[QUOTE="TUT, post: 1095979, member: 29298"] The first part wasn't in during the start of the convo (The two carriers are very competitive on each matching service)... The other part is, the part I was talking about. Yes what I am saying is your Sales Force isn't overselling ground and underselling express, that said ground is an easier sell, which is no surprise $$$ is king. There isn't an agenda in that manner. They are out there trying to get business in Ground, Air, Intl, LTL and Ocean, no matter. They are open for business on any of those and will take whatever a shipper needs. The rates that are given to the shipper are comparable to UPS or other competitors, this isn't something where Fedex Ground is under-cutting all competitors (because of an agenda) where Express is the most expensive amongst all providers (because of an agenda), it's based on cost of service. Some here are believing Fedex is purposely moving shippers to ground, I am letting everyone know, that isn't the case. What is happening is the shipper/consumer is driving the demand to ground and Fedex is adjusting to that demand. [/QUOTE]
