Challenge
Beach Bum Soapery struggled with a stagnant customer base and inefficient operational processes. Their existing website did not effectively showcase their unique products, and their labeling and packaging processes were time-consuming and inconsistent.

Operational Efficiency: By standardizing box sizes, Norse Consulting helped streamline the fulfillment process, reducing material waste and optimizing storage. This adjustment also facilitated the introduction of a free shipping option for eligible customers, making the products more attractive and accessible.
