The easy warehouse management system for 3PLs

3PL companies that love Luminous

Made to take away the pain of growing your 3PL

3PLs are easy to start but difficult to grow. The typical journey consists of three stages: garage, client/tech expansion, and fulfillment at scale. It’s the middle phase where 3PLs experience the most pain, as ShipStation, Google Sheets, and QuickBooks don’t work for more than a few customers. Watch our video below to understand this journey and where Luminous fits in.

The three stages of the 3PL business journey

  • Most start in a home garage
  • Low barrier to entry
  • Often servicing a friend or someone they
    know with an ecommerce company
  • 1-2 clients
  • 10-500 shipments a day
  • Not hugely profitable
  • Handling at least 3 clients
  • ShipStation, Google Sheets, and QuickBooks are the tech stack
  • Manual billing from QuickBooks takes too much time
  • Constantly answering client questions about inventory and stock levels
  • Hired a picker, but sometimes they pack the wrong stuff
  • This is where Luminous comes in
  • Creates custom tech that further automates the business
  • Becomes experts in their sector
  • Expands to new client types
  • Differentiates based on their tech and industry expertise

Become more efficient and profitable

Once you start growing, things get complicated and you need to streamline operations to stay profitable.

Take back your time

Manually billing clients in QuickBooks and answering questions about stock levels are both major time sucks for 3PLs. Also, you might hire a picker but they’ll often ship the wrong stuff without a good system. These problems drain your resources. Luminous sets things right and gives you back your time to focus on growth.

An affordable option to fuel your growth

An affordable option to fuel your growth

There is a gap in the market for 3PL software. Your options are either extremely overpriced ERPs that cost $200k to implement or $200/month bare-bones tools that don’t get the job done or offer any support. Luminous is the tool you actually need, at a price you can actually afford.
