Accelerator Components
Ad Sales Management brings cross-channel planning and execution, automated client reporting, and campaign optimization together on a single platform to help drive revenue for publishers. Maximize advertising revenue by bringing together media planning across channels and analyzing campaign performance from multiple first- and third-party sources. Our accelerator components include:
-
Relationship Manager
The Media Relationship Manager enables your team to better manage every complex agency, advertiser, and brand relationship in one easy to use component. It provides the ability to configure and define relationship types the way you want while easily defining the agency of record and understanding key contacts. You’ll gain insight into complex relationships to understand key contacts.
-
Projections Tool
Save time and gain insight into your high-level revenue forecasts earlier for upfronts, scatter, and more on early-stage opportunities, without the need to input vast amounts of media plan details. You can quickly identify early-stage spend projections by advertiser and agency, while viewing projected revenue by the categories you sell (i.e. broadcast vs. digital vs. print). Get access to high-level forecasts earlier with insight into configurable categories of spend and expected dates of delivery.

Pricing Toolkit
The Pricing Toolkit enables your team to quickly and easily add your products to any Salesforce opportunity. Unique attributes for every product ensure each line item price is automatically calculated using the real-time media calculator. It provides the ability to manage and sell multiple media types the way you want, and sell across broadcast, digital, print, and more with custom attributes and rate cards for every product you sell. You can quickly produce detailed media plan summaries by product, flight dates, and other key reporting values.

Revenue Scheduler
Automatically schedule the revenue for every opportunity based on how your business sells and delivers campaigns across multiple product lines. From broadcast to digital and print, our revenue scheduler will give your teams the ability to forecast everything from a single platform. Whether you need revenue aggregated monthly based on daily prorated values or evenly distributed across calendar quarters, our MRS empowers you with a real-time view of revenue and allows you to compare your revenue forecasts with your actuals.
-
Revenue Schedule with Splits
Take your revenue scheduling to the next level with revenue splits across your sales team to ensure the right people get recognized for their sales efforts. Media sales can be complicated, but whether a sale involves one, two, or ten team members, our MRSS will keep your teams tracking towards their budgets with 100% accuracy.
-
Budget Manager
Track and manage budgets for your entire business from a single dashboard. Quickly review a seller, manager, or team’s current pacing against budgets and identify potential gaps so your team can focus on what drives revenue for your business. Budget Manager allows you to gain insight into upfront and scatter pacing by product category or other key values, and allows you the flexibility to support different budget models as your business grows.
