AKSESS is the marketing communications tool that puts you in complete control of the design, production, distribution and inventory of your marketing materials. This powerful Web-based application enables you to manage your digital and physical assets so that users throughout your organization can deliver messages consistently to audiences in all of your markets. 

By standardizing the creative and production processes, and providing easily accessible resources, AKSESS empowers your staff, distributors and off-site personnel – across the nation and around the globe – to create communication materials with the same high level of brand integrity, design consistency and quality they would get from the corporate office. They will have the capability to customize messages to the decision-makers in their specific markets, order their own printed materials and stay up-to-date on new products and services within your organization.

AKSESS users enjoy a variety of capabilities through four drivers:

• Asset Driver - Enables you to save digital assets to a central location and empower authorized users worldwide to retrieve photos, logos, illustrations, text files, templates, audio/video clips – all the elements for creating brand-compliant materials
• Document Driver - Offers an additional search capability, locating stored documents that contain a word or phrase specified by the user
• Custom Driver – Enables you to create and manage design templates for ads, documents, presentations, spec sheets, packaging, catalogs and more, which users may customize and submit for print and distribution
• Inventory Driver – Gives you online control over your warehoused communications materials – printed pieces, promotional packages and kit components - and enables users to pre-order, warehouse and request these materials

Additionally, you can choose to include the AKSESS Marketing Calendar, an add-on feature that strengthens your sales and marketing efforts by keeping your sales reps, dealers, distributors – anyone you choose – up-to-date and focused on your marketing events.

The benefits to your organization:

• Consistency – AKSESS helps you maintain and strengthen your brand presence by ensuring that every piece produced is consistent in quality and style.
• Efficiency – Offices no longer have to wait for corporate headquarters to produce and distribute printed materials. They can create and order printing or printed pieces directly from their desktops. If your AKSESS package includes the Marketing Calendar, you enhance your internal communications efficiency as well.
• Cost savings – AKSESS eliminates time, labor and cost redundancies, as well as material obsolescence, by empowering users to develop materials as needed.
• Business intelligence – Extensive reporting functions provide you with data for making informed business decisions about your communication efforts.
• Ease of use – Staff members are typically ready to use AKSESS with a minimal amount of training due to the application’s intuitive, user-friendly design.
