In 2011, Jeremiah Newton couldn\u2019t find a wax on the market to tame his trademark handlebar mustache, so he decided to create his own grooming product. Woodsman Mustache Wax captivated his shaggy friends with its impeccable hold and cedar scent. The Bearded Bastard was born in Austin, TX and magic has ensued ever since.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Today, they make men’s products for beards, mustaches, and hair along with distinct colognes. They also sell handcrafted bags, apparel, and accessories. The company is passionate about doing things the right way and use natural ingredients. When they looked for an ecommerce shipping solution, they wanted a platform that could stand up to the rough daily use their products could.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Expanding their product reach, they started selling on new sales channels but nothing was automated at the time. \u201cIt was cumbersome and all over the place,\u201d says Lauren Winfield, Wholesale and Business Development Manager. \u201cWe had to write down dimensions and create custom labels for each order.\u201d They use Stitch Labs for multi-channel inventory management. They needed an efficient shipping solution that would connect to their platforms. \u201cIt was kind of a no-brainer to switch over to Shipstation. It had all the right integrations that work consistently and efficiently together,\u201d Lauren says. \u201cThe Stitch Labs integration and automation rules completely changed how we ship.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cWe cut our shipping time down by funneling every order through Stitch Labs to Shipstation and then using batching and presets.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
\u201cBatching helped us become more efficient,\u201d Lauren says. \u201cWe’re now saving money and increasing efficiency in offering more shipping carrier options.\u201d By offering multiple carrier services, like DHL, The Bearded Bastard has increased their global reach. \u201cShipstation is so international friendly,\u201d says Lauren. Something as simple as including photos on packing slips has greatly reduced fulfillment errors for the team. \u201cWe’ve cut our shipping time in half since using Shipstation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bettering the Brand<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Jeremiah travels internationally to evangelize brand ambassadors all around the world. ShipStation helps him with the logistics with easy ways to project the costs of international shipments. \u201cThe shipping calculator is fantastic for a getting a quick estimate,” says Lauren. “It helps us make decisions on what carrier and service to ship our packages.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cOur shipping process has improved from being able to customize packing slips to improving efficiency in the actual shipping process.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Branding features in ShipStation have helped tidy up their growth journey. \u201cWe love the customized packing slips as well. We have two brands currently and by using the automation rules, we can send customized branding to each customer.\u201d With a growing cult status around the world, The Bearded Bastard continues to flourish. For a brand that doesn\u2019t settle for substitutions, they\u2019re loyal to ShipStation knowing that it will help keep their business sharp and sleek.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
