About The Magazine Manager

The Magazine Manager is a web-based CRM solution designed to help digital and print publishers streamline operations in an ever-changing media environment.

Magazine Manager’s rapidly expanding product line includes a world-class customer relationship management platform, a sales pipeline opportunities module, an order management system that handles print orders, events, and digital products, a complete editorial module, the most powerful billing module in the magazine media industry, a detailed accounts receivable system, and a complete reporting suite.

The Magazine Manager's customer relationship management module enables businesses to build, categorize and search the customer database based on names, phone numbers, emails, companies, and addresses, among other categories.

Through the creation of ad orders or rate cards and ad inventory management, The Magazine Manager helps publishers streamline the entire print and digital advertising lifecycles. Any type of media buy can be accurately managed, including email newsletters, website ads, events, and bulk media buys.

Created with a built-in electronic signature system, Magazine Manager helps to streamline and automate the proposal approval process by allowing sales staff to send electronic, legally binding documents to be signed and approved. Once signed and approved, the proposal will be automatically approved within the CRM.

Thanks to Magazine Manager’s collaborative production and project management module, publishers can rest assured that nothing falls through the cracks. Designed with customizable project stages and Project Timeline, any type of media buy can be accurately tracked and managed. Team members receive live production updates of ad units, submit real-time feedback, and track time estimates of ongoing projects. And, with Magazine Manager’s automation engine, the module even sends out automated notifications about upcoming material deadlines.

The digital software also enables publishing professionals to paginate publications and editions, conduct flat planning, and determine article and advertisement layouts.

The Magazine Manager's powerful reporting suite gives publishers insight into performance and profitability. Any information logged within the system can be effortlessly tracked and monitored. Our powerful Analytics Dashboard allows businesses to build entirely customized reports with over 300 data tiles to choose from and extensive customization options.

Magazine Manager has several options to get publishers paid faster. From Quick Pay and auto-pay to Payment Card Industry-compliance, The Magazine Manager can reconcile multiple bills effortlessly and even in batches. The Magazine Manager also integrates with QuickBooks accounting, giving publishing businesses the power to perform transactions, collect payments, store invoices, and prepare custom reports based on aging A/R summaries, sales agent performance, and conversion rate analysis.

With Magazine Manager's Gmail integration, users are able to send targeted emails to groups of ten through a Gmail account. We’ve also created our own Google Chrome extension that connects a user’s Gmail account to our CRM allowing them to see Magazine Manager notes within their Gmail, add notes to Contact Records through their Gmail, and even copy emails and email attachments directly into the CRM.
