StreamSend: 6 Reasons Franchises Should Centralize Their Email Marketing

StreamSend, the email marketing service provider and creator of Franchise Market Automation, shares six strong reasons why franchise marketers and their agencies should be looking at centralizing their email marketing operations.

"Franchise marketing faces a challenge: national brands and marketers need to grow sales at the local level while protecting their brand equity," said Dan Forootan, president of StreamSend Email Marketing. "What they are discovering is that centralizing and automating email marketing are powerful ways to localize national marketing strategy while delivering targeted, campaigns -- personalized, localized and measurable -- with a consistent brand image. Here are six real capabilities that make a compelling argument for centralizing their email marketing campaigns."

1. Build Brand Power
Leverage - don't lose - brand equity. Manage brand consistency across the entire organization from one central location.

2. Think Globally, Act Locally
Inrease sales with a centralized email marketing approach built on local relationships. Send campaigns to customers franchise-wide with geo-targeted promotions corresponding to individual franchise locations.

3. Get the Best Seat in the House
Collect valuable data. A centralized approach will enable you to collect and immediately analyze actionable data franchise-wide to help you spot trends and tweak your campaigns for "optimail" results.

4. Compare & Contrast - and Learn
Gain the ability to do multi-level reporting. Report on campaigns globally or by individual locations, then find out what works (and what doesn't) so locations can learn from one another.

5. Max out the Marketing Investment
Maximize time and minimize resources. Leverage the data collected franchise-wide to develop triggered, personalized email communications that cross-sell and upsell customers based on purchase history and preferences.

6. Treat them like Royalty
Know and nurture best customers. Sending email campaigns from a centralized database lets franchises set up loyalty or VIP programs and monthly coupons that direct people to their local store.
