Moments that make or break loyalty

Howdy readers 🥰

The smartest move you can make before the holiday rush isn’t another shipping test; it’s watching how other brands already failed and locking those gaps down tonight.

Shipfusion spent $8,000 placing 110+ Cosmetic brands to track what really happens after the “Order Confirmed” email, and these insights matter to every business that ships to customers.

• Only 26% added a delivery window to confirmation emails.
• Average order-to-door was 6 days; 36% took over a week, and some stretched to 19 days.
• 61% went silent between “shipped” and “out for delivery.”
• 82% used generic tracking pages instead of branded experiences.
• 1 in 3 packages arrived scuffed, and more than 10% were damaged.

These aren’t stats to file away; they’re a complete teardown and action plan you can put to work right away.
