Challenge: Haglöfs' quest for efficient content management

 
As Haglöfs continued to expand its reach globally, the communication department was confronted with limitations that hindered the efficient management of extensive content meant for various seasons.
 
Sharing marketing materials externally was also a cumbersome process mostly orchestrated with SharePoint. As new marketing campaigns were launched, they recognized the need to phase out their SharePoint-based asset management and find a more efficient way to distribute files to customers, partners, and dealers. This was vital for maintaining strong relationships with stakeholders.
 

Solution: Choosing the right marketing tools

With Pickit's capabilities, Haglöfs was able to implement a smart and simple marketing administrative structure.  

The marketing team decided to combine Pickit Brand module and Pickit Boards to structure their content with smart and easy access. The content was able to be easily categorized and different access permissions for users were provided. This versatile setup ensures that assets are precisely organized and accessible to the right people, a critical element in maintaining brand integrity. 

This increased hierarchy allowed for better organization and management of their marketing assets. The user-friendly interface ensured smoother access to resources, offering an efficient solution to their previous limitations.  

Integration with platforms like Dropbox was a vital component of Haglöfs' file management transformation. Pickit's ability to integrate with various tools ensured a smooth and consistent workflow. This compatibility allowed Haglöfs' marketing teams to work with familiar tools, all while maintaining centralized asset management. The transition was seamless, and employees could continue their tasks using tools they were already accustomed to.
 

"Pickit is my go-to platform for all things marketing. It's become an indispensable part of my daily routine. I always have Pickit open these days because it's so easy. If I don't have Pickit open, I feel like I'm missing out on a powerful tool that makes my job so much more efficient."

Outcome: “I don’t need to be the brand police officer”

The ability to measure this growth is attributed to one of Pickit's standout features – its comprehensive statistics.
