Sesimi CEO Andy Baker on Connecting Marketing Strategy with Frontline Execution
Published on 17 Feb 2026 by Sesimi Editorial
Dealer networks and franchise systems face a structural challenge. National strategy is carefully developed, yet execution across local markets often becomes inconsistent. Layouts are modified, offers are rewritten, disclaimers are missed, and brand equity is diluted at scale. In this interview, Sesimi outlines how systemised marketing infrastructure connects central strategy with controlled frontline execution.
Distributed marketing does not fail because of poor creative thinking. It fails because of operational fragmentation. Local teams need flexibility to reflect stock levels, demographics, geography, and regulation. They do not need unrestricted design access. Without structured guardrails, access to creative tools leads to unnecessary variation, compliance risk, and production waste.
Sesimi was built to solve that last mile problem. By embedding brand rules directly into creative workflows, central teams preserve strategic intent while enabling controlled localisation. Layout systems replace one off campaign builds. Editable fields replace full file access. Governance becomes part of execution rather than an afterthought.
Seven Lessons from the Interview
- Distributed execution is an operational challenge, not a creative one.
- Access to design tools without governance increases brand risk.
- Freedom within a structured framework enables scalable localisation.
- Systemised layouts accelerate speed to market across channels.
- Campaigns should be designed for lifecycle variation upfront, not retrofitted later.
- Platform visibility enables measurable ROI and channel level insight.
- AI increases execution speed, but governance determines brand safety.
When marketing is treated as infrastructure rather than a sequence of isolated campaigns, brands move faster and with greater control. Production costs decline. Regulatory exposure reduces. Local teams execute with confidence. Consistency becomes repeatable rather than aspirational.
