The Repository Proofs, Tears, and Invoices with Presteligence

October 22, 2008 — North Canton, OH

The Repository (Canton, Ohio) signed an agreement with Presteligence for Adinfinitum, a hosted advertising self-service portal which will deliver proofs, tearsheets, and invoices to The Rep’s advertising clients.   

After looking at other suppliers, The Repository ranked Adinfinitum as the most user-friendly site.  They were most impressed with how in one click; users could see the invoice, the tearsheet billed on the invoice, and the approved proof of the ad.  One of the biggest cost savings comes from the decrease in the number of hand-delivered proofs to advertising clients.  “Having a centralized location for advertisers to upload and proof ads will create efficiencies in our office and in our clients as well,” said Kevin Ackerman, Director of Operations for The Repository.   “We will be able to provide improved customer service and faster proof turnaround.”

From an advertiser’s perspective, Adinfinitum manages the entire ad process for them—alerting them through emails when it’s their ‘turn’ to do something.  For instance, clients get emails when ads are proof-ready, when ads are approaching deadline, and when tearsheets and invoices are available.  Other notifications reach advertisers and/or production staff when ad material is uploaded and ads error during preflight. 

The Repository felt confident in Presteligence’s ability to deliver a quality product at an affordable price since they’ve already deployed an array of Presteligence products including NewsXtreme, Xtreme Inking, Ink-Miser, AudioNewsstand, Blackmagic, and GUSS.  Ackerman says, “Presteligence has already proven their value to us through its people, support and workflow products, Adinfinitum will expand that value to other areas of our organization.” 

The close distance between the two companies enables The Repository and Presteligence to facilitate face to face, hands-on training with the staff and advertising clients.
