Promotional handling at MRM comes in many forms; from direct mail to consumers, warehousing and logistics of promotional items and sourcing of goods through to managing a distribution center for a sales promotion agency working on a major on pack promotion. Handling hundreds of sales promotion campaigns each year, MRM delivers multi channel fulfilment and logistics solutions to brands and agencies.

Each promotion in business is important in its own right – whether it requires promotional handling for B2C consumers or a brand’s B2B customers. The branding of product will usually involve a sales promotion agency working directly with a brand whilst the promotional handling house such as MRM will be contracted directly with the brand in many instances to provide control and ensure agreed standards in customer handling are maintained.

Promotional handling is a skilled market sector in its own right; it requires direct marketing experience and knowledge of brand guidelines to manage customer expectations whilst delivering a cost effective solution. If you have an outsourcing requirement for 2011, you should be talking to MRM now to seee how we can provide fulfillment management services for your promotional handling needs.

IMG 1087cr 150x150 Royal Wedding   response handlingWow – so there’s going to be a Royal Wedding next year for Prince William and his bride-to-be Princess Catherine…at MRM we’ve already spotted commemorative coins launched at the speed of light to cash (pardon the pun!) in on the event – how quick are other brands going to be to get to market with their royal-themed merchandise and consumer promotions??

We’re thrilled – a Royal wedding will generate great tourism opportunities for the UK and a general feeling of excitement – so if you’re a brand planning a Royal-themed campaign, give us a ring (diamond or telephone) and we’ll give you a commemorative 10% discount off your next campaign* (excluding carriage/postage as unfortunately the Royal Mail aren’t as excited about this as us!).

Ring Julie or Claire on 084499 12345 to talk through your response handling campaigns and know that if you’re planning on sending out Royal memorabilia, or other prizes – MRM will make sure it gets there safely and on time!
