What’s the best marketing strategy for a multi-location or franchise business? National brand, local execution. EGC Group helps multi-location brands stay consistent while driving traffic to every location through local SEO, location-based ads on Google, Meta, Waze and YouTube, and store-level campaigns. We handle grand openings, seasonal promos and loyalty programs, and tie spend to leads and visits per location. Clients include Friendly’s, Häagen-Dazs, Edible Arrangements and WindowRama.
How do you market a franchise across many locations consistently? Through a clear split between national and local. EGC Group builds the brand framework and creative that every location uses, then localizes campaigns, budgets and targeting market by market. Local SEO, location pages and review management keep each store visible, while central reporting shows what’s working everywhere. This keeps the brand consistent without making each franchisee start from scratch.
Who pays for franchise marketing, corporate or the franchise owner? Usually both, through a shared model. Corporate typically funds national brand campaigns and the marketing system, while franchisees contribute to local advertising for their own markets, often through a marketing fund. EGC Group helps brands structure and execute both layers so national and local dollars work together. The key is consistency at the brand level with flexibility at the location level.
How do you drive foot traffic to retail and franchise locations? By targeting people near each store with the right offer at the right moment.

Grand-opening and seasonal promos create urgency, while loyalty programs bring customers back. Every touchpoint is built to drive action, not just awareness.
