Agency
Plus
Agency
Plus actually consists of two main modules, Mail Plan and
List Order. This direct mail management and list ordering
software will oversee projects from start to finish.
Detailed statistical reports can be generated from Agency
Plus to permit your staff to optimize direct mail
programs.
Mail
Plan
Mail
Plan is a state of the art system for the creation of
mail plans. It supports projections, request for quotes,
vendor quote comparisons, purchase orders, acquisition
and donor key code schedules, importation of statistical
returns, statistical reporting, and client aged payables
against purchase orders. Mail Plan is fully integrated
with the List Order system.
Mail Plan was
designed with the direct mail agency in mind. Whether
working for ad agencies or in-house for-profit clients,
Agency Plus is the necessary tool to get mailings out on
time and on budget. In one integrated system, all of the
necessary tools to plan and implement mailings are
keystrokes away. Agency Plus manages the creation of
client mail plans, specs, bids, awards of components to
vendors, creation of client budgets, cost documentation
and payment tracking to vendors. The statistical analysis
section is standard with many reports, which detail the
performance of various mailings. Complementing the agency
side of the software is the List Order component, which
incorporates two critical aspects of the list industry,
management and brokerage.
As clients expand
their efforts and conduct direct mail projects in
different countries, Agency Plus is able to meet their
needs. Agency Plus has been designed to manage mail plans
and list ordering not only on the U.S.-domestic level,
but on the international level as well. The software is
capable of accurately maintaining individual country
configurations, specifically, currencies, date fields,
and mailing address layouts - areas that traditionally
have been problematic for the direct mail
industry.
List
Order
List
Order allows for the list brokerage of client mailings as
well as the management of client lists for use by
others.
The List Order
system is a complete system for the list business. It
allows for very quick entry of rental and management
orders. Order delivery and invoicing are also expedited
by just a few "clicks". List Order also contains Accounts
Receivable, Accounts Payable, and a full suite of reports
to help manage sales, list exchanges, and list owners'
lists.
The List Order
component itself comes with its own accounting program,
extensive reporting capabilities, and exchange record
management - a resource of particular interest because of
the ability to generate exchange summaries/exchange
balances.
The analysis of
any mail plan is essential in determining past
performance and in forecasting upcoming projects. Agency
Plus not only coordinates the execution of mail plans and
list ordering, but also provides a full complement of
reporting features. Accurate statistical reporting is one
of the many strengths of the program. Included among the
statistical reports are weekly reports by individual job
IDs, job statistical summaries by client, and fiscal year
job statistical summaries. Agency Plus is also capable of
handling rollover income/statistics for each client based
on the clients fiscal year or calendar.
