The Reality
When satisfying an order, the promotional products distributor is looking for a simplified solution. So, in a time-starved world they often choose a supplier who offers in-house decoration. Unfortunately, that eliminates the opportunity for greater product selection, depth of inventory and can create decoration inconsistencies to the final product.
Rush orders are becoming more and more of an every day occurrence. You need to be able to process orders as quickly as possible so you can get onto the next sale. Consolidating your purchase orders can be a time consuming process and a major headache.
Morales Embroidery’s typical procedures for receiving non-SanMar PSST orders:
- Receive shipments from UPS, FedEx & multiple LTL freight couriers
- Sort boxes by supplier
- Sort supplier boxes by contract client
- Sort client boxes by purchase order.
- Go through boxes and match garments to purchase orders. This can be very time consuming because multiple orders may be in the same box. Determining garment styles from one another can be a challenge as not all garments have their style numbers on the garments so it becomes a sort of guessing game and ultimately allowing room for human error.
As you can see, there are far too many steps and touch points to get an order to the production floor. This causes delays and other order processing inefficiencies.
The Solution
When faced with the reality, Pack Separately. Ship Together. offers a real market advantage. The SanMar PSST program eliminates the need for bulk ordering. Each purchase order can be placed separately and then strategically consolidated into a daily shipment to Morales Embroidery, at no cost to you.
This service solution frees you from the hassle of trying to meet SanMar’s $200 free freight minimum and makes the reconciliation process easier for your accounting team. Both provide valuable incentives that help your bottom line.
For Morales Embroidery Design, the boxes arrive from SanMar on one daily truck with orders individually packaged and pre-sorted by purchase order. This enables Morales Embroidery to quickly match your purchase orders with the corresponding SanMar garments and get them to the production floor as quickly as possible. This eliminates incorrectly sorted garments and ensures greater order accuracy.
How It Works
After you have been approved for an account by Morales Embroidery , here’s what you do:
- Send your artwork & PO to Morales Embroidery .
- Order your quality blanks from SanMar and have them drop-shipped to Morales Embroidery via the PSST method. (Early order cut off 1pm).
- Receive your final decorated product directly from Morales Embroidery, or let Morales Embroidery blind drop-ship the order directly to your customer.
