[cma-l] Advert scheduling

I also like the facility with Ad Manager when we can tightly schedule adverts. For instance, we have a take-away client where the order is four plays a day, Mon-Thur 4pm to 7pm, with two pieces of audio that alteranate weekn on week. We can schedule that easily.

For reporting, we find Myriad Ad Manager is OK. 

For each piece of audio, it tracks exactly when the item was played and whether it was played in full. Also, who was logged on at the time.

This means any advertiser can be provided with a transmission certificate. That is something which any national advertiser or agency will require. Not just when the audio was scheduled, but confrmation it was actually played. 

The reporting is also useful so we can track whether any of our team are intentionally dropping the adverts. I've seen this happen at previous stations where I've been, with the excuse "the adverts don't fit in my show, I'm too busy with other stuff" !

Picking up on when to play national adverts, a suggestion was made to play them immediately after the news. That wouldn't work for those stations who take the Radio Newshub service, as that comes with adverts immediately after the bulletin. I suspect that each station will schedule national adverts within the criteria booked, but have them run across the scheduled time in any breaks.

We are very open to any national adverts sent our way :)

  Hi Bill,

  We use the old fashioned way of a paper spreadsheet created on a pc with manual insertions of how many & which time slot they should be played in.

  I'm in every week day so I can update them as needed, does use a bit of paper and tipex but works well for the time being.

  Also this way I can make sure that voices or businesses don't clash in the same advert block.

  This way hopefully they cannot be avoided or bumped down the playout list as it is written in front of them what to play when and I can check how many times it had been played on our playout system and then work out who is not playing them..... which is not advisable (I'm a scorpion...)

  It may be old fashioned but has worked well ever since we started doing our trials in 2006 and since we were allowed 2015 to run adverts after we launched full time in 2013 and the rules were changed.
