Case Study | Money Shop
Meads started working in partnership with The Money Shop in 2002, storing and distributing POS material and leaflets, when they were a fairly small business with around 90 stores nationwide. Their growth over the past 4 years has seen them expand to 170 stores in the UK and has seen them utilise more of Meads services. We now carry out all their direct mailing activity, promotional kit collations, promotional merchandise storage and fulfilment as well as still sending out their POS and leaflets.
In 2005, Meads approached the management at The Money Shop with an idea for streamlining their stock management and ordering activity. From this meeting the Money Shop Online Ordering System was developed. This is a simple e-shop facility which is linked directly to our live stock management system which means that up to the second stock figures are shown online giving decision makers at The Money Shop accurate order and stock data. Orders can be placed by any member of staff with authorisation using a shopping cart facility and the system immediately updates the stock online and the website and emails the Account Manager at Meads with the order for processing.
To date in 2006, Meads have fulfilled over 2000 orders for marketing material and carried out 4 major mailings each of over 50,000 pieces to customers and staff nationwide.
Meads also store exhibition stands and displays for The Money Shop, and organise the distribution and collection of these to various exhibitions, student fairs and store openings around the country.
