Silly Sentiments specialise in on trend personalised greeting cards & funky gifts – from mugs to stationery to birthday accessories they’ve got it all!
Far from stationary
Silly Sentiments were growing rapidly which meant that their processed needed to speed up if they were to keep on top of the increasing orders being placed.
Their current printer also didn’t have the capability to print high quality, full colour cards which is something they required.
Being a solely online business, it was critical that Silly Sentiment’s systems continuously stay up and running without fault. If for any reason systems were to fail the business would come to a complete halt (which is not what you want!)
That is why it was so important that any changes to business processes needed to be seamless and perfectly fitting for the business.
‘A4’ Effort
Consequently, the DNS Team worked closely with Vicki at Silly Sentiments to ensure that they completely understood the business before any changes were made.
“DNS are very knowledgeable, a competitor tried to sell me a machine that was not suitable for my business, DNS would never try to sell you something that wasn’t right for your business”
DNS automated a workflow that allows the business to add multiple cards onto one sheet which not only saves on materials but also improves efficiency and speed. The automation follows through to the finishing depart where the cards are creased and cut with no user intervention! They’re then ready to be sent to their recipient.
Side note: Automation is Managing Director, Vicki’s favourite feature!
Always on hand to help
Change within your business processes can be daunting and like many others the Silly Sentiments Team had their concerns when it came to introducing new equipment and workflows.
“I hate change but with DNS’s encouragement and reassurance that it would lead to a more efficient business, it put my mind at rest. I am constantly in talks with my account manager as my business evolves”
