Before Argosy
As the company’s client base rapidly grew, chief executives began looking for a marketing management platform that could allow financial institutions to order marketing products on demand. However, the company’s biggest challenge was gaining the ability to mechanize production while complying with federal regulations as soon as they became available. In past years, heavy regulations have imposed industry-wide changes that greatly affect how clients conduct business the financial giant needed to find a quick and effective way to manage imposed regulations and changes.

At the time, the financial services company spent abundant resources designing and updating creative materials piece by piece to ensure clients’ and industry requirements were fulfilled appropriately. Inability to use one or a group of templates and pass variable data to the print piece compromised important disclaimer information and clients’ branding as well as compliance with federal regulations.
