Employee Special Delivery

Employee ”Day of Launch” Excitement Built for Launch of New Product

 

The Client 
  • International manufacturer with 400 brands, spanning 14 categories of home, personal care and foods products, introduced a new product in its detergent category under the company’s “Go Green” initiative
The Challenge
  • In partnership with the manufacturer’s ad agency, help gen­erate excitement among its 3,500 employees for the introduction of a new product tagged with the company’s “Go Green” initiative message
  • Timing of project execution to match launch of major advertising campaign
  • Source greenhouse near client corporate headquarters, capable of planting 3,500 plants into the caps of laundry detergent in very short turn
  • Sticker 3,500 lids
  • Hand-deliver plants safely in late fall in east coast climate
  • Unexpected challenge - caps ended up being much smaller than anticipated and delivered late requiring sourcing new plant that would fit
The Solution
  1. Source a greenhouse partner within a short distance of client location
  2. Coordinate effort to process caps and ship to greenhouse, pot and deliver 3,500 plants to employees on the day the ad campaign broke
  3. Unexpected challenge - source new plant, pot and tag in one day and deliver the next by 8 AM
 
The Results
  1. Skybridge® Promotion Fulfillment secured greenhouse partner within short distance of client headquarters and coordinated effort start to finish
  2. Major time constraints were placed on Skybridge® Promotion Fulfillment with a delay in shipment of caps - Skybridge® Promotion Fulfillment was able to compress timeline to process caps and ship to greenhouse and turn potting in one day with delivery the next
  3. When lids arrived, they were too small for plant and dirt and the weather turned cold - required sourcing a hardier plant and additional labor to meet delivery deadline
  4. Project delivered on time and on budget through well-coordinated effort and agile, responsive partners
