Maximize Design Efficiency and Protect Brand Integrity

Brand consistency is essential for design teams, and enabling franchisees to create their own on-brand content helps reduce design requests and accelerate output. Empower your design teams by transforming existing assets into customizable templates for franchisees to adapt locally.

Designers can develop branded materials—social posts, flyers, banners, and video highlights—in their preferred platform and convert them to templates in Design Huddle. Add granular element locking and placeholder functionality to control design and branding components while allowing users to edit text and swap out approved media assets.

  • Import designs via PDF and motion graphics from After Effects/Figma via LottieFiles.

  • Create, manage, and distribute branded digital, print, and video templates.

  • Lock design element attributes like colors, positioning, and font styles.

  • Designate zones & placeholders for users to fill in logos, text, and images.

Enable Franchisees with Self-serve, Template-based Content Creation

With branded templates and an intuitive editor at their fingertips, franchisees can quickly produce localized designs and videos, minimizing design requests and enhancing production efficiency.

Our easy-to-use, drag-and-drop, design and video editor was built with non-professional designers in mind. Your franchisees will be able to easily access approved brand assets and make simple customizations like editing text, swapping out images, and adding localized content with ease.

  • Empower any user with an intuitive, template-based design and video editor

  • Provide access to approved brand assets and media libraries.

  • Review and approve projects before they’re finalized.

  • Send finalized projects to print or post to social media.

Centralize Approved Media Assets for Franchisees to Easily Access

Make it easy for franchisees to locate all necessary resources and minimize back-and-forths by providing access to pre-approved media assets. With Design Huddle, you can host, manage, and share brand assets and other media through organized libraries for seamless access.

Effortlessly integrate your existing asset management (DAM) system, connect with third-party providers, or use our integrations with Unsplash+, Pexels, Soundstripe, and Iconfinder.

Give Them a Head Start with Creative Automation

Looking to give your franchisees a head start? Design Huddle’s Smart Templates allow you to easily tag variable design elements - text, media, colors - you wish to populate dynamically.

For example, your templates will likely contain placeholders for store location and hours, you can pre-fill design and video templates with this information, show design and video previews to your franchisees, and allow them to customize using the editor. Data can be stored within Design Huddle or you can integrate your database to automate design and video creation.

  • Easily tag variables in digital, print, and video templates.

  • Store franchisee data in Design Huddle to populate designs and videos.

  • Optionally connect an external data source to generate personalized designs in real-time.

  • Preview multiple templates generated simultaneously.
