Branded Gift Solutions with An Online Pop-Up Shop

Branded Gift Solutions with An Online Pop-Up Shop

Pinnacle Promotions created an adaptive online pop-up shop gift redemption program for Milwaukee Tool.

Milwaukee Tool, a world-class leader in designing and manufacturing power tools for the professional trades, needed assistance with gearing up for its quarterly sales meeting. The Milwaukee team needed an adaptive online shop solution to ensure the meeting had cohesive branding and created excitement.

The Challenge

Quarterly sales meetings are essential in evaluating wins and building cohesion in brand strategy. That’s why Milwaukee Tool wanted to offer attendees of its quarterly sales meeting a branded merchandise kit accessible only to confirmed attendees. These kits needed a range of selections for both men and women — all at no charge to the end recipient. 

The Solution

Pinnacle stepped in to ensure the sales meeting was a hit! The Pinnacle team curated four themed merchandise kits and hosted them on a custom online pop-up shop. All attendees of the event were pre-authorized on the shop platform to safeguard access to registered users only. The shop was then customized with parameters that limited the shopping cart to one kit per user. 

The pop-up shop technology gathered product quantities and address information during the live ordering window — allowing the Milwaukee Tool team to sit back while we fulfilled the orders.

The Result

The online pop-up shop collected and processed over 1,900 order submissions for Milwaukee Tool! After the ordering window was closed, the Pinnacle warehousing team went to work on packing and shipping each order straight to each attendee’s address!

Case Study: Outfitting the National Team With Online Portal Technology

Case Study: Outfitting the National Team With Online Portal Technology

Crash Champions utilized online portal technology to help ease the acquisition transition and outfit its newly acquired national team.

Crash Champions, a national auto body organization centralized throughout the Midwest, recently acquired Service King, another auto body repair company with over 40 years of service in the industry. Crash Champions needed a streamlined solution to outfitting and welcoming its newest team members.

The Challenge 

After acquiring Service King, Crash Champions needed a user-friendly solution to help collect the necessary details to adequately welcome its newest team members with branded apparel. These details included the type of apparel kit required, the sizes of the team members, and shipping addresses at no cost to the end user. 

The Solution 

The Pinnacle Promotions team knew just how to solve this challenge. Crash Champions was assigned a dedicated team to create a custom online portal, to collect all order details across the former Service King locations. The online portal included a branded homepage with brand-approved color details, a secure login page — only accessible with a predetermined password and apparel mockups to help create the custom site feel. 

Each location manager was given access to the shop link to select uniform sizes, quantities and apparel kit types needed for their specific location — which all could be done in a matter of minutes! Managers then received an email confirmation of their order with the necessary details.

By partnering with Pinnacle Promotions and utilizing the online portal technology, Crash Champions featured five apparel kit options tailored to each employee within the organization. During the two-week ordering window, the online portal collected 975 individual orders, totaling around 60,000 pieces of apparel to be distributed across the U.S.

Case Study: Expo Preparations for Liebherr

Case Study: Expo Preparations for Liebherr

A case study on how Pinnacle helped Liebherr prepare and promote for 2023 CONEXPO-CON/AGG.

Liebherr, one of the largest construction equipment manufacturers in the world, partnered with Pinnacle Promotions to help prepare for the 2023 CONEXPO-CON/AGG trade show. Liebherr needed custom apparel to outfit their team for the event and a streamlined way to make these apparel items accessible to the entire global team.

The Challenge 

CONEXPO-CON/AGG is North America’s largest international construction trade show and only takes place every three years. The trade show showcases the latest products and services within the construction industry, with registered attendance of around 130,000+ professionals flooding Las Vegas for a week to find the next big thing. With such a large-scale turnout, Liebherr wants to ensure that its presence is felt and the trade show team has a uniform presence.

The Solution

Liebherr turned to Pinnacle Promotions for help. The Pinnacle account managers began planning six months in advance to source and secure the best products to showcase the Liebherr brand and drive booth traffic. By getting ahead of the game, Pinnacle Promotions was able to get the quantities needed for the large attendee turnout. They also created custom overseas options to help drive a cost-effective approach to such high amounts of product. 

The Result

Liebherr is fully prepared for the CONEXPO-CON/AGG months before the event even takes place! The Liebherr team is outfitted in custom-designed apparel and equipped with perfectly branded giveaways for the big week. And the best part? With the Pinnacle team’s early planning and creativity, Liebherr received a large number of products at the lowest cost-effective price.

Strategic Consolidation with MyPromo Enterprise

Strategic Consolidation with MyPromo Enterprise

This case study shows how MyPromo Enterprise modernized Sunoco’s merchandising experience. 

After 130 years of fueling Americans, Sunoco knows it has a diverse audience with differing product needs. That’s where MyPromo Enterprise comes in. The smooth store integration, with detailed reporting, helped Sunoco streamline the user experience. 

The Challenge

Sunoco was running up against a complex problem. At the time, the organization was managing five different store sites for its five different audiences. These audiences include retail, employee, administrative, distributor and race fuels. 

Each store had its own pricing, inventory and purchasing rules. As the stores gained popularity, managing each one became more difficult. And comprehensive reporting was nearly impossible. 

The Solution

Sunoco was assigned a dedicated account team to help figure out the best solution for its company stores. Using extensive store-management experience and coding wizardry, the Pinnacle Promotions team created a detailed plan of action and implementation. 

From here, the team began consolidating the five stores into one easily accessible site and integrated the Sunoco Shop experience for its varying audiences. The store views changed with different pricing and specific purchasing rules depending on the visitor.

The Result

After this integration, the user and administrative experiences are now simple and smooth. Sunoco can access a detailed reporting dashboard to help track its different audiences. In this dashboard, the organization can also set specific rules to cater to these users.

Case Study: FLEETCOR

About:

FLEETCOR is a leading independent global provider of specialized payment products and services. It serves 500,000 commercial with millions of cardholders across the United States, Canada, Mexico, Europe, Africa and Asia.

The Challenge: Time and Quality

FLEETCOR was given the last minute authorization to order products for their upcoming Sales Incentive Trip, only four weeks away and in the Dominican Republic. They were looking for high quality products that met their branding guidelines but were on a tight deadline.

The Solution:

Since time was of the essence, Pinnacle created an IdeaKit in less than two hours, recommending products that historically have been successful and would deliver internationally in a timely manner. FLEETCOR selected six items for their event: The Starphire Glass Award, 5”x 7” Embossed Tropical Frames, Superior Weight Colored Beach Towels, Suncare Kits with added lip balm, the Alta Triton Water Bottle and the Riviera Striped Tote.

Fleetcor Water Bottle
Since this order was shipping internationally, Pinnacle worked directly with a major global logistics provider and the client’s hotel to ensure delivery would go smoothly. We learned, however, after the items had landed in the Dominican Republic, that the logistics company was unable to make the delivery. Despite the significant setback, we worked with concierge at the hotel and hired a taxi to pick up the packages from the airport and drive three hours to make the delivery. The items arrived at the recipients’ hotel rooms that evening.

The Result:

FLEETCOR was extremely pleased with the outcome of their order, despite one item not clearing customs. FLEETCOR declared this to be the nicest collection of products that they had ever given away at a sales incentive trip.
