The problem

Entain is one of the world’s largest sports betting and gaming groups with an expansive portfolio of brands such as Ladbrokes and bwin.

If you’re a top global betting company and your brand is launching a global digital ad campaign in 27 countries, that entails significant creative production work. You need to ensure your creative assets are regionally relevant, whether that is in the language or in the country’s legalities surrounding sports betting. That is before marketing personalisation, where product visuals, Calls to Action or pricing will all require adapting. All in the name of reaching the right person at the right time.

But how did Entain source a more efficient means for such relentless adaptations?

The solution

Template-based production is how creative teams at Entain can now render multiple variants at scale, giving them more control to quickly adjust to market needs.

The Entain creative team were all thoroughly trained in the templating process with “hero” users appointed to different brands.

Entain uses their templates to scale to multiple products (or games or races), languages or audiences, generating a large volume of output.

For Entain, the view of an endlessly growing number of project management system tickets between creative and marketing teams is over.

Now the chain is shorter because when these newly sustainable and future-proof teams need a version, they can do it themselves and their time to market is expedited significantly.

“Prior to Storyteq, any tactical creative production that was requested would’ve involved five or six people to brief, plan, schedule, resource design and approve, and would use up valuable people time that could be spent on less tactical briefs. Now, it takes the requestor a fraction of the time to self-serve and have the necessary assets available instantly.”
