RTO Killer: Return to Origin Strategy
Summary
Summary
In COD eCommerce, RTO is the silent killer of profits. Every failed delivery eats into your margins—hard. You’ll understand exactly why RTO happens, and what ideal RTO % to aim for (and red flags if it’s too high). We’ll show how to reduce fake or prank orders using simple but effective SMS & WhatsApp confirmation flows. You'll get courier recommendations where fast delivery = lower RTO, and how to set up auto-confirmation apps to automate order verification. We’ll dive into the importance of syncing with delivery partners to avoid delays, misroutes, or excessive return times. Learn how to incentivize prepaid orders (without killing conversions), and how product quality, packaging, and delivery experience directly impact your RTO rate. Finally, we’ll walk you through how to calculate RTO’s impact on your profits, so you can optimize cash flow and scale with confidence. 👉 Control your RTO, and you control your bottom line.
