ATLANTA, GA — Product sampling and branded merchandise giveaways are among the most widely used tactics in experiential marketing — but historically, they have also been among the least measurable.
Today, MoZeus, a leader in experiential marketing technology and program delivery for global brands, announced the launch of the SMART Order — a scalable engine built to transform traditional product sampling, custom merch, and product giveaway activations into structured, attribution-driven engagement programs.
The platform is the only solution purpose-built for brand activations, combining scalable enterprise operations, seamless consumer experience technology, secure data capture, and automated ROI reporting in a single integrated system.
"Sampling has always been incredibly effective, but historically it has been difficult to measure with precision," said Scott Sheppard, CTO and Founder of MoZeus. “The SMART Order platform turns high-volume product distribution into a data-driven experience — making it easier for consumers to engage, easier for teams to execute and scale, and easier for brands to measure the impact of every interaction.”
WHAT THE PLATFORM DOES
SMART Order connects three integrated systems into one:
- Campaign Management System
- Centralized control for marketing teams to launch campaigns in minutes, manage unlimited events and activation locations, coordinate multi-campaign scheduling, and set role-based admin permissions — all from a single dashboard.
2. In-Truck and On-Site Operations
- A simplified interface for event staff with one-tap event start and stop, live order management, instant inventory updates, and an intuitive experience requiring less than 15 minutes of training.
3. Consumer Experience
- A mobile-optimized, fully branded ordering and engagement interface — no app download required — featuring visual menus, personalized thank-you pages, digital coupon delivery, NPS ratings, real-time SMS and email order notifications, and personalized follow-up.
HOW IT WORKS
Consumers scan a QR code to launch a branded microsite where they can quickly register, engage with brand experiences, and place their order or customize their product. When their item is ready, they receive an automatic SMS or email notification to return and collect it, eliminating long wait lines. Every interaction is captured and connected to the broader engagement record.
For custom merch programs, the platform integrates DesignMy Lab, photo-op experiences, and generative AI design tools, allowing consumers to personalize their products on-site before submission. Optional content moderation is available for brand safety. Orders flow directly into an event staff queue for fulfillment and pickup management.
BEYOND SAMPLING: BUILT FOR MERCH, GIVEAWAYS, AND MULTI-PRODUCT PORTFOLIOS
The SMART Order platform is designed for the full range of high-volume product distribution programs — not just sampling. It supports:
- Custom Merchandise Design and Ordering
- Branded giveaway programs with personalization
- Multi-SKU product portfolios across event locations
- Retail and direct-to-cart integrations
- Digital coupon and offer delivery at the point of interaction
For brands managing large portfolios across multiple markets, the platform creates a unified infrastructure for every product touchpoint — standardizing programs, capturing consistent engagement data, and benchmarking performance across regions and campaigns.

CONNECTING EVERY PARTICIPANT IN THE ACTIVATION ECOSYSTEM
The SMART Order and Sampling Platform creates a continuous flow of information between the live activation and marketing teams by connecting:
- Consumers — who receive, customize, and engage with the product experience
- Brand Ambassadors — who distribute, track inventory, and manage fulfillment in real time
- Agency Teams — who oversee execution, campaign performance, and scaled coordination
- Marketing Executives — who analyze results, engagement trends, and program effectiveness
For agencies, the platform provides a direct way to demonstrate value by turning sampling and giveaway activations into a measurable engagement channel with clear data, insights, and performance outcomes.
BUILT FOR LARGE-SCALE PROGRAMS
The SMART Order and sampling platform is designed for the operational realities of large-scale experiential programs — festivals, multi-city brand tours, sports activations, auto shows, retail campaigns, and sampling tours where thousands of interactions may occur in a single day.
Built on more than 15 years of experiential program execution and engagement data, the platform provides the infrastructure brands and agencies need to manage high-volume product distribution efficiently while capturing consistent, measurable insights across every activation.
