What is marketing compliance, exactly? For creative content producers, marketing compliance means more than just enforcing rules and regulations. A well-defined marketing compliance strategy involves protecting brand integrity and consumer trust using traceable oversight of actions, decisions, and changes throughout the entire creative content production process.

For many marketers, having a marketing compliance strategy is a mere afterthought, though. In fact, some may even see it as a nuisance better ignored.

However, marketing compliance is not defined as a strategy just for highly regulated industries like healthcare or financial services. To disregard it could be the worst mistake your business will ever make. 

It’s the law - it’s for everyone.

Today, every discipline in marketing has core KPIs that need to be monitored. From impressions and conversion rates to customer acquisition costs, it all adds up to influence how you form your strategy, campaigns, and even your teams.

Our latest product release is now live. Highlights for this release include a new Business Insight tool that tracks core proofing productivity metrics over time and a robust authentication log for comprehensive compliance and security needs.

Review and approval: it’s the final frontier of project completion. There’s no better feeling than checking off a review step or updating the status of a project to “Approved.” 

Ziflow has achieved SOC 2 Type II  certification of our internal controls and processes, as they relate to security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy of a system. Keep reading to check out the press release we've done with our auditor, KirkPartrick Price.

A few years back, the Marketing Operations role didn’t exist. Instead, the marketing department drafted in Project Managers to help run and coordinate their more extensive campaigns.

Our latest product release is now live. Highlights for this release include: new proof sharing functionality, magazine layout, multi-select and proof tagging, global search, approved stage skipping, adding templates to existing proofs and much more!

Rush jobs are a fact of life in creative production. Whether they are driven by the need for new campaigns on a short fuse, or last-minute feedback arriving which changes the scope of a creative project dramatically, these requests disrupt the best-laid project plans.  

Depending on your industry and type of creative content you produce, there is a wide range of marketing compliance issues that must be accounted for during the production process including disclosures, copyright and trademark considerations, regulatory compliance, and stakeholder involvement.

We’re happy to announce that our April 2019 release has now gone live. New features include folder sharing with internal team members, Decision Checklists (Reasons), additional Automated Workflow triggers and more proof triggers with Zibots. We’ve also made user interface and experience improvements to make it easier to see the progress of each reviewer. Read on to learn more!

Our March 2019 product release is now live and as you can expect from the product team by now, it’s jammed full of great features like trusted (partner) accounts, new proof triggers and a Webhook Zibot to connect Ziflow with your other apps, decision label customization, proof quality enhancements using vector text and paragraph text selection.

As creative marketing teams launch more and more integrated omnichannel campaigns, the internal tools used to produce, review, and launch these campaigns can vary significantly.

Feedback for creative marketing projects often come from (and touch) many different parts of the business, so much so, that it can be tough to know who truly “owns” the entire process - and who’s responsible for making it more efficient. Depending on the type of organization you work within, review and approval processes can vary, as can the roles responsible for them.

Ease of use is the single most important "feature" within (and throughout) Ziflow. Nowhere is this more important than when it comes to soliciting and collecting feedback. When you consider that all Ziflow accounts come with unlimited reviewers (both internal and external to your organization), it's easy to see how the feedback process could get out of hand.  

This month's product enhancements include the ability to label & resolve comments (also known as actions on comments), search for text in a proof, export proofs to CSV and many more.
