Instigo
One Stop to In-Store

From Fragmentation to Innovation

Traditional shopper marketing program management can be a fragmented and labor-intensive process involving a pipeline of vendors, large internal teams dedicated to program project management and repetitive manual tasks. Recognizing the need for consumer goods manufacturers to be able to more efficiently create and deliver in-store marketing collateral to their retail accounts, Cierant created Instigo.

What Is Instigo?

Instigo is an online shopper marketing program management system that streamlines the steps of program execution into a single, automated workflow. The system works by taking brands’ most frequently used promotional tactics, converting them into customizable templates, and integrating them into the online ordering system under the programs for which they are available.

By taking a templated, online approach, field sales members are able to log in in from anywhere at any time to preview, select, customize and activate account-specific tactics on-demand!
