How Unleashed Increased evre. Volume Without the Workload 

Before Unleashed, the team used spreadsheets to keep on top of their inventory. However, with large spreadsheets, evre. were losing visibility, leading to errors and stopping them from being on top of their orders.

Onboarding 

Unleashed was recommended to the team as a cost-effective system that would allow evre. to grow. The team were buying packaging, assembling bottles and formulations and moving into a 3PL warehouse. They needed an inventory management system that could manage every touchpoint in their supply chain – Unleashed ticked all the boxes. 

“Everyone was saying that it was intuitive and easy to learn and not too complex, but I think the main thing is that it really filled a middle ground for us, and it really tailored to our needs.” – Matt Oliver, Head of Operations.  

Matt Oliver, Head of Operations, took advantage of the Unleashed Academy to get to grips with the software. Because of the training resources he could access, Matt didn’t require any support to navigate the software and was able to see the data he required straight away. 

BI Vision

BI Vision has allowed the team to get a quick snapshot of which products are performing, sales numbers, and compare it to previous weeks, months and years. Because evre. use a lean team model, having easy access to vital data to share with the wider team has been important.  

“When it came to Monday, I would be presenting back to the leadership team, [highlighting] the performance for the previous week. I would then be spending a couple of hours every Monday morning creating a dashboard that drills home the performance of the business so that they can then get on with their day, because they don't want to be stuck in the numbers. They want to be making decisions, looking forward, and getting on with their normal job. 

I can see how BI Vision is going to be that tool that will enable me to communicate the performance to the wider business, in a language they can understand.” – Matt Oliver, Head of Operations

Integrations

evre. have a range of plug-in and play integrations in Unleashed, from Xero to SPS Commerce. Matt can easily manage stock and where it lives from one central hub, reducing manual work by knowing his data is accurate.  

“The shipment comes back into Unleashed, and the status of the shipment changes to 100% shipped. Then I know that it's on its way, and I click complete. That whole order is just done in one smooth motion, where in the past that would take me well over half an hour, an hour for that entire process to happen.” – Matt Oliver, Head of Operations. 

The integration with Amazon and Shopify allowed the team to build out the Direct-to-Consumer (D2C) side of the business. Soon, evre. will be adding TikTok shop to their list of integrations.

“Everything that's happening in the physical world is reflected in the system, so that Unleashed becomes that single source of the truth. It's been super easy to adjust to that and take a model that we were using in New Zealand and apply it to bigger numbers, bigger scale. At the end of the day, they almost just feel like numbers on a page - the volume's increased, but the workload hasn't.” – Matt Oliver, Head of Operations. 

The evre. team are looking to continue their expansion into the US by adding to their list of nationwide retailers within the next year, focusing on brand recognition and getting products off the shelf.

Expanding Unleashed 

Because of their experience with Unleashed, the team are looking to add to their Unleashed inventory management software to combat challenges, such as better understanding their rate of sales within a store or which SKUs are going to sell best.  

“As my data grows, I would like to lean on Unleashed to take me to that next level, particularly around reporting and forecasting.” – Matt Oliver, Head of Operations.

As evre. expanded from New Zealand into major US retailers, spreadsheets could no longer support their growing inventory complexity. By switching to Unleashed, the team gained real-time visibility and a single source of truth - allowing them to scale sales without increasing workload.
