Managing branded merchandise and employee swag across multiple locations can be a logistical headache. For teams handling remote or multi-location organizations, inefficiencies in swag distribution drain time, increase costs, and lead to frustration. Instead of focusing on strategic goals, businesses often find themselves caught up in operational tasks that are timely, repetitive, and expensive. Yikes.
At Axomo, we streamline the entire process for you, ensuring swag reaches employees efficiently while eliminating common logistical roadblocks. Here’s how we solve the biggest pain points in swag distribution.
Some of the Biggest Pain Points in Swag Distribution
1. Managing swag distribution across multiple locations is time-consuming.
Manually managing swag distribution across various offices, warehouses, or remote teams is time-intensive. Tracking shipments, collecting and allocating multiple addresses, coordinating deliveries, and handling multiple distribution points from one touchpoint can overwhelm even the most organized teams.
Axomo’s Solution: Our platform automates swag fulfillment by centralizing orders and shipments. With a streamlined system, businesses can distribute swag effortlessly, reducing time spent on logistics and ensuring timely deliveries.
2. Coordinating with vendors leads to logistical bottlenecks.
Working with multiple vendors often creates inconsistencies, shipping delays, and a lack of real-time visibility into inventory levels. This can result in stock shortages or excess inventory that goes unused.
Axomo’s Solution: Axomo eliminates the need for excessive vendor coordination by offering a single, integrated platform. Order from dozens of brands, different types of customization techniques, etc, and we handle all of the vendors for you. Orders are managed seamlessly, providing full transparency and reducing the chances of bottlenecks.
3. Remote teams don’t receive swag efficiently or consistently.
When teams work remotely or across different regions, ensuring they receive company swag in a timely and consistent manner (let alone feel appreciated!) can be difficult. Disjointed processes lead to employees feeling disconnected from the brand and company culture.
Axomo’s Solution: Our platform allows businesses to create custom storefronts where employees can order their swag directly. This ensures every team member, regardless of location, receives their items efficiently and without unnecessary delays. Even more, they feel appreciated, seen, and can personalize their gifting experience to their preferences and location.
4. High shipping costs due to fragmented distribution processes usually arise.
Shipping swag in separate batches or from multiple vendors drives up costs and extends delivery times. Companies often spend more than necessary on fragmented shipments without a cohesive distribution strategy.
Axomo’s Solution: By consolidating orders and leveraging strategic shipping partners, Axomo reduces overall shipping costs. Our system ensures the most efficient fulfillment centers are used to minimize expenses and delivery times. We also offer warehousing options, to even further expedite the process of ordering routine shipments in your business or employee onboarding cycle.
5. Delays in delivering swag result in poor employee experiences.
Employees waiting too long for their swag, and teams waiting too long for necessary branded promo, can feel disengaged or undervalued. Whether it’s onboarding kits, recognition gifts, or event merchandise, delays diminish the impact of these items.
Axomo’s Solution: With our automated fulfillment process and real-time tracking, employees receive their swag on time. This improves overall satisfaction, fosters a stronger company culture, and enhances the employee experience. We delivered over 200,000 items early last year, and are excited to bring that number up even more!
