Subway's174; Franchise Advertising Fund Trust (SFAFT), selected Kinetic Corporation (http://www.thetechnologyagency.com/) to develop a global communications solution that provides Subway'ss franchisees with tools that can be used to localize and personalize their communications and drive sales. The solution will debut at the annual Subway Global Planning Summit, held March 10-14 in Orlando, Florida.
The challenge was to create a toolkit to make Subway campaigns available to their franchisees in the right language with the right imagery on-demand with the ability to customize and
produce locally as needed. They also wanted to be able to provide single store personalization, specific-market segmentation and maintain a certain amount of control so that local
marketing campaigns aligned with the overall brand strategy.
This is world-class, said Jeff Whitney, VP Field Marketing, SFAFT. The infrastructure Kinetic is providing is revolutionary and will make a huge difference in the ability of our
franchisees across the globe to effectively market their stores.
Kinetic designed My Marketing Toolkit for the Subway franchisees to develop multilingual materials that can be localized and personalized in a way that'ss relevant to their target markets
and also comply with corporate brand standards.
Collaborating with the SFAFT team on this project has been terrific, said Rob Zimlich, Kinetic Globalization Executive. What Subway has created for the franchisees is amazing. It'ss
deceptively simple, but at the same time extremely deep. Helping our client achieve their business objectives and compete more effectively is exciting.
The system integrates seamlessly with Subway'ss valuable partners, simplifying the co-branding process. Implementing a pull model and tapping into the Kinetic global print network will
position Subway for the future of collaboration and positively impact their bottom line. Kinetic'ss innovative ideas are helping clients meet more affordably, effectively and conveniently
the demands for reduced costs and accelerated cycle times.
