By applying best practices across their marketing supply chains three Fortune 500 companies in the Quick Serve Restaurant, Financial and Automotive industries saved millions of dollars in variable costs. You can read their success stories below.
$10M in Print Reduction through Profiling System
A large quick serve restaurant chain headquartered in California engaged with Archway to implement onsite account management that created a franchisee profiling system to capture individual location POS/POP needs. By utilizing Archway’s profiling system, Archway’s onsite team was able to reduce the corporate franchise print spend from $20M to $10M while supporting a 17% increase in franchise locations. The profiling system determines exact quantities that need to be printed, so franchisees only receive what they need when they need it - eliminating excess print and freight costs.
Reduced Transportation Costs by 55%
Archway streamlined the marketing fulfillment process for one large national bank by consolidating marketing pushes to branch locations with individual branch marketing requests into a single-branded package. The consolidated packages are sent once a week in a custom box that branch managers expect on a certain day and that are easily recognizable. This change has reduced transportation costs by 55% annually.
Recommendation Creates Savings of $500,000
Archway’s account management team spearheaded an initiative with their client’s business owners to reduce storage costs through elimination of aged materials. This was accomplished through utilization of an auto-scrap email that allows the business owner clear visibility to exactly how much it is costing to warehouse aged material. Material identified for scrap resulted in an initial cost savings of $500,000.
