Tags Marketing Tips for Mailing and Fulfillment Service Providers
I recently had the chance to speak at the 2012 MFSA Southwest Conference in Fort Worth, Texas.
I want to express my sincere gratitude to the conference organizers for having me down and to all of the attendees for making me feel loved. I mean it! I really appreciated it. There was a great camaraderie throughout the conference.
Throughout my presentation, I discussed the convergence of traditonal forms of marketing — including print, mail, and fulfillment — with online marketing, social media, and mobile.
I presented strategies, tips, and tools that service providers can use to effectively sell, build, manage, execute, and measure multi-channel marketing solutions.
Below are the slides that I used for my presentation. I hope that you find them helpful!

Customer Spotlight: Using Video to Sell Fulfillment
I just wanted to take a quick moment to turn the spotlight on one of interlinONE’s customers.
H & H Graphics Group utilizes our Warehouse Management and Order Fulfillment software to provide a number of services to their clients.
They utilize a variety of our features, including:
- Inventory Management
- Online Order Entry
- Pick Tickets and Packing Slips
- Order Fulfillment
- Shipping Notifications
- Web-to-Print Storefronts
- Build-on-Demand Kits
- And more…
Of course, simply utilizing our software is only part of what H & H Graphics Group does each day when it comes to their fulfillment process. Another piece to that involves the marketing and sales efforts that they execute to bring on new clients.
I wanted to highlight one of the unique ways that H & H Graphics Group does this — with video!
In the video above, Mike Williams – a Publishing and Fulfillment Consultant at H & H Graphics Group – demonstrates some of the main features and benefits of their Fulfillment operations.
I think that this is a great way to tell a company’s story about a process that may not always be easy to comprehend.

3 Ways to Improve Warehouse Operations
When it comes to warehouse management, we all want to improve the flow of our daily operations. We want things to move faster and be more efficient. And of course, we need our numbers to be more accurate than ever before.
To do that successfully, having the right technology in place is certainly a major piece.
Here are three ways that a Warehouse Management software solution could you reach your goals:
Automatic Reorder Point Notifications
When it comes to the Marketing Supply Chain, a warehouse should ensure that they have enough inventory on the shelves at the right time for the right products.
To keep that process running smoothly, the customer should be notified immediately when inventory is running low. Also, the timing of the notification must not come when stock is at zero; rather, it should be a calculated process that gives them time to make a decision on a reorder quantity.
Warehouse management software can help to automate that for you!
It can:
- Automatically calculate how much stock is needed to maintain supply for a period of months
- Instantly generate email notifications and reminders to the customer and warehouse management
- Provide real-time reporting and updates to prevent unnecessary backorders
Better Fulfillment with Automated Picking
A warehouse management system should automate the inventory picking process. Rather than relying on the pickers to select products from locations that they determine to be the best fit, a Warehouse Management system should properly determine and present the ideal locations that should be picked from.
A manual location-picking process can be inefficient, risky, and a time-waster.
Real-Time Inventory Counts in the Order Management System
For a marketing supply chain to flow perfectly, there must be a mechanism to share data easily throughout each step of the process.
This certainly should include presenting real-time inventory numbers to the Sales Reps or other users that placing the initial orders.
By integrating those two pieces, or utilizing technology such as Web Services or other data feeds to share the inventory count, a warehouse can prevent frustration and confusion for all parties involved in the process.
———————————-
These are just a few of the ways that a Warehouse Management System can help your business to grow!
