7 Reasons Santa Claus is like Hot Shot Delivery

Tuesday, December 20th, 2011

1. Although unknown to most, Santa Claus’ suit was inspired by ‘Hot Shot Red & white’. With delivery so reliable, Santa felt compelled to have the same trusted reputation, so he modeled his signature wardrobe after Hot Shot Delivery!

2. Both Hot Shot and Santa Claus use the latest & greatest in tracking technology. Santa was so impressed by Hot Shot’s state-of-the-art tracker that he started using a system modeled after it. Hot Shot’s tracking system lets customers know exactly where their packages are at all times, and Santa figured he could make use of this himself.

3. Hot Shot and Santa both deliver joy during the holiday season! From presents, to treats and sweets, only Hot Shot and Santa can quickly deliver the goods spreading holiday cheer from door to door (or chimney to chimney).

4. With hundreds of staff and delivery drivers, Hot Shot is well-equipped with plenty of man power to ensure that everyone gets their holiday merriment. When Santa noticed how efficient Hot Shot’s staff was, he promptly hired elves and trained them to transport and process items, just like the Hot Shot team.

5. Hot Shot Delivery has a fleet of quick & reliable transportation to get packages delivered as quickly as possible. Santa knew he needed to be as quick as the Hot Shot Delivery team, so he invested in a sleigh and his reindeer. Although not as fancy as a Hot Shot Delivery vehicle, it would just have to do.

6. Everyone knows that Santa works 24/7 in order to make it all the way around the world at all the right times to get kids around the world their presents on time. Hot Shot has deliveries to make to kids, adults and well, everyone! So Hot Shot works around the clock, 24/7 to make sure every package is in the right hands on time, no matter how big or small.

7. Kris Kringle, Papa Noel, St. Nick…all very different names, but all associated to the one and only Santa Claus. Just like Hot Shot’s staff are known as many different things; courier, messenger, delivery driver…all have one purpose, and that’s to satisfy customers during this holiday season!

May this holiday season be filled with warmth, laughter and love. From our family to yours, happy holidays!

A Messenger’s Message

Thursday, September 29th, 2011

September is a tremendous month for so many reasons. Fall is in the air (sometimes here in Texas), it’s my birth month, and it’s also the month of Saint Gabriel’s Day. Gabriel was an angelic messenger. How cool is that title? The terrific thing I found out about Gabriel is that he appears across multiple religions, and there is amazing history and art associated with him. However, at the root of it all, Gabriel was a messenger.

I grew up surrounded by the delivery and courier/messenger business, and today, I am honored to serve as the President of Houston’s leading courier service, Hot Shot Delivery, Inc. Growing up, I never gave a lot of thought to what a messenger was or did. People asked me all the time, “What do you deliver?” For years, my answer was simple: “We deliver envelops, boxes, or whatever you need.”

If you asked me today, my answer would be a little different, as I have developed a deeper appreciation for the importance of our services. I’d tell you: “We deliver, peace of mind to the nervous new associate shipping their first deal to closing.” “We deliver life to the young father that is undergoing emergency valve replacement surgery.” “We deliver time to the busy executive assistant, who no longer has sit on hold to place an order.” “We deliver comfort the patient that can now choose home dialysis.” “We deliver excitement when you watch a sporting event in HD.” “We deliver luxury when you choose to eat a fine seafood meal.”

Finally, “We deliver enjoyment to our customers because they know that when we are on the delivery, they can relax, have peace of mind and time to enjoy the comfort and luxury of life.”

Although my answer has changed, what we do today at Hot Shot Delivery, Inc. is no different than what we have always done. Now that I have turned another year older, I suppose I am getting more sentimental and reflective. Our service options and offerings have expanded, but like Gabriel, our message is still the same.

Be sure to take a moment and reflect on the messengers and messages around you. Here’s to success and health of you and yours. Thank you to all for supporting Hot Shot and for being a part of our family.

All the best,
Eric

Hot Shot Goes Postal

Thursday, August 11th, 2011

Over 20 years ago one of Hot Shot’s best customers told us that he “loved using us to handle the little errands” that just consumed his time. Today, that same “time is money” philosophy still rings true. Recently, when I attended a networking event hosted by my friends at Prepared4Life.org, I was again told how much time and productivity our service gives back to the workforce.

This got me thinking about the little things we do and one of the most important daily functions in every business: Mail Runs. For years, Hot Shot Delivery Inc. has collected mail in the Houston area. In fact, Mail Runs are currently our most popular delivery service in Houston.

With recent buzz of Postal Office closures we wanted to let you know that we are here for you. Don’t stress about how you will get your mail out. Hot Shot will come by your office and pick up your outgoing regular mail, certified mail, or Fed Ex packages. To keep your staff productive and out of the August heat, we also offer Morning Mail Recovery service where we pick up and deliver incoming mail to you.

Have you run out of time to get a package prepared before the Postman arrives? Ever need to make sure a proposal gets postmarked that day? For last minute deadlines, Hot Shot is here for you 24/7/365.

To get started on Daily Mail Runs, call Hot Shot Delivery at 713-869-7575 or email us at Sales@HotShot-Delivery.com.
