If you run a franchise, you’ll know one of the biggest ongoing challenges is maintaining brand consistency while still giving your franchisees the freedom to promote themselves locally.
That’s exactly the problem ShoutOut was created to solve.
With ShoutOut, you can empower your franchisees to create on-brand videos and social posts without losing control of your visual identity. Whether it’s video testimonials, personalised promos, or quick social clips, ShoutOut makes it easy, scalable, and foolproof.
Here’s how franchise organisations are already using ShoutOut—and how you can too.
🎥 1. Give Franchisees Ready-Made Branding Templates
Imagine sending your franchisees a link that gives them access to pre-built video templates—complete with your fonts, logos, colours, intros, outros, and music.
That’s exactly what ShoutOut lets you do.
Your master account acts like a central control hub, and from there, you can:
- Create fully branded templates
- Distribute them to sub-accounts (your franchisees)
- Update or add new templates at any time
Franchisees can then record their own videos or add in assets like text or images, and instantly generate content that looks 100% on-brand—no video editing required.
It’s like a print portal, but for video.
📢 2. Let Franchisees Record Social Videos to Promote Themselves
Your franchisees are often the face of their local communities—so why not let them shine?
With ShoutOut, they can simply record a video on their smartphone or computer. The process is guided by a simple interface, which prompts them on what to say and when to record. There’s no need for a camera crew, special equipment or editing skills.
Once recorded, their video is automatically styled with your brand’s template—ready to post on Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook or anywhere else.
It’s a great way to help them promote special offers, introduce themselves, or give a behind-the-scenes look at their business.
🌟 3. Gather Authentic Customer Testimonials (Easily)
You can also flip the process—let your customers do the talking.
Franchisees can send a ShoutOut invite link to happy customers, prompting them to leave a quick video or text based testimonial. As always, the final output is professionally branded with your colours, logos, and graphics.
The customer simply records the video on their phone or laptop by following the same simple prompts—no downloads, no hassle. Just powerful social proof, collected and shared in minutes.
🎬 4. Personalise Your Existing Marketing Videos
Already have great marketing videos?
Perfect. With ShoutOut, you don’t need to start from scratch. Instead, you can create personalised versions for each franchisee.
Just upload your existing video content into ShoutOut, and allow franchisees to customise it by:
- Adding their name or location
- Inserting their contact details
- Swapping out a visual for a local image
In seconds, you’ve got a hyper-personalised version of your core content—without a production team or costly editing.
✍️ 5. Create Text-Based Video Templates (and Social Post Images)
Sometimes, all you need is a quick post to share an announcement or event. ShoutOut also supports text-based social videos and images.
You can build a text-only template with your branding, then allow franchisees to:
- Add a custom message
- Include a headshot or photo
- Drop in a promo or call-to-action
Perfect for announcing a local event, celebrating a milestone, or sharing a new service.
🔄 The Franchise Workflow in a Nutshell
- You create the templates (video or image-based) in your master account.
- You share them with your sub-accounts (your franchisees).
- Franchisees record, personalise, or upload their content.
- ShoutOut automatically generates the finished content in your branding.
- Everyone wins.
