adVANTAGE / MANAGED SERVICE

Your franchise advertising. Our team running it.

You did not build a franchise system so you could manage ad campaigns. Hand your franchise advertising to a team that does this every day, for brands like yours, across hundreds of locations.

01 / THE CASE FOR MANAGED

MANAGED SERVICE FAQ

Hard questions. Real answers.

What does "fully managed" actually mean?

It means your franchise advertising program is handled end-to-end by our team. Strategy, campaign builds, creative production, daily optimization, reporting, and strategic recommendations. You approve the plan and the creative. We execute everything else. Your internal team stays focused on running the business.

How much involvement does our team need?

Minimal. We need your brand guidelines, approval on strategy and creative, and attendance at monthly performance reviews. Beyond that, our team handles the day-to-day work. Most clients spend less than 4 hours per month on their managed advertising program.

How do you handle franchisee communication?

We adapt to your operating model. For some brands, we communicate directly with franchisees about their local campaigns. For others, we report to corporate and your team handles franchisee communication. The CyberMark Client Center gives both corporate and franchisees self-service access to performance data.

What is the contract structure?

We work on 12-month agreements with quarterly check-ins. Franchise advertising programs need time to ramp up, optimize, and deliver compounding results. Short-term contracts do not give the process room to work. We earn your renewal by delivering measurable ROI.

Can we scale up or down during the contract?

Yes. Adding locations, increasing budgets, and launching new campaigns are standard parts of the relationship. We build programs that flex with your franchise system as it grows. If you need to reduce scope, we work together on a plan that makes sense.
