InXpress is a business-to-business, home-based sales franchise in the shipping and logistics industry. Our franchisees sell global shipping and freight services to small- and medium-sized businesses. No retail storefront, no handling of packages, and no employees required!
InXpress is the only logistics company in the U.S. contracted as an authorized reseller with multiple major carriers covering all three types of typical business shipping needs – international small parcel, domestic small parcel, and palletized freight services. Due to our massive group shipping volume, franchisees receive deeply discounted shipping rates, which they then offer to small- to medium-sized businesses. Shipping and logistics is an essential industry that enjoys stability and even growth during economic downturns. InXpress franchisees are salespeople and shipping consultants. There is very low overhead with no office, storefront, or employees required at startup, and franchisees only need a cell phone, a computer and a car to start the business … along with sales hustle!

Function of the owner
InXpress franchisees are salespeople and consultants. They spend their day either cold calling or door knocking (successful franchisees do both!) from 9 to 5. Their main targets are small- and medium-sized businesses. These companies typically cannot get big discounts on shipping services. With the InXpress volume, franchisees can save these customers between 11% and 33% on shipment costs on average. The franchisee will speak to the person in charge of the business’s shipping needs and then if they’re successful in obtaining the business as a customer, they set them up with InXpress’ proprietary software so that the business can schedule shipments on their own. The franchisee then provides personal customer service after the sale, ensuring a high rate of customer retention. The customer continues to ship, and the franchisee makes money on each shipment. As the franchisee sells more customers, the residual income builds!
This is a very sales focused Franchise model. We require franchisees to commit full time to the business. This is not an absentee or semi-absentee model.
Desired background of prospects and Ideal candidate
Successful franchisees of InXpress are highly motivated, self-driven and can see themselves enjoying a consultative sales role. They have no fear of picking up the phone to cold call, utilizing the training and tools we provide. They will interact with people every day, so building relationships is key! Franchisees do not need any industry experience. Those with a sales-management background have an easy time scaling this business by hiring a sales team after the ramp-up phase.
Number, type of employees
No employees are required to start and franchisees can be the sole salesperson to build the business on a full-time basis. To scale this business, the franchisee would hire sales representatives and part-time customer service support.
Territory protection/description
We are an open-territory model. Franchisees have a designated Primary Marketing Area (PMA) but are not restricted from selling to customers anywhere in the U.S. Our PMAs typically have at least 10,000 potential small- and medium-sized businesses.
