Built-In Quality control
Automated Print Preflighting
Confirm that your design work will translate to print perfectly with automated preflighting checks within Ad Sales Genius. Not only can you make automatic corrections, but preflighted ads are marked clearly in your asset library to eliminate confusion if they are to be used again.
Simple Revisions and Approvals
Integrated Ad Proofing & Review
Back-and-forth during the advertiser review process can clog email boxes and lead to delays in production. With our integrated proofing and review process, your advertisers can approve or comment their changes directly within Ad Sales Genius.
PROOF of DELIVERY
Automatic Tear Sheets
If tear sheets are taking up too much of your time, you aren’t using the right magazine management software. Ad Sales Genius simplifies the process of billing clients by automatically including a copy of the ad and the page the ad is placed on.
