Over the years, one thing I’ve been surprised to learn is just how rare it is to find a company that does what OnFulfillment does.
By that, I mean offering a full complement of marketing fulfillment services—everything from printing, pick-and-pack, and kitting and assembly to warehousing and storage, shipping, promotional merchandise, and event management, among other services.
Of course, it’s not difficult to find vendors who offer those individual services; a simple online search of any of those phrases will produce scores of companies that fit the bill. What’s unusual is to find one that offers all those services under one roof. That’s what makes OnFulfillment so unique.
Our interactions with customers bear this out. Roughly 80% of our new business comes from companies looking for more comprehensive marketing fulfillment services. In our introductory meetings, they tell us that while they are pleased with the quality of the services they are receiving from their existing vendors, the scope of those services is extremely limited. Anything above and beyond the initial request is treated as an imposition. While the vendor may step up and offer to help, they make it clear to the customer that they are doing them a favor—and they charge a significant premium for their effort.
For instance, a customer producing corporate branded merchandise for an upcoming direct marketing campaign could potentially have to enlist the services of three separate vendors to complete the project: one to produce the materials, one to assemble the kits to be mailed, and a third to handle shipping. A fourth might even be required if special packaging needs to be printed and the kitting and assembly vendor isn’t equipped to handle it.
Likewise, a company looking to expand its presence at industry events like trade shows, seminars, and conferences might have to engage with multiple vendors to produce the necessary signage and decorations, print specialized collateral for each event, and store and ship materials to and from venues. And that doesn’t take into account the need to effectively oversee and manage these resources, scheduling their use to ensure nothing is overbooked.
While finding the necessary help isn’t a problem, the overhead involved can be expensive, not to mention exhausting. For companies that only need, say, a promotional merchandise vendor or a printer, then such a piecemeal approach makes sense. For those who want or need more help and prefer to centralize it, or don’t have the internal resources or budget to handle it themselves, a more comprehensive approach is the answer.
