IMPORTANT NOTE: This option is not available for Customers or Ad Agencies.
Sales Representatives, Sales Assistants, and Team Leads may have a need to order Spec Ads. Spec Ads typically cannot be ordered in traditional order entry systems, as there is no revenue tied to it yet. As such, ATOL provides a way to request these types of ads from Ad Production.
Reasons for using the New Spec Ad form might include:
•You need to order a New Spec Ad or New Spec Ad Campaign.
•You need to start production on an ad that is not able to be ordered yet (ie. publication or rate is unavailable in order entry system due to pending setup).
•Your order entry system does not allow remote order entry, you are out at a client or on the road, and you want to get production started immediately.
To order a New Spec Ad, click on the NEW AD menu and then click NEW SPEC AD.
You will be presented with your organizations NEW SPEC AD ORDER form. Answer all questions shown.
Once you have added all necessary sizes, click the NEXT button.
At this point, the balance of the process is identical to "Submitting Ad Copy".
