Bridging Print and Digital: How MAP+ Streamlines Brand Management
June 23, 2026
Where Digital Strategy Meets Print Execution
At YGS Print Solutions, we work closely with our sister company, GregoryScott, to deliver seamless system integration that connects digital tools with print and production workflows. Together, we bring technology, print, and brand execution into one streamlined experience, helping clients manage their marketing more efficiently from start to finish.
In a time when marketing speed and brand consistency can make or break a campaign, having the right tools in place is essential. MAP+, short for Marketing Automation Portal Plus, was developed by GregoryScott and integrated with YGS Print Solutions to support this need. It bridges the gap between digital workflows and print and production workflows, giving teams an intuitive, customizable platform to manage branded materials, automate print orders, and maintain creative control across every campaign.
VP, Client Engagement
Q & A | Expert Insights: Inside the MAP+ Platform
To get an inside look at what makes MAP+ so transformative, we spoke with GregoryScott’s Amy LaPorte, Vice President of Client Engagement, to talk about the inspiration, innovation, and impact behind this platform, and how it is helping businesses simplify their marketing from start to finish.
Understanding MAP+
Q: For those who are unfamiliar, what exactly is MAP+, and how does it help streamline the marketing process?
A: MAP+ is a modular solution that allows our clients to choose which elements make sense for them, such as approval workflows or budget tracking, and add them as modules easily. It’s designed to be configurable, allowing each client to customize it to their specific needs.
Q: What challenges did clients face before using MAP+, and how does this platform solve them?
A: Clients often struggled with brand compliance, time constraints, lack of budget tracking, and scattered ordering systems. We’ve helped consolidate multiple platforms into one streamlined solution, improving approval processes, brand compliance, and visibility all at once.
Q: What makes MAP+ different from other online ordering or asset management systems?
A: We don’t pigeonhole clients into a singular workflow. We work with customers to understand their individual needs and build the workflow around their specific processes and goals, so it feels like a true extension of their business.
The Secret Behind A Seamless Workflow
Q: MAP+ connects marketing with print, signage, and fulfillment. How do those integrations work behind the scenes?
A: Everything runs through our order automation platform. Orders feed directly into PACE, which automatically opens jobs and routes them to prepress, eliminating manual steps and reducing turnaround time.
Q: How does MAP+ integrate with clients’ existing systems or workflows?
A: We frequently connect with CRMs like Salesforce and set up single sign-on to simplify access and control permissions. We evaluate what systems matter most to our clients and integrate accordingly.
Q: What kind of data or reporting features does MAP+ offer to help clients make smarter decisions?
A: It’s great for telling clients what products are being ordered, what isn’t being ordered, who is and isn’t using the platform, and how much they’re spending. Some even monitor stock photo expiration dates to manage licensing and budgets more efficiently.
Q: From a development standpoint, what feature are you most proud of?
A: Order automation has really been the key for us this year. It’s something we’ve been perfecting for 15 years, and now it’s finally coming to fruition. Being able to integrate those orders directly into PACE has been a game-changer.
Real-World Impact
Q: How does MAP+ help clients reduce time, cost, or errors?
A: By automating data integration, users no longer make judgment calls or reenter information. It’s populated automatically, reducing compliance errors and design costs. One client saved around $300,000 a year in design fees thanks to MAP+.
A Platform That Thinks Ahead
Q: How does MAP+ reflect GregoryScott’s larger focus on technology-driven solutions?
A: The modular approach defines who we are. We are always thinking ahead about what new tools will make our clients’ lives easier.
Q: What’s next for MAP+?
A: We’ve been exploring ways to incorporate AI thoughtfully while keeping each client’s brand voice and data security at the forefront as we evolve the platform.
Q: How do you see MAP+ growing as marketing automation continues to grow?
A: As new tech comes out, we’ll continue to add additional enhancements. This year, we added the ability to customize videos, contact information, and logos. It’s about giving clients more control and creativity in less time.
