How Dasseti Scaled Global Events with Us

CASE STUDY

Background

Dasseti is a FinTech software platform supporting investors and investment managers with due diligence. With four global offices in London, New York, Chicago, Hong Kong, and a presence in Australia, the company runs around 20 events annually—including major industry conferences and intimate client gatherings. The marketing team consists of just three people managing everything from brand and lead generation to event execution.

The Challenge

Managing event logistics internally became a major pain point for Dasseti’s small, remote marketing team.

  • No storage space: As a virtual-first business, Dasseti lacked physical storage for event materials. Banners and branded giveaways ended up in team members’ spare rooms.

  • Complex global shipping: Coordinating shipments internationally was time-consuming and stressful. Delivery windows were tight, customs processes unpredictable, and shipments often arrived late—or not at all.

  • Escalating costs: Last-minute local sourcing of branded items at events, such as in the Cayman Islands, led to budget overruns.

  • Resource strain: Event logistics consumed weeks of planning, distracting the marketing team from core tasks like strategy and customer engagement.

The Solution

Dasseti partnered with MyMedia to take the logistics burden off their team. Here’s how we transformed their approach to events:

  • Global Warehousing: MyMedia stores all Dasseti’s branded items—roller banners, lanyards, merchandise—in our global warehouse network.

  • End-to-End Logistics: From shipping to customs clearance, MyMedia manages delivery to and from event venues anywhere in the world.

  • OnDemand Portal: Dasseti can check inventory, track shipments, and approve artwork in real time through MyMedia’s portal.

  • Dedicated Account Management: A dedicated account manager provides rapid responses, stock checks, and sourcing of new branded items at competitive prices.

The Outcomes

The results have been game-changing for Dasseti:

  • Time Savings: The marketing team no longer spends weeks on logistics. They focus on strategy and audience engagement instead of chasing couriers.

  • Cost Efficiency: Warehousing costs are significantly lower than expected, and bulk ordering plus MyMedia’s supplier network has reduced branded item costs.

  • Reliability: A 99.8% on-time delivery rate means no more missed deadlines. Even challenging scenarios—like cross-border shipping from the US to Canada—are handled seamlessly.

  • Stress-Free Events: Everything arrives on time, in good condition, and is collected afterward—even if items are accidentally left behind.

  • Scalable Model: Dasseti now has a logistics partner that grows with them, supporting events of any size, anywhere.

MyMedia has completely changed the way we handle event logistics. It takes a huge headache away from the marketing team. I would wholeheartedly recommend them to any business with a small team and a big global remit.
