Vehicle-cargo matching
The first profit model of online freight: the matching of vehicles and goods is one of the most basic profit models of online freight platform. In the past, traditional logistics didn't have a car-goods matching model, which was introduced by acquaintances or drivers wandering around the park looking for goods. Compared with the traditional mode, online freight makes the matching of vehicles and goods more efficient than before, and improves the utilization efficiency of vehicles by about 50%. Shorten and simplify the trading chain, eliminate intermediate links, and shorten the average waiting time from 2-3 days to 8- 10 hour; Extending value-added logistics services will increase drivers' monthly income by 30%-40% and reduce transaction costs by 6%-8% compared with traditional freight transportation.
The online freight platform relies on big data, AI technology, Internet of Things, cloud computing, blockchain and other high technologies to improve the efficiency of vehicle and cargo matching. Through its own technical system, it can realize customer information management, supplier and driver information audit and management, online freight settlement, face recognition, transparent management of the whole transportation process, real-time online supervision and so on. And realize the online, disintermediation and flattening of logistics business, shorten transaction processes and links, and reduce subcontracting costs at different levels.
Data application
The second profit model of online freight: the online freight platform can make full use of data to achieve profit. Through the platform, you can truly record, store, analyze and use a large amount of data, including order information, vehicle trajectory, payment information and so on. Information is independently stored in each independent block, which breaks the information asymmetry, and the data of blockchain knowledge mechanism cannot be tampered with, thus completing the data credit of the platform. Moreover, these data can be viewed and evaluated after some financial institutions are authorized, and the credit line can be adjusted according to the increase of data. Based on these real data, it can attract the integration of capital and lay the foundation for the financial development of online freight platform.
Moreover, the use of these data can provide choice analysis for the development of enterprises, adjust management methods and future planning, and obtain maximum benefits. Based on big data, it provides data analysis for information integration of freight industry and management basis for the government.
Tax financing optimization
The third profit model of online freight: all localities have certain policy support and preferential treatment for online freight operation, and tax collection and management optimization of logistics industry can be realized through policy adjustment. Many enterprises can transport hundreds of millions a year, even if it is only a few million or tens of millions. By cooperating with the online freight platform or applying for online freight qualification, you can obtain relevant tax support policies, and also help enterprises save a lot of costs, so that enterprises can have more funds to research and develop technologies, realize transformation and upgrading, and thus obtain longer-term benefits.
Logistics Finance/Supply Chain Finance
The fourth profit model of online freight: when the number of users of online freight platform reaches a certain level, a series of products and value-added services such as logistics finance can be developed, such as financing loans, refueling in shopping malls, maintenance and so on. Moreover, financing has always been an important factor restricting the development of SMEs. If the logistics industry can achieve financing or increase logistics financial products through the online freight platform, it will have the opportunity to achieve greater development and the business volume will increase exponentially!
So if you want to make a profit through finance, there are generally two ways:
Finance first: Logistics enterprises are generally short of money, unable to get loans, and unable to really become bigger and stronger. After users of online freight platform reach a certain level, they can cooperate with local financial institutions to launch logistics financial dunning products, mainly focusing on data recording, storage and analysis, and conduct credit evaluation on logistics enterprises applying for financial products. However, it should be noted that the online freight platform must strictly control risks.
Financial implantation: mainly ETC prepaid cards, corporate oil cards, car rental, wealth management products, shopping mall refueling, etc. And select the appropriate financial products for implantation. However, these premises are the accumulation of user groups and the establishment of credit information system.
Automobile aftermarket
The fifth profit model of online freight: the aftermarket of online freight platform includes value-added service fees such as ETC, fuel card, tires, accessories and vehicle transactions. However, the current markets such as ETC and oil and gas are very mature and transparent. In order to gain a share in these markets, online freight platforms need to combine the characteristics of the logistics industry, find products that are more suitable for smart logistics needs, and dig deep into the demand pain points of modern logistics enterprises in order to seek new profit growth points from the automotive aftermarket.
Government support
The sixth profit model of online freight: at the government level, online freight enterprises belong to high-tech industries, which have stronger industrial scale benefits and cluster benefits. Compared with traditional industries, they often get more support from the government. At present, many regions have provided certain policy support to encourage enterprises to start online freight transportation, including reducing the tax burden and providing financial support for policy projects. These policy supports have further promoted the development of online freight transportation, and on the basis of ensuring tax compliance, they have achieved cost reduction and efficiency improvement for enterprise operations and enhanced the overall market competitiveness. However, this profit model is not advocated by us. It belongs to the local government's reward and compensation policy and should not be used as a means of profit.
