Since the beginning of internet shopping, people have been looking for a quick shipping method. Although there are many sites that offer relatively quick shipping, Google is now rumored to be starting a same day delivery service. This service is not official yet, but those close to the company say that Google is working on it.
Sources say that it will be offered at much a cheaper price than most of the competitors such as Amazon Prime. If this is true, it could open up even more advantages and ease to online shopping. It could also save lots of forgetful guys on their anniversaries! It may provide another marketing avenue for local online sellers. If Google does indeed start offering this service, it already has a large number of people to market to - their current audience.
Although there has been no direct word from Google yet, Google is known for looking for more exciting and better ways to please their customers. Google is also said to be working with numerous large chains such as Walmart and Target for the service. It looks as if online shopping will be getting a whole lot quicker in the future if these rumors surface.
What does this mean for the current online seller? It may be a way to market your merchant-filled inventory to local customers. It may be a way of sourcing products for that Amazon FBA box you want to fill. It may allow those who cannot easily source products locally a chance to find more items to sell from the comfort of their own home.
At this point, the key factor needed is patience while we wait for the official announcement.
