About

Marq, formerly known as Lucidpress, is an American Fork, Utah-based brand templating platform that rebranded in 2021 to better reflect its focus on brand consistency and distributed marketing enablement. The platform allows marketing and brand teams to create locked, customizable templates for a wide range of content types—brochures, flyers, social media graphics, presentations, real estate listings, newsletters, and digital ads—that non-designer stakeholders can edit within brand-safe parameters. By locking elements like fonts, colors, logos, and layouts, brand teams can maintain visual consistency while empowering local teams, franchisees, sales representatives, and regional marketers to produce on-brand materials independently.
