Sell, sell, sell!  The balance between Editorial and Advertising is the difference between life and death in Publishing.  Knowing what is sold, what stage it's at and where it is placed in the publication, is critical.

PublishingMedia has developed this module specifically to answer these frustrations.  Your Advertising Sales, Booking and Planning - accessed in the same system and using only a browser.  It provides a centralised function for creating and maintaining a list of advertising prospects and customers, booking Sales and Advertising detail, building Publications and Titles, tracking Advert production status, reporting on Sales performance and planning the magazine.

At any point, a real-time view or report can be seen of the current status of Sales and Production - by Title, Issue, Customer, Sales person, Advert type or size, etc.  Giving you up-to-date information for management decisions.

And the most innovative part is the Interactive Flatplan!  No more elusive, tatty, tippexed, scribbled, paper Flatplans.  Once the Adverts are sold and allocated to pages, the system automatically builds an Interactive Flatplan, showing the extent of the Issue, allocated Advertising and Editorial areas, Advertising placed, and all colour-coded for production status!

It is truly interactive and can be shared throughout the organisation or even with the Printer.  Rolling over any of the Adverts will display its full detail.  Double-clicking allows direct access to Edit the detail and move the Advert if necessary.  There's even an area to make notes!
