Minuteman Press Franchise Owner Sherri Winslow Reflects on Over 20 Years in Palm Desert, CA and Joins President’s Club

Minuteman Press International Inc

Sherri Winslow is the owner of the Minuteman Press franchise in Palm Desert, CA since April of 2002. When her husband suddenly passed away in 2012, Sherri made the difficult decision to carry on as she took a more prominent role in the business as the sole owner and operator. Since then, Sherri has continued to build her business and in 2023 she was honored and acknowledged as one of the newest members of the Minuteman Press President’s Club. As she reflects on her accomplishments, Sherri shares her thoughts on 20-plus years and joining the President’s Club, keys to success and longevity, advice to others, and more. Celebrating 20 Years + Joining Minuteman Press President’s Club In 2022, Sherri celebrated 20 years of business ownership for Minuteman Press in Palm Desert. Today, in 2023, Sherri is now recognized as a member of the Minuteman Press International President’s Club for achieving yearly gross sales of over $1 million in 2022. Sherri shares, “Reflecting on our 20 years in business makes me realize that we were fortunate to partner with a good franchisor. Very few small businesses were able to make it through this period without a strong management and operational program to follow. That along with proper training and support from people that have been in the print business have made a huge impact. We will always be thankful for this.” She continues, “In 2023, I was proud to join the Minuteman Press International President’s Club. We have had fairly steady growth over the past 20 years. We started out making $19,000 in our first month after buying an existing business. In 2012, I lost my husband and I personally went from part-time to being the boss. My staff and Minuteman Press local support led by RVP Dan Byers helped me through one of the most difficult times in my life. It was a very foggy year but we made it. In the past few years, we were getting close to the $1 million milestone and we set that as our goal last year. My staff and I worked very hard to make sure we reached that goal. A lot of hard work and determination helped us get there.” When asked about her keys to success and growth, Sherri says, “Our longevity and success is primarily due to our staff and customer service. We have had many referrals through the years without asking. Now that we have been through the last training session, we plan to start asking for referrals through different channels. Other contributing factors to our success are related to our direct & internet marketing along with expanding our services & products over the years. We added wide format in the beginning, then signage, direct mail, and blueprints.” Sherri continues, “There are two other areas worth mentioning that I feel have been successful for us. The first has to do with Google Reviews, which has been a point of focus at regional meetings. At one meeting before the pandemic hit, there were around 50 people in attendance from many franchises in Southern California. We talked about how important Google Reviews are. We shared materials used to get reviews and it really blossomed here. I get a lot of new customers because they did a search and noticed how many good reviews we have.” She further shares, “Next is having good storefront and building signage. My shop is on the main highway that people travel from one end of the valley to the other. You can’t miss my shop because we went big and bold with the signage. I would do more, but the local laws don’t allow it. People always tell me they find me from our signage.” Printing Industry & Community/Franchise Support Sherri shares her insights on the printing industry today, saying, “Printing remains vital to businesses today because it provides a connection that stays with the consumer as opposed to the internet or email. Your printed materials end up in someone’s hand, which can make that lasting impression. How many people swipe left or delete emails without reading them? They will always take the time to look at a business card, postcard or holiday card that they receive.” In Palm Desert, Sherry says, “We are a small set of cities that hold large events and conventions. This brings an increase to our population that is about triple the amount during certain months of the year. Thanks to our community, our key growth areas have included signage, blueprints, convention printing and direct mail.” She adds, “We would not be where we are today without the local franchise support, training and the IT department that Minuteman Press International provides. We owe a lot of our success to this.” Rewards & Advice for Others As she looks back on over 20 years and reflects on the rewards of owning a business, Sherri says, “I would say my biggest personal reward is that I have been able to achieve everything that I have wanted to in my life. I can’t really ask for more personally except for time. My biggest professional reward has been reaching that $1 million goal and making the Minuteman Press President’s Club.” As for what advice she would give to others, Sherri shares, “Make sure you are active with the quote process and follow-up. Understand the difference between shoppers (who are getting 3 quotes from various vendors) and buyers. I recommend you give the customer a day to digest the quote they received, then follow up and make sure you answer their questions. Lastly, make sure you let them know you want to meet their price point or their budget constraints if you do… Again, the difference between a shopper and a buyer will make the difference on whether you will want to meet their budget constraints.” Minuteman Press in Palm Desert is located at 73-660 Highway 111, Palm Desert, CA 92260.

etaily lands $17.8M for commerce enablement platform powering global brands in Southeast Asia

etaily

The Southeast Asia (SEA) ecommerce market is growing rapidly and is projected to reach $230B (in gross merchandise value) by 2026. Helping brands around the world tap this opportunity, commerce platform enabler etaily is today announcing a $17.8M series A funding round as it scales its end-to-end ecommerce entry platform for brands to seamlessly engage audiences across SEA. The funding round was led by Chinese and Taiwanese PE firm SKS Capital and co-led by Singapore’s Pavilion Capital. Other investors are Japanese SBI ICCP Fund and Kaya Founders. The round also saw participation from the Magsaysay Family, Chan family, Foxmont Capital and JGDEV, the corporate venture capital arm of JG Summit Holdings. etaily’s cap-table also includes other renowned SEA retailers and conglomerates such as the Ayala Corporation, the Cheng family behind the department store chain Landmark, as well as renowned angel investors including Paulo Campos, former Co-Founder and CEO of Zalora and Anthony Oundijan, Managing Director and Senior Partner of Boston Consulting Group. Headquartered in the Philippines, etaily has quickly established itself as a pathway for brands seeking to sell their goods online across SEA. etaily is powered by a proprietary operating system for end-to-end commerce technology. etaily provides unique end-to-end distribution solutions in ecommerce and omnichannel, for global consumer brands in the region as well as its own brand portfolio. This ecosystem spans the entire customer journey, from development of lifestyle products through in-house branding capabilities to delivery to a local and regional customer base from etaily’s asset light warehouse network. Founded in 2020 by Alexander Friedhoff, former Zalora team member, etaily’s vision is to help global consumer brands selling online. Today, etaily has served more than 50 global consumer brands and processed over 10M orders on platforms such Lazada, Shopee and direct-to-consumer brand.com online stores. Gross sales at etaily in 2023 have tripled and are on track to reach $100M over the coming years. Its portfolio of exclusive brands currently comprises Levi’s, Crocs, Skechers and Reckitt, bringing its total brand count to more than 50, managed on +200 storefronts. Its own brands range from categories such as pets supplements, health, personal care and food and beverage. Alexander Friedhoff, Founder & CEO of etaily commented: "For the last three years, we've focused our passion into crafting something great at etaily – an all-encompassing commerce powerhouse. From the very birth of our lifestyle products to their swift delivery through our state-of-the-art operations ecosystem. Our unique digital approach sets us apart, making etaily the architect of digital brands and retail. Today, people in the region buying something online from the leading retail and digital brands such as Crocs, Levi’s, Skechers, Fila and many others - all of it is being powered by etaily’s infrastructure.” “With our unbeatable ecosystem, more than ever demanding online-first strategy, and adaptable digital operations, we're poised to transform retail in the Philippines and SEA. As the tides of e-commerce reshape the retail landscape, etaily's agile, fully digital platform promises brands a successful journey into the future.” Bain & Co has forecasted that the number of digital consumers in SEA is projected to hit 402 million by 2027, up from an estimated 370 million in 2022 with the Philippines leading the growth, followed by Vietnam and Thailand. The Philippines is now expected to grow the fastest in 2023 among developing economies in East Asia and Pacific according to an updated World Bank growth outlook for the region. These reports come hot on the heels of the Philippines being recognised as the fastest growing ecommerce market globally in 2023 having grown 25% year on year. There are several factors driving the ecommerce market in the region. Alexander Friedhoff added: “Unlike markets such as the US and Europe, where population growth is at a historic low — or in China’s case, declining — SEA’s consumer pool is expanding fast. In fact, the region’s working age population is set to grow by 23 million people by 2030, according to Bain & Co. and Meta’s 2022 SYNC SEA report. The Philippines already has the youngest population in SEA. At the same time, household incomes are expected to rise, with 51 million new high and upper-middle class households to emerge by 2030. This combination of a burgeoning working population and higher household incomes will lead to an uptick in consumption. SEA will add about 140 million new consumers by 2030, representing 16 percent of the world’s consumers.” Alexander Friedhoff added: “Given the current trajectory, with ecommerce as a percentage of total sales surging, SEA may well be poised to become the ‘next China’ in terms of e-commerce growth potential. Although SEA consists of several distinct markets without the same geographic cohesion and language uniformity as China, commerce platform companies such as etaily have made it convenient for brands to sell into multiple markets through localized operations, brand, data and technology capabilities.” etaily will deploy the fresh capital to deepen its presence in SEA, enhance its distribution platform for brands, and expand the brand portfolio including own brands and licenses of international lifestyle brands. In addition, further investments will be made into its proprietary technology stack including its operating system, data analytics and AI platform etaily clarity. SKS Capital founder Jack Chen commented: "We are excited to participate in the exciting consumer transformation taking place in the Philippines and SEA. We are dedicated to collaborating with outstanding and promising organizations that are poised for growth. etaily's asset-light strategy, along with their extensive knowledge of eCommerce, supply chain, and their utilization of data-driven insights to understand consumer behavior and demand, offer significant prospects for incorporating advanced omnichannel technology solutions into brand operations. This will enable substantial growth in the near future. Our brand portfolio is ready to be distributed by etaily.” About etaily Founded in 2020 and headquartered in the Philippines, etaily has quickly established itself as a pathway for brands seeking to sell their goods online across SEA. etaily is powered by a proprietary operating system for end-to-end commerce technology.

Heura Uses ToolsGroup for Digital Supply Chain Transformation to Support Global Expansion

ToolsGroup

ToolsGroup, a global leader in retail and supply chain planning and optimization software, is proud to announce it has been selected by Heura, a leader in next generation plant-based meat production, to help the company achieve the planning speed and accuracy necessary to transform its supply operations and meet the growing demands of its global expansion. “We started Heura in 2017 to empower people to participate in a more nutritious and sustainable food system. Over the past few years, it has become evident that people are ready for this new era of responsible food sourcing and production,” said Daniel Salrach Ruiz, Supply Chain Director. “With our operations expanding into markets throughout Europe, we realized the need to digitally transform our supply chain so we can keep pace with our increasingly complex network and exciting growth in customer demand. ToolsGroup has been an invaluable partner, helping us drive growth and achieve greater efficiency through automation while reducing inventory 10%.” As Heura’s business grew, so did the complexity of its supply chain. Heura began exploring solutions for digital supply chain transformation and ultimately chose ToolsGroup Service Optimizer 99+ (SO99+). ToolsGroup’s unique AI-powered demand modeling engine enables the planning team to better capture the impact of demand-shaping factors, interpret shifting demand signals for more accurate forecasts, and adapt quickly to Heura’s widening network.
