Ops Powerhouse Claire Alexander Launches Precision-Built Platform for Streamlined Operations, Scale and Growth
SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--A new era of business building begins with the official launch of The Arch's Anvil, an operations and growth platform created by financial services industry veteran Claire Alexander (Alexander). Alexander aims to help service-based firms transform big visions into high-functioning businesses. Developed through years of in-the-trenches experience in financial services, insurance, and real estate, The Arch's Anvil brings a streamlined, centralized, and personalized approach to structuring and strengthening client-service operations, making it a powerful new tool for financial advisors, entrepreneurs, attorneys, CPAs, and other small business owners serving individual clients in service-based professions. We provide tools and structure, built collaboratively in just 10 weeks to help business owners bring their vision to life, allowing them to spend less time on administrative friction and more time focusing on what matters to their clients and their growth. Share Alexander's grounding principle for The Arch's Anvil is this: Intentional business owners – and even accidental entrepreneurs – are the architects of their future. The platform positions itself as the essential tool, or 'anvil,' to shape that vision into sustainable success. Having spent over a decade building systems, processes, and teams within the financial services industry, Alexander gained significant expertise. This included scaling internal operations at a wealth advisory firm to $3.5 billion in assets through various transitions like mergers, acquisitions, affiliations, and succession, which ultimately highlighted for her the pervasive operational gaps facing not only financial advisory firms but also service providers in adjacent professions. Many of the available resources were either disconnected, overly technical, or not tailored to the boutique service businesses that prioritize trust and tangible client outcomes. 'At The Arch's Anvil, we don't just advise; we're in the trenches with you, transforming your company vision into a powerful, client-facing service system,' noted Founder Claire Alexander. 'We deliver everything from custom email sequences and branded templates to the robust back-end tech stack, ensuring a seamless, hands-off experience for your team. We tackle the operational 'craziness'—from onboarding and training to workflow design—freeing up critical time and eliminating bottlenecks.' 'Our ultimate goal is to provide the tools and structure, built collaboratively in just 10 weeks, so you can bring your vision to life, faster, and without the piecemeal struggle,' Alexander added. 'This helps business owners spend less time on administrative friction and more time focusing on what matters to their clients and their growth. The additional time we'll spend together 1:1 is also a key part of the value proposition – and seeing the immediate interest and demand for this work has been energizing. I look forward to partnering with more right-fit clients to create meaningful results and invite them to connect with me through my website.' ELIMINATING OPERATIONAL FRICTION FOR BUSINESS OWNERS The platform's core function is to help professionals, such as financial advisors, CPAs, attorneys, real estate agents, insurance professionals, and trusted consultants, create a more manageable and efficient workflow. It's particularly tailored for firms that work with individual clients and require robust, repeatable processes to reliably deliver high-quality service. The Arch's Anvil addresses key pain points for service-based firms by centralizing communications, integrating business tools, standardizing workflows, improving transparency and accountability, easing onboarding, minimizing administrative burdens, and enabling firms to maintain organized and accessible records — all designed for efficient, client-focused operations. The platform is both tailored and flexible: The basic structure centers around a secure, centralized digital dashboard that serves as the operational hub for service-based businesses. When users log in, they are presented with a straightforward interface that organizes all their business resources, project deliverables, documents, and workflow materials, making this essential information easily accessible and all in one place. The design is intended to eliminate fragmented processes, eradicating the need to search through emails or use disconnected platforms to find important information. 'Claire took me through The Arch's Anvil platform, and I was truly impressed. Any business owner, especially those struggling with small business complexities like mine, would benefit from this solution,' said Marie Swift, Founder of Impact Communications and Host of Swift Chats in the Financial Services Industry, a video interview and podcast series. 'Claire's expertise in financial services, as well as her experience in real estate and insurance, shines through in how versatile and practical the platform is. It's clear that The Arch's Anvil can make operations much more streamlined and manageable for advisors, service firms, and anyone who needs an organized approach to serving clients.' View or listen to the Swift Chat interview with Claire Alexander here: 'I've had the privilege of working directly with Claire, and she is one of the most gifted operations professionals I've encountered. Claire brings structure, clarity, and momentum to every business she touches. Her ability to transform complexity into streamlined systems is exceptional,' said Scott Danner, Entrepreneur, M&A Strategist, Author, and Host of The High Performance Life Podcast. 'I fully support the launch of The Arch's Anvil and look forward to seeing the impact she will continue to make for service-based businesses across the country.' ABOUT CLAIRE ALEXANDER Claire Alexander is a seasoned operations leader with nearly a decade as a licensed financial advisor and insurance professional, distinguished by her hands-on experience in the operational trenches of thriving advisory firms. She was instrumental in scaling a financial advisory practice by building robust internal systems that contributed to $3 billion in assets under management growth in just four years. Alexander's expertise is comprehensive; she has led or managed every key department within a company, from marketing strategy and HR systems to meticulous bookkeeping, seamless client onboarding, rigorous compliance, and effective employee training. Her operational leadership extends beyond financial services to include managing multi-million-dollar construction projects, crafting systems for real estate and property management companies, and overseeing the complex operations of over 100 contractors and employees. Having personally built and scaled operational structures for multiple businesses, Alexander champions the conviction that true, lasting efficiency forms the bedrock of unstoppable growth. Through The Arch's Anvil, she brings this broad and practical expertise to service-based professionals seeking to transform their vision into a reliable, scalable business reality.

DCL Logistics Launches SelectShip, an AI-Powered Shipping Engine Built for Peak Season Performance and Beyond
SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- DCL Logistics, a leading fulfillment partner for modern ecommerce brands, today announced the launch of SelectShip, an AI-powered shipping engine already being used by brands like Canopy, Cure Hydration, and NuFace to automate parcel decisions, reduce unforeseen delivery costs, and use real-time shipping market data to meet rising customer expectations without adding operational overhead. Brands are locking in logistics strategies for Q4, a season where fulfillment execution can make or break revenue. This year, a perfect storm of tariff uncertainty, rising supply chain costs, and heightened consumer expectations has put parcel operations under pressure. Most ecommerce teams are using static, outdated logic to manage a dynamic industry of fragmented carrier networks, volatile fees, and thinner margins than ever before—without the infrastructure to adapt in real time. DCL Logistics built SelectShip in response to the rising complexity of parcel delivery and the growing pressure on fulfillment teams to do more with less. The fully managed, AI-powered system automates thousands of shipping decisions in real time, optimizing for speed, cost, and reliability for each order. Embedded within DCL's fulfillment platform, SelectShip requires no new tools, dashboards, or configuration from the customer. 'Parcel delivery has become one of the most visible and unforgiving parts of the ecommerce experience,' said Dave Tu, President of DCL Logistics. 'SelectShip reflects our belief that fulfillment partners shouldn't just provide software. They should own the systems and execution that brands can rely on. This is not another tool. It's an intelligent system, fully operated by our team, that turns shipping from a liability into a competitive edge.' Already in Market, Already Delivering SelectShip is already live with leading ecommerce brands and delivering measurable improvements across cost, speed, and customer experience. Built to operate behind the scenes, the platform enables fast, intelligent shipping decisions without adding operational overhead. Operational Results to Date: Shipping costs have decreased by 12 to 19% on average Transit times from two key facilities improved from 3.1 to 2.3 days using standard shipping One-third of orders are now arriving next day Delivery area surcharges have been avoided in over 95% of cases 55 to 60% of shipments include photo proof of delivery for added transparency 'DCL is taking a forward-thinking approach by embedding real-time shipping intelligence directly into their fulfillment operations,' said Jason Murray, CEO and Co-Founder at Shipium. 'SelectShip reflects what modern logistics infrastructure should look like. Brands get adaptive, AI-powered performance without the overhead of managing rules, carriers, or disconnected tools.' Built to Operate, Not Just Inform Most 3PLs rely on outdated systems with static logic that only take into account a few of many thousands of critical shipping variables. DCL takes a different approach. SelectShip is a dynamic tool that leverages machine learning to evaluate thousands of critical variables in real time, ensuring every package is automatically optimized for speed, reliability and cost. It's fully managed and embedded within DCL's fulfillment stack, with routing intelligence powered by Shipium and execution handled entirely by DCL's transportation team. Core Features Include: AI-optimized routing based on real-time data across billions of network data points Automated carrier and service selection for every order at the time of manifest Built-in compliance and label validation safeguards Calculates for the all-in cost, not just the base rate – including all extra fees like fuel, surcharges and more Transparent invoicing that eliminates surprise fees Fast onboarding, with most brands live in under three weeks Seamless integration with DCL's eFactory platform, no extra tools required SelectShip builds on DCL's commitment to owning fulfillment end-to-end. It delivers intelligent, embedded infrastructure that adapts to each order in real time, without requiring customer-side complexity. This launch marks a broader shift in how DCL supports growth-stage brands: by turning shipping into a system, not a set of decisions.
