Cue ShipStation\u2019s latest ebook, &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/breaking-benchmarks\/\">Breaking Benchmarks<\/a>,&#8221; which offers essential insights based on fresh data from April 2025 to help brands adapt and thrive.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some highlights from the report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-cost-consciousness-revolution\">The Cost Consciousness Revolution<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Data from the Breaking Benchmark report reveals that <strong>75% of consumers<\/strong> now express significant concern about online order costs\u2014<em>a 13% increase from November 2024<\/em>. This isn&#8217;t just casual price sensitivity\u2014it&#8217;s fundamentally altering purchasing decisions across all demographics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Millennials are particularly affected, with <strong>44%<\/strong> expressing heightened concern about online prices. As inflation persists and economic uncertainties grow, consumers are becoming increasingly value-driven, creating both challenges and opportunities for retailers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-delivery-dilemma-is-speed-or-cost-more-important\">The Delivery Dilemma: Is Speed or Cost More Important?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The relationship between delivery speed and cost has reached a critical turning point in 2025. While speed remains important, <strong>41% of consumers<\/strong> now consider delivery cost a critical factor\u2014an 8% increase from last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interestingly, this varies dramatically by generation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Baby Boomers and Gen X show the highest sensitivity to delivery costs (<strong>47%<\/strong> and <strong>48%<\/strong> respectively)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gen Z maintains a preference for speed, with <strong>28%<\/strong> prioritizing quick delivery<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Millennials occupy a middle ground, with <strong>35% prioritizing cost<\/strong> and <strong>29% valuing delivery speed<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Even more striking, <strong>69% of consumers<\/strong> would switch brands for more convenient delivery or return options\u2014a 25% increase from 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/breaking-benchmarks\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com\/docsz\/AD_4nXfvc3OIQ-MXFPx9BO8Ri-7CRNX_z0FEwoteyDQDVQrEB4xsndUeJ-1A9g7OtDk9tQmEhfdwZ_lgJy5wWXyClDeY7rDrVK7ZPqI8uBWws5ZZ_yqrsve3cdV7IdlQEZ9DGG4L8GnfmA?key=Zar6n_L5p1GQvhwA5MqjYw\" alt=\"\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-us-retailers-are-shifting-growth-expectations-and-international-ambitions\">US Retailers Are Shifting Growth Expectations and International Ambitions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The optimism of US retailers in late 2024 regarding online growth expectations has given way to a more cautious outlook. In November,<strong> zero<\/strong> US retailers expected lower growth in 2025. April 2025 data now shows that:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>13%<\/strong> now expect slightly lower growth<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>8%<\/strong> anticipate significantly lower growth<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Retailers expecting higher growth dropped from <strong>54%<\/strong> to just <strong>34%<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This dramatic shift stems from two key factors: changing consumer spending patterns as budgets tighten, and uncertainty around tariffs and trade policies affecting pricing strategies and inventory planning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>US retailers are also reconsidering global expansion plans. The percentage focusing solely on domestic markets jumped from just <strong>4%<\/strong> in 2024 to <strong>28%<\/strong> today. Similarly, retailers planning to enter new markets in the next 12 months plummeted from <strong>44%<\/strong> to <strong>17%<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/breaking-benchmarks\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com\/docsz\/AD_4nXf4zlpDygNO2MTsc53nA-Ld6poyemu7bF3JhDsIvqEcC646YJq5b02oaanVgZc11jkSTUdFhjcOAHqXi9X5qPF6dddsOeg7a5y-CSgdTq_e83snAzV3H1dqnuARGKVKNwpUHf6o?key=Zar6n_L5p1GQvhwA5MqjYw\" alt=\"\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-four-strategies-for-success-in-a-changing-market\">Four Strategies for Success in a Changing Market<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite these challenges, forward-thinking brands can maintain and grow revenue by:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Embracing transparency<\/strong> with customers about delivery timeframes, costs, and potential changes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Finding a balance<\/strong> between delivery speed, convenience, and cost through flexible options<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Planning for economic impacts<\/strong> on consumer behavior with scenario-based strategies<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Optimizing fulfillment operations<\/strong> to improve efficiency and reduce costs<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-turn-ecommerce-turmoil-into-a-strategic-advantage\">Turn Ecommerce Turmoil Into A Strategic Advantage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For a comprehensive analysis of these trends and detailed strategies to navigate today&#8217;s ecommerce and global marketplace challenges, download ShipStation&#8217;s full &#8220;Breaking Benchmarks&#8221; ebook.
