- Abstract
Online sales of goods and services are constantly increasing, which imposes a significant challenge on logistics networks worldwide. Enabled by recent technological developments and crowdsourcing concepts, novel ways of delivering goods have emerged lately. To provide insights into the motivations of crowdsourcees and their willingness to work as occasional drivers, as well as into the requirements a crowdshipping company shall fulfil, we performed a survey with 100 respondents. Methodologically we applied a contingent valuation, which identifies elements the crowdsourcing business model shall provide to make it a sustainable one. (C) 2021 The Authors.
