How the Sto Marketing Communication Cockpit delivers maximum transparency and efficiency
Before the introduction, marketing workflows in the company were confusing. There were different ways of working, documents were sent by e-mail, data was stored on local drives. Absent employees could not really be covered for, and when staff changed, valuable information was lost. These inefficient processes made content production more difficult and caused unnecessary costs and lost time.
"We had no overview of how far which document was in the workflow. Absent employees could not be covered for [...]"
It enables the transparent review and approval of marketing materials. Everyone keeps an overview at all times, from the first briefing through to the creation of the final files.
The audit-proof change history makes collaboration with external partners easier.

If the MCC were to disappear one day, we would be completely stuck in international marketing, 100%. We can no longer work without the tool – and we do not want to.
Everything is documented in the system and I no longer have to worry about anything – it runs through automatically. The MCC is worth its weight in gold – efficient and time-saving.
We use the MCC every day as a process tool with the agencies – and above all with our artwork agency. That way we always know at a glance where which document currently is – from handing over the briefing through to the print-ready artwork.
