before factoring in the cost of errors, rework, employee turnover, and the opportunities you miss while your team is buried in routine tasks.

AI-powered email outreach automation changes the economics entirely. Instead of scaling costs linearly with volume, your logistics business can handle 2,000+ emails sent per month with minimal human oversight. The result: a < 30 days payback period and compounding returns as your business grows. Here is the detailed breakdown.
