Why This Matters for 2026

Multi-location marketers are under pressure to tighten operations and increase output without adding headcount. SOCi’s showing in the Winter Reports validates what we hear every day: brands need a platform that eliminates complexity, not adds to it.

With SOCi, teams replace scattered tools, centralize workflows, and scale engagement, whether it’s managing thousands of local listings, generating content, responding to reviews, or optimizing omnichannel visibility.

And as AI and automation continue reshaping how local marketing gets done, SOCi is built to not only keep pace with that evolution, but lead it.

Starting the Year Strong

If you’re entering 2026 still juggling disconnected dashboards or trying to scale with tools that weren’t built for multi-location realities, this is your sign to rethink the foundation.
