Automation

Automation saves brands time, money, and mistakes. With our Local Marketing Automation Platform, LMap, create programmatic rules and back-end coding solutions that can be implemented either programmatic profile rules on a location level, or programmatic brand rules on a brand level.

Enabling greater access to opportunities at national, regional, and local level.

Local creative customization leverages the programmatic profiles rules to version automatically on a local level, but also goes a step further by allowing customization within pre-determined brand guidelines.

Versioning options

Brands create allowable versioning options from backgrounds to coupons, as well as open-ended variable fields.

Approval Workflows

With approval workflows we ensure brand standards are maintained.

National Ad Fund

Programmatically determine what locations or territories are being covered by National Ad Fund Dollar Media Buys.

Localized Artworks

Automatically add locations and territories to artwork that is being distributed in a geography.

Our Grand Opening automation takes the management and stress out of what is arguably the most angst-ridden part of opening a business.

Analysis

Our Barcode Solution allows you to scan Barcodes that are part of coupons or loyalty programs. Creating a digital scanning solution when your POS can’t. Create unique or even one-time bar codes from within our system, and provide scanning even without a POS system. Layer on your client customer data to create advanced offer segmented campaigns, offer testing, loyalty programs, territory assessment, customer journey programs, or grand opening programs. And leverage our discount management system for advanced tracking and segmented offer delivery, all from within LMap. Best Practice Alert: If a barcode is not redeemed on a postcard and it has an expiration date on it, we have the ability to send an e-mail 48 hours before the expiration date so that you can remind them. Pro Tip: Include the coupon (new barcode of course but same offer) to track the effectiveness of the additional touchpoint. The second individual barcode will allow you to track the media channel.

Data Aggregation

We aggregate data from premier partners to provide the best and most accurate information across all categories. From demographic information to location and digital data, Silvercrest works with the top data providers to leverage over 300 year’s worth of experience. The data is aggregated in LMap allowing you and your brand to have simplified access to the world’s most sophisticated data sets, with 14,000 data points, upon which you can also layer on your own sales data for specific targeting and robust reporting. This facilitates a more holistic view of your customer base and advanced territory analysis, by layering on additional data it expands the understanding of the customers’ profile.

Plus, our unique relationship with the USPS, provides us with real-time CASS certification, merge/purge capabilities, duplication, identification, NCOA, as well as Intelligent Mail Bar Code Creation, both for Offline to Online Media Activations based on mail delivery notifications from the USPS. Providing you with access to the largest database of consumer addresses in the country, making 1:1 communication not only feasible but also immediately accessible.
