Challenges
Activating local stores and franchisees to kickstart their marketing efforts with appropriate materials and campaigns poses a significant challenge for Domino's. In the past, franchisees had to invest a great deal of time in sending out and creating direct mail, which unfortunately led to minimal participation.
Furthermore, managing the allocation of marketing costs between centralized and local initiatives is a complex task in the current scenario. Each franchisee of Domino's Pizza operates with its own budget for executing marketing campaigns such as door-to-door advertising and direct mail.
Wishes
Domino's Pizza had specific requirements for their franchise marketing platform:
- A user-friendly portal for creating and ordering marketing materials within brand guidelines.
- Flexibility for franchisees to decide if they wanted to participate in a campaign, on which channels, and to what extent.
- The platform needed to distribute marketing content on a local level across Social Media, Out-of-Home, and Direct Mail channels.
- Franchisees needed visibility into campaign budgets and costs.
- Lastly, the solution needed to be scalable and viable for international use.
Results
Thanks to Marvia, a centralized marketing portal has been established for all Domino branches in the Netherlands and Belgium to effortlessly create and publish their marketing materials.
The portal significantly reduces the time franchisees spend on developing localized marketing campaigns, while simultaneously enhancing the connection between the message and the target audience. If a customer receives a pizza late this week, he will receive a DM with a nice offer at the end of the week.
Domino's Pizza is extremely pleased with the solution provided. As time passed, we continued to expand the platform by introducing new features and channels like a marketing calendar and paid social media.
Initially, the platform had the participation of 15 stores. However, this number has skyrocketed to nearly 500 in the Netherlands and Belgium. Not only has the success of the portal been recognized internally, but it has also inspired other countries such as Japan, France, and Germany to create their very own portals.
