The challenge with returns is ownership. They cut across customer service, product development, sales, urchasing, quality, retail operations and logistics
— and without clear accountability, costs accumulate and customer experience suffers. Most businesses know their returns process isn't working as well as it should. Few have a clear picture of the total cost, or a plan that addresses the full end-to-end picture.
