Webinar | Centralize, Activate, Grow: Marketing in the AI Search Era

How franchisors can use data and AI to drive local visibility, adoption, and revenue across every location. Many franchise marketers are working to solve a familiar set of challenges: generating more qualified local leads, increasing adoption of brand programs, and improving execution at the location level. At the same time, AI is changing how customers discover local businesses, with AI Overviews now appearing in 68% of local business-type search queries. In this new landscape, visibility isn’t just a channel; it’s a competitive advantage that depends on how well your system supports local performance. In this session, Floor Coverings International and PromoRepublic share how they built a unified system to track marketing performance across all locations and used that data to activate their network.
You’ll learn how:
- Role-based centralized dashboards helped HQ and franchisees see what’s working and act on it
- AI-powered Overview rankings highlight which locations need support and what to improve
- Marketing leaders can use data and AI to drive adoption, local execution, and long-term organic growth
Whether you’re leading brand, digital, or field marketing, you’ll leave with a practical framework for helping every location succeed and stay visible in the AI-driven future.
