“We know that our customer has better things to do than shop for workwear. We want to make it as easy for her as possible,” says Emily Code, MM’s Manager of Strategic Operations Initiatives. “We send her a Bento Box with customized selections from our collection and she can try them on, keep what she likes and return the rest, and only pay for the pieces she keeps.” Each customer is also given access to a dedicated stylist, and one-on-one interaction is highly encouraged.
With the goal of making each customer’s experience as seamless as possible, there was one particular place in MM.LaFleur’s customer journey where Code saw room for improvement: post-purchase. When a Bento Box shipped, the customer would get a confirmation email with a link to the UPS tracking info—and that was it. The experience was off-brand, and customers had to figure out how to track the journey by themselves if they didn’t have the information they needed. When there were tracking issues on the UPS site, stylists were bogged down with questions about deliveries instead of focusing on helping customers dress for work.
“The MM.LaFleur customer doesn’t have time for things like tracking down a package, or wondering if she’ll receive it in time for her big presentation on Friday. She shouldn’t have to worry about where her outfits are or when they’re going to get delivered.”

Code and a few other members of the MM.LaFleur team discovered Narvar because of their own personal online shopping experiences.

And since we were looking to improve our own tracking journey, we started to do some digging. That’s how we found Narvar.”
Implementing a branded tracking experience for MM.LaFleur customers turned out to be a fairly simple task, taking only a couple of weeks and minimal assistance from MM’s in-house engineering team. Code and the rest of the team began noticing a difference quickly. “The tracking pages are simple, on-brand, and beautiful. That visual aspect is very important to us.”
By partnering with Narvar to enhance the post-purchase experience, the MM.LaFleur team has seen several improvements:
Says Code of the team’s experience with Narvar, “We don’t even have to think about it— it’s the silent machine running in the background, and if it’s quietly humming along, that means it’s going well. For our customer, it’s a cleaner experience. She can access everything she needs, all in one place.”
