The Average Customer - Who and what are the Customers about ?

The customers are a very vital ingredient to the delivery process.  The Average Customer needs to have something delivered.  The “Demand” aspect of the equation belongs to the customer.  Somewhere down the line, sooner or later, the average customer will either be receiving a SPPD or sending a SPPD.

Business's use Courier Services on a regular basis.  Yup, Courier work is part of the American Lifestyle.  It is a vital thread in the modern business tapestry, contributing a substantial percentage to the GDP. 

Customers or Clients range from a book store to a factory.  Business's are a preferred sector of the industry rather the the individual.  The cost is usually beyond what a individual person is willing to pay.  SPPD Courier Service is more prosperous in the business-to-business sector anyway.  The SPPD Courier Service industry is able to accommodate 99 % of the customers/client SPPD needs - every day of the year !
