No walking the fine line between promise and delivery for Fineline with CHILI GraFx

CHILI GraFx offered Fineline the document editing, data-driven workflow and integration tools needed for Finelink 2.0.

The struggle - optimization

Fineline had developed Finelink 1.0, an online document management and print-on- demand technology to help customers handle their printwork in one central location. But as marketing channels – and the ways in which clients collaborate - got customized, technology needed to adapt. Fineline struggled to find a partner that could be easily integrated and would ensure optimization of the marketing options in Finelink 1.0.

Whether it be multiple locations, franchises, or departments, the companies we speak to often are not working from the same marketing or business script. CHILI GraFx has helped us to solve that big challenge for our clients.

The solution - threefold

In CHILI GraFx, Fineline noticed a three- fold solution to the issues at hand. First off, the professional-level layout tools work for any kind of (non) professional designer. The online editor allows clients to better control their brand and legally required text via controlled access to design elements and their properties. Secondly, CHILI GraFx’s ability to create data-driven document management streamlines the marketing procure- ment process for Fineline clients, improving time and efficiency in their operations. Last but not least, CHILI publish’s API’s connects directly with such systems as asset management, project management, CRM’s like Salesforce, and marketing automation platforms.

The benefits - diversified ease of use

The integration of CHILI GraFx completed the transformation to Finelink 2.0.

“Whether it be multiple locations, franchises, or departments, the companies we speak to often are not working from the same marketing or business script. CHILI GraFx has helped us to solve that big challenge for our clients. Finelink 2.0 now brings business, marketing and print operations all together under one customized, easy-to-use platform that benefits the users, the company, and the brand.” notes Richard Miller, owner at Fineline.

Victorinox: Engineering Brand Consistency at the Speed of Local Markets

For a company that has manufactured its iconic Swiss Army knife from the same Swiss town since 1884, Victorinox has never confused tradition with complacency. CEO Carl Elsener Jr. has made the company’s strategic philosophy explicit: “We think in generations, not in quarters.” That long-term lens now extends to marketing operations — and to a fundamental rethink of how a premium global brand equips local teams and retail partners to produce and distribute marketing communications, promotions, and point-of-sale materials without sacrificing the Swiss precision the brand stands for.
