The Brief

The Distributors contacted Stimulus to produce promotional brochures and emails to be distributed to their members nationwide, including corner stores and petroleum companies. With their speciality being confectionery and grocery products, the client wanted a simple, timely and cost-effective solution to provide customised print and email solutions to their customers on a monthly basis.

The Outcome

Stimulus worked with The Distributors to design and developed a system with a custom-built PIM/DAM/CMS Price Busters Submission Module that would allow the client to not only collect data and information on offers, but also use flexible widgets to build customised monthly promotional brochures using W2P technology. The Submission Module also provides: • Flexible widgets to adjust price and products • Personalisation to their business needs • Personalisation for each member company with different products, price and promotions • Management of supplier prices and discount structures • Management of data including email and postal distribution lists • Summarising reports for management • Generating low resolution and print ready PDF brochures • System has the ability of generating personalised newsletters to be emailed out to individual customers
