2. The PromoB2B Global Tools and functionality have been developed because we have listened to customers and potential
new clients as to their problems around promotional merchandise. Here are a few comments that we hear on a regular basis!
Do you recognise anything here?
Trans-Atlantic Buyer
“Our company currently has an online store on the other side of the Atlantic so when I order I have to wait up to three weeks for the
goods to arrive. I also have to pay duty and high carriage charges.”
Marketing Manager
“The pens we bought locally for our exhibition were poor quality and our logo was printed incorrectly.”
Purchasing Manager
“I found that four people ordered the same product last month on four separate purchase orders – we could have saved money
if we had combined the orders.”
Brand Manager
“I’m concerned that the promotional items we bought recently may have been produced in a factory employing child labour –
this could severely damage our brand.”
Marketing Executive
“I can never get hold of our own logos and artwork in the correct format, and our agency charges a fortune each time I request them.”

6. The PromoB2B Modules
PromoB2B is a menu based system which can be customised for clients
by enabling or disabling modules at the company/division/user levels.
Group Buying
Where several departments or locations are interested in grouping together to buy the same product, this can reduce the cost by everyone buying at the higher quantity rate. The Group Buying
facility will share the information and automatically compile the group order.
Artwork Folder (Digital Asset Management)
PromoB2B provides a central location to store your company’s artwork, logos and images as well as artwork guidelines if available. The logos are held in JPEG, EPS and PDF formats.
The images are easily accessible and users can download any file for use elsewhere.
View Completed Jobs
PromoB2B will store information on all previous jobs produced for your company. This will include a photo and description of the product, who ordered it, the price, quantity and order date.
This will assist in reordering or just to get some ideas for a new requirement.
Online Stock
Your local distributor can run a stocked merchandise scheme for users in the region. The benefits of this are: cost savings, 24hr stock availability, no minimum quantity per order and
consistency of branding.
Made to Order Catalogue
This feature enables companies to authorise a range of promotional items without committing to stock, and for users it is quick and easy to order approved products. Working in conjunction
with your Marketing and Purchasing departments, we can create a virtual catalogue of branded items. These items will have a picture of the product including logo, they will be priced in
quantity breaks and with lead time, then produced to order.
Discounted General Catalogue
Each regional supplier will host a general catalogue of promotional items, in excess of 1000 products, offered at guaranteed discount prices.
Brochure Distribution
Along with promotional items, many clients need to distribute brochures, for example to their sales forces. The PromoB2B facility enables users to order both on the same site at the same
time, saving time and distribution costs.
