Total Expert + Maxa Designs

Self-Service Design Suite to Create Compliant, Dynamic, Data-Rich Marketing Assets

Total Expert and MAXA Designs have partnered to bring the convenience and usability of point-and-click design tools to regulated financial services organizations. Now, anyone can create compelling, compliant, branded marketing materials with a design suite that’s purpose-built for modern banks, credit unions, and lenders.

ENTERPRISE-LEVEL DESIGN SOLUTIONS

Democratize and decentralize content creation

Unlike horizontal solutions that lack the ability to pull in dynamic, data-rich content, Total Expert + MAXA Designs give enterprise designers and administrators the ability to create and manage pre-built templates that sales and marketing teams can personalize to forge deeper relationships with customers while ensuring brand and regulatory compliance.

Design tools

Give your designers and marketing administrators the freedom to create and manage customized collateral templates without the cost or complexity that comes with traditional design software. 

 

The MAXA Design Center provides royalty-free images, videos, gifs, music, AI features, and more to provide limitless design options and speed to market. 

 

InDesign uploader: Reduce time-consuming, redundant marketing requests with an InDesign uploader that quickly converts external InDesign files into dynamic templates for your team to customize.

The MAXA Design Center pulls in data-rich content from a user’s profile in the Total Expert platform, giving bankers and loan officers the ability to personalize each piece of collateral with just a few clicks—no design skills required. 

 

Sales collateral: Automatically populate a user’s contact info, license numbers, headshot, and other personal branding elements from their Total Expert profile. 

 

Products & services collateral: Map text and images to be replaced with dynamic data including MLS listings, testimonials, rate scenarios, partner profiles, and more.

Brand and compliance solutions

Ensuring brand and regulatory compliance is a constant challenge for enterprise customers with decentralized teams. But MAXA Design Center allows designers and administrators to lock down specific layers within each template, including text boxes, logos, fonts, colors, imagery, disclaimers, licensing, and more to keep your end users from going rogue when creating collateral. 

 

Multiple locking options are available to give you greater control over what content other users can modify. 

  • Red lock: The element is locked from users and can only be edited or unlocked by platform administrators. 
  • Gray lock: The element is locked to keep things simple, but the user can still unlock and modify it. 
  • Yellow lock: Text box elements can be set to alert the user to change the placeholder text on the template. 
  • Purple lock: The element can be edited, moved, or resized but cannot be deleted from the template. 

Users can quickly print their designs on demand or create a print-ready package for local printers or direct mail partners. MAXA provides nationwide competitive print pricing, hyper-targeted data lists for direct mail, and custom promotional codes
