Introduction
For brands operating in the field—across franchisees, dealer networks or regional sales teams—campaign success depends on more than digital engagement or email opens.
You need to know: which stores launched their kits, which partners pulled the right signage, which vendors delivered on time.
That’s what centralized marketing data looks like inside GearBox® by IRIS Strategic Marketing Support (IRIS). It’s not about pretty dashboards. It’s about knowing what’s actually happening in the field so teams can course-correct before a campaign slips.
What Centralized Data Means for Execution Teams

It’s Not a CRM Metric
You’re not tracking leads—you’re tracking usage, adoption and fulfillment activity.
It’s Not What Was Sent—It’s What Was Done
Emailing a signage kit doesn’t mean it was used. GearBox® tells you what’s live and where gaps exist.
It’s the Link Between Brand Control and Local Enablement
GearBox® data shows how well partners follow standards while giving flexibility to local teams.
