As 3PLs expand their customer portfolios, they face increasing operational and financial complexity. Disconnected data across carrier invoices, manifests, and client billing systems makes it difficult to measure profitability by brand accurately, while slow pricing workflows, manual invoicing, and growing client demands for transparency create friction across the business.

3PL Brand Management addresses these challenges by transforming fragmented shipping and financial data into a unified, intelligent system that enables 3PLs to segment, analyze, and optimize brand-level economics with speed and precision.

“3PLs are managing more brands, more complexity, and more pressure on margins than ever before,” said Shawn McCarrick, CEO of Sifted. “3PL Brand Management gives logistics providers the control and visibility they’ve been missing. It enables them to understand true profitability by brand, automate billing with confidence, and deliver the transparency their customers expect without compromising their margins.”

Marketing Technology News: MarTech Interview with Kurt Donnell, CEO @ Freestar

A Better Way to Manage Multi-Brand Logistics Operations

Traditional tools force 3PLs to rely on spreadsheets, rigid markup structures, or disconnected systems that fail to capture the full picture. These limitations often result in margin leakage, billing inefficiencies, and lost business opportunities.

3PL Brand Management takes a data-driven approach to solve these challenges:

• True Brand-Level Profit Visibility: Automatically segment shipments and invoice data by brand using configurable logic such as account number or GL code—producing accurate insight into which customers and services drive profit.
• Margin Intelligence Built for Complexity: Apply dynamic markups across services, zones, weights, and accessorials to protect margins as carrier rates and cost structures change.
• Transparent Brand-Safe Invoicing: Deliver detailed, client-ready invoices with full shipment visibility—without exposing sensitive markup logic or internal pricing strategies.
• Faster Data-Driven Growth: Generate customized pricing proposals using real shipping data and optimized network insights, accelerating sales cycles and improving win rates.
• Embedded Client Experience: Provide a white-labeled platform where brands can access shipment data, spend, and performance metrics—reducing operational lift while meeting rising transparency expectations.

ESGold Corp.’s recent announcement about a joint venture with Planta Magdalena S.A.S. in Colombia represents the company’s strategic planning in the mining-rich country. The company has entered into a binding memorandum of understanding with Planta Magdalena for the development of a fully permitted gold and silver project in Colombia’s Department of Bolívar.

The strategic partnership will see ESGold contribute C$1.5 million for a 50% joint venture interest, with a first right of refusal to purchase the remaining 50% within 12 months at fair market value determined by independent third-party appraisal. Most significantly, Planta already holds permits to commence production, giving ESGold a rare, near-term path to add a second operation alongside its Quebec-based Montauban project.

Alternative Ballistics Corporation

The new website showcases Alternative Ballistics’ refreshed brand identity and updated corporate colors, reflecting the company’s commitment to advancing public safety with its innovative less-lethal solution. It also highlights a growing network of global partners while delivering clearer, more direct messaging to convey the value of The Alternative^® as a vital risk-mitigation tool for law enforcement, government agencies, and communities worldwide.

“Our new website not only represents a visual transformation but also a renewed effort to communicate who we are and the positive social impact that we are driving,” said Steve Luna, CEO of Alternative Ballistics. “It allows us to address common misconceptions about our technology while providing a clear understanding of how our solution empowers officers and communities alike by reducing risk in critical incidents.”

Marketing Technology News: MarTech Interview with Miguel Lopes, CPO @ TrafficGuard

Alongside the launch, the company announced plans to bring a version of its flagship technology to the commercial market. Originally developed for law enforcement, the product is being adapted for civilian use as a responsible, less-lethal option for home and personal defense. “With our upcoming consumer product, The Home Defense, we’re giving families meaningful protection without the risks and trauma associated with lethal force,” said Luna. “As a ‘less-lethal-first solution’ that works with a firearm, our device provides stopping power and reduced liability without surrendering your weapon, which offers safer defense for the people you care about the most.”

The launch of the new website marks a pivotal milestone for Alternative Ballistics as it continues to expand globally and prepare for the next phase of growth.

Alternative Ballistics Corporation (“ABC”) produces The Alternative^®, a patented less-lethal device designed to help law enforcement de-escalate potential lethal threats and reduce fatalities. The device attaches quickly to a service weapon and uses bullet capture technology to convert a live round into a non-penetrating impact projectile that can temporarily incapacitate an individual, allowing officers the opportunity to safely effect an arrest. It is intended for use when confronting non-compliant individuals who are in possession of a non-firearm weapon, oftentimes involving a person in crisis. After deployment, the firearm instantly reverts to standard use. A commercial version for civilian home-defense may also be available in the future.

With its Omni-Channel Experience, CarMax Puts the Customer in the Driver’s Seat

CarMax, the nation’s largest retailer of used cars, is launching a new brand positioning, spotlighting its seamless, industry-leading omni-channel experience. After years of refining its model to allow customers to buy online, in-store or switch between the two effortlessly, CarMax is setting a new standard of the car-buying journey with customer empowerment at every step. To bring the customer-centric experience to life and reflect the modern expression of what CarMax stands for today, the brand is retiring its former tagline that has been used in some form for more than 20 years and unveiling its new “Wanna Drive?” tagline in its latest creative spots, in partnership with creative agency 72andSunny Los Angeles.

Key Takeaways

• New brand positioning: “Wanna Drive?” isn’t just a tagline – it’s a commitment that at CarMax, the customer is empowered to buy their way, with the clarity, confidence and control to navigate the journey on their terms.
• Industry-leading omni-channel approach: CarMax customers can seamlessly shop online, in-store, or switch between the two effortlessly. The customer is in the driver’s seat: they drive the where, the when, the how – CarMax is their copilot with whatever support they need.
• Creative Launch: Making their debut in a new anthem spot today is the CarMax House Band, who represent the physical manifestation of confidently owning the car-buying and selling journey. The new spots (:30, :15 and :06) are part of a larger marketing ecosystem delivering a phased rollout across channels including linear TV, streaming, social, digital and audio.

Marketing Technology News: MarTech Interview with Stephen Howard-Sarin, MD of Retail Media, Americas @ Criteo

How does CarMax differ from other automotive retailers?

CarMax is the only nationwide retailer — compared to traditional and online-only dealers — that offers this level of integration and flexibility across channels, meeting the largest, and growing, segment of used car buyers where they want to shop, with the best of online and in-store experiences. Whether customers want to buy online and take advantage of express pick up in store, prequalify for financing online and test drive different makes and models in person, or toggle between experiences with ease, CarMax empowers customers to shop their way on their terms.

“CarMax is entering a bold new chapter and we’re ready to share it proudly with the world,” said Sarah Lane, CMO, CarMax. “This is a defining brand moment, one that transcends a single campaign. Our new brand positioning celebrates what customers love most about shopping with us: feeling empowered to do it their way. We’re bringing fresh energy to our brand while staying true to what has always set us apart — honesty, integrity, and innovation.”

As car shopping enters a new era, CarMax is helping lead the way with customer-focused innovation. Its Net Promoter Score — which measures how likely customers are to recommend a brand — is the highest it has been since CarMax rolled out its digital capabilities nationwide. The increase is driven by record-high satisfaction among CarMax customers purchasing online, as well as those using a mix of online and in-store options, showing that the omni-channel approach is really resonating with customers.

What is the CarMax “Wanna Drive?” tagline all about?

The new “Wanna Drive?” tagline brings the omni-channel experience to life and highlights how customers feel so confident and in control with the CarMax experience, it’s as if they have their own personal band hyping them up at every step of the process. This new tagline replaces “The way car buying should be,” that was used in some form for more than 20 years and established CarMax as a challenger in the industry. As CarMax, its customers and the industry have evolved, “Wanna Drive?” reflects the brand’s ongoing commitment to putting the customer in control and making the car buying or selling process more empowering than ever.

How is the CarMax “Wanna Drive?” campaign launching?

• Anthem Spot Concept: In the upbeat :30, :15, and :06 spots, the all-new CarMax House Band follows customers throughout their car-buying and -selling journeys, singing feel-good anthems that celebrate every step of the way — appearing as the physical manifestation of confidently owning the process.
• The CarMax House Band: The core of the band is the comedy trio Wolves of Glendale, made up of Tom McGovern (keyboard), Ethan Edenburg (guitar and vocals), and Eric Jackowitz (drums), and rounded out with two standout artists: acclaimed saxophonist Marta Tiesenga and bassist/multi-instrumentalist Jay Hemphill.
• Credits: The songs were composed by Montreal-based artist and producer Lubalin. The spots were directed by filmmaker Kate Hollowell of Epoch Films.
• Launch Details: Media strategy, planning, and buying is being led by Digitas, CarMax’s new media agency of record, ensuring the creative and messaging reaches audiences across key platforms and touchpoints.
  • Starting today, the anthem spot will premiere across a mix of high-impact platforms and is one piece of a larger ecosystem designed to show up across consumer touchpoints from linear TV and streaming to key digital, social and audio platforms, to influencers and potential activations and cultural moments.

“Partnering with CarMax to launch an entirely new brand platform has been one of those dream collaborations — a joyful blend of ambition, trust, and fun,” said Maddie McDowell, Group Creative Director, 72andSunny Los Angeles. “Together, we reimagined every touchpoint to reflect a bold promise: the customer is in control here. The new tagline, ‘Wanna Drive?’ says it all. It’s not just an invitation—it’s a mindset. This is a brand tossing over the keys and saying, ‘So, how do you want to do this?’”

Agentic AI refers to systems that can operate independently – making decisions, initiating action and pursuing outcomes-based behaviour – often with limited human supervision.

AI agents are autonomous, adaptable and able to collaborate with other systems. That means they are the AI most of us are likely to engage with most often in the coming years: the system that controls your smart home, streamlines your day or monitors and manages your health. 

Agentic AI puts consumers in control

In advertising, the possibilities of agentic AI are huge – think real-time, autonomous campaign management, hyper-personalisation at scale, brand agents, and strategy and insight generation.

But the real significance of agentic AI for advertising may well be on the consumer side of the equation. The future of digital engagement is shifting. For years, ads and affiliate recommendations have been optimised for brands, not individuals. Algorithms track users, push products, and flood feeds with retargeting. And people are tired of it.

The next era won’t be about shouting louder or spending more. Instead, personal AI agents will take control on behalf of users – filtering ads, curating offers and deciding what gets through based on user preferences. The most important relationship won’t be between brands and consumers anymore – it will be between individuals and their AI agents.

This will mean 1. personalised, intent-driven advertising, instead of mass-market targeting; 2. AI-curated affiliate placements, where trusted agents pick winners; and 3. a push-to-pull transformation, where users actively request value, rather than passively receiving it.

Brands who adapt – building transparent, high-quality offerings that earn AI agents’ trust – will get their messages through to consumers. Meanwhile, those who rely on traditional ad bombardment will be left behind. 

Marketing Technology News: MarTech Interview with Žilvinas Lešinskas, VP of Product @ Omnisend

But rocket ships aren’t compatible with carrier pigeons

We believe agentic AI is going to be transformative. But as we look to an AI-driven, laser-fast future in terms of the technology being used to reach consumers, it is hard to ignore the fact that critical elements of the adtech ecosystem’s underlying infrastructure – such as its antiquated payment methods – could do with a future-proof transformation of their own.

To put it another way, we need to be careful that we are not building a rocket ship for ad delivery, creativity and AI, while using a carrier pigeon behind the scenes for supply chain payment and business opportunities.

The industry’s payment processes underpin the business, now and in tomorrow’s AI-driven world. But the adtech supply chain is long and complicated, with brands at the top, agencies, DSPs and SSPs in the middle, and publishers and content creators at the bottom.

Each link in that chain introduces a delay in payments, and since brands and agencies tend to hold onto funds for as long as possible, those at the bottom get squeezed the hardest. It is not uncommon to see small, valuable players waiting 90 or 120 days to be paid for their contribution to the advertising lifecycle.

Overcoming the adtech payment challenge with data and AI

When businesses struggle with cash flow, they can’t scale their operations, invest in marketing, or pay their own suppliers on time. That creates a domino effect that stifles growth across the entire advertising industry – even if AI is turbo-charging processes elsewhere.

But here, too, there are transformative technologies available. Using a data-driven adtech finance platform, businesses can receive their sales revenue as soon as it’s earned, rather than waiting weeks or months. Real-time transaction data enables the advancement of payments before an invoice is even raised. This model is based on transparency, automation, and flexibility – helping businesses get paid faster without taking on debt or navigating lengthy approval processes. 

Naturally, we welcome tools such as agentic AI, which promise to deliver digital marketing into a new, more effective and efficient age. And as it does, we are confident that the same kind of automation will permeate the business at all levels, ensuring that those who are striving to scale operations at speed will receive their own rewards at a similar pace.

UNIMOT S.A., a company that has been developing the AVIA station network since 2017, announces the launch of the loyalty programme ‘Joint course with UNIMOT’, which is intended for franchisees operating this brand in Poland. This initiative is the first step towards building a shareholder structure among business partners who contribute to the Group’s value.

This way, selected franchisees will be able to join the broader UNIMOT business ecosystem, which includes logistics, trading, trade in energy and gas, the renewable energy segment and asphalt production.

“Trust is not a declaration, but a business decision. We not only say “thank you for your cooperation” to our partners. We say: “Come with us and take advantage of what we have built together”. This is another step towards a model in which our partners gain not only operational but also strategic influence,” says Adam Sikorski, President of the Management Board of UNIMOT S.A.

Marketing Technology News: MarTech Interview with Lee McCance, Chief Product Officer @ Adverity

‘A joint course with UNIMOT’ is a unique offer on the market to strengthen long-term of relationships with franchisees. It is to build even stronger commitment based on mutual trust, shared responsibility and common goals.

The programme provides for financial support that will allow partners to purchase shares in UNIMOT S.A. – while maintaining transparent rules of participation at the same time. What is more, UNIMOT plans next editions of the programme for partners who meet specific criteria.

The implementation of the first edition of the programme is planned for the end of 2025. The ongoing intensive preparatory work is to implement the appropriate procedural and organisational solutions.

For franchisees, this is an opportunity to deepen their relationship with the brand and actively participate in its development. For the UNIMOT Group, which is developing the AVIA network in Poland, this is a step towards a stable, long-term partnership that strengthens the entire AVIA value chain and supports the Group’s further development.

Strong Growth in Business Fundamentals, Increased Brand Visibility, and New Strategic Conversations Signal Continued Momentum into Q3 and Q4 2025

Worksport Ltd, a U.S. based manufacturer and innovator of hybrid and clean energy solutions for the light truck, overlanding, and global consumer goods sectors, provided a strategic update highlighting continued expansion across key operational and financial verticals. These updates come ahead of the Company’s Q2 2025 financial results releasing on August 13, 2025.

1. Worksport Doubles Bitcoin Holdings Amid Treasury Strategy Success

Following the launch of its corporate cryptocurrency strategy in December 2024, Worksport has officially doubled its Bitcoin (BTC) holdings. The Company notes that its existing digital asset portfolio—comprised of Bitcoin and XRP—has increased approximately 15% in value since the initial purchase, preserving management’s current view that limited crypto exposure can serve as a long-term hedge against inflation and monetary devaluation.

“Our core focus remains on growing a great American manufacturing business—but we also believe that forward-thinking treasury strategies are vital for preserving long-term value,” said Steven Rossi, Chief Executive Officer of Worksport. “We’re specifically bullish on Bitcoin’s accretive nature, and increasing mainstream adoption offers corporations a unique, uncorrelated store of value. We’re proud to continue our commitment to innovation in both our products and capital allocation practices.”

Marketing Technology News: MarTech Interview with Žilvinas Lešinskas, VP of Product @ Omnisend

Worksport continues to emphasize that the Company’s revenue trajectory, cash flow, and profitability initiatives are its primary focus, but modest cryptocurrency exposure aligns with its long-term risk mitigation philosophy.

2. Production Capacity Expansion with New High-Throughput Manufacturing Equipment

Worksport is pleased to announce it has placed a deposit on the acquisition of a state-of-the-art custom manufacturing machine capable of doubling its current production output. The machine is designed to integrate with existing systems at the Company’s ISO 9001:2015-certified West Seneca, NY facility.

Favorable financing (0% for many months) and deferred shipping terms provide Worksport with flexibility to deploy the equipment based on sales acceleration and market demand. The Company believes its current infrastructure can support more than $50 million in annual output, with the new equipment expected to raise this capacity to over $100 million. Further, having an additional machine allows stable output during machine-maintained periods.

“This is a calculated and strategic move to ensure we’re ready to meet surging demand, especially as our dealer network and e-commerce volumes continue to scale. The financing terms we secured are considered to be a very favourable outcome for the Company” added Rossi.

3. Advancing Business Development: OEM Engagement and Branded Partnerships

With rising sales, expanding gross margins, and increasing interest in the Company’s clean-tech product line, Worksport has initiated conversations with two additional automotive original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). These outreach efforts build on existing traction, including a paid pilot program with a top-15 U.S. construction company for Worksport’s COR and SOLIS products. While each functions independently, together they form a nano-grid system—delivering clean, portable power to job sites, campgrounds, and worksites alike.”

Management is optimistic that ongoing B2B engagement may lead to further commercial partnerships, recurring revenue channels, and increased brand visibility in future years for Worksport.

4. National Brand Visibility Efforts Underway

Following social engagement from NASCAR driver and “Malcolm in the Middle” actor Frankie Muniz, Worksport is evaluating several brand amplification initiatives involving nationally recognized partners. These efforts are designed to deepen consumer trust and strengthen positioning in both traditional and clean-tech product verticals. The structure of these initiatives will be positioned to yield immediate and long-term net-benefits.

Looking Ahead: Positioned for a Transformational Q3 and Q4

With record-breaking monthly production, accelerating sales growth, and a projected year-end revenue target of $20 million, Worksport remains focused on executing its strategic roadmap. The Company’s upcoming launch of the COR portable energy system and SOLIS solar tonneau cover is projected for Fall 2025, is expected to unlock a new, high-margin product vertical targeting a $13 billion market.
