We have all been there: Your central campaign team creates a brilliant campaign. But by the time it reaches your field offices, franchisees, and local markets, it's either diluted, delayed, or completely off-brand. Sound familiar?
This is where GraFx Experience transforms everything. Unlike traditional brand portals that limit local teams to tweaking business cards or downloading pre-made flyers, GraFx Experience is a self-service environment that empowers local teams to create complete, multichannel campaigns – all while staying perfectly on-brand.
Most self-service solutions offer 90% ready assets with minimal customization options. GraFx Experience breaks this mold entirely. Built on CHILI GraFx's visual content automation platform, it allows central teams to provide the master artwork, with guidelines and restrictions baked into the template, while local teams generate infinite campaign variations tailored to their specific audiences, stores, and promotional channels.
The difference is profound. Instead of requesting design resources from headquarters or settling for generic materials, local teams can create fully localized and personalized campaign assets that fit their market perfectly.
Shopper marketing influences buying decisions in-store, guiding shoppers from entry to checkout. A CPG brand uses GraFx Experience to let retailers customize materials for key moments – posters at the entrance, visuals in aisles, info at the shelf, and offers at the point of purchase. Local teams adjust products, pricing, and formats while brand rules keep everything clear, on-brand, and tailored to local needs. The result: every message fits the moment and moves the shopper forward.
Regional sales teams access the campaign portal to create territory-specific sales materials, incorporating local case studies, pricing, contact information, and legal disclaimers – all generated from centrally controlled Smart Templates.
Franchise owners customize national campaigns with local store information, regional promotions, and community-specific messaging, maintaining brand integrity while maximizing local relevance.
Regional teams and store managers produce point-of-sale materials, window stickers, and promotional signage that reflects local inventory, seasonal preferences, and regional demographics.
GraFx Experience excels at distributed marketing scenarios where central-local marketing collaboration is critical. For global campaign roll-out and execution, it solves the fundamental challenge: how to maintain brand control while enabling local creativity.
Country-specific marketing teams can adapt global campaigns to local languages, cultural nuances, and market conditions. Field marketing teams can personalize materials for specific customer segments. All without ever waiting for central design approval or risking brand compliance issues.
This self-service environment transforms how organizations approach multichannel campaigns. Local teams produce print ads, digital banners, social media content, and in-store displays – all from the same Smart Template foundation, ensuring consistency across every touchpoint.
For marketing operations directors and creative operations teams, GraFx Experience delivers measurable efficiency gains. The platform reduces design request backlogs, accelerates time-to-market, and eliminates the constant back-and-forth between central and local teams.
Chief marketing officers gain unprecedented visibility into brand execution across markets, while local teams gain the creative freedom they need to drive results in their territories.
The combination of GraFx Experience and GraFx Studio creates an unparalleled solution for organizations struggling with the central-local marketing balance. It delivers much more than just downloadable assets – it's about empowering distributed teams to create compelling, on-brand campaigns that drive local success within global standards.
