Feature Summary
E-Edition Tracking
Electronic-Edition Tracking now allows publishers to track and bill e-edition only subscribers just as easily as you’ve always tracked your paid mail and home delivery subscribers. It also integrates with the USPS Statement of Ownership, Management and Circulation, PS Form 3526. This means Interlink can automate taking full advantage of the USPS rule on Electronic editions. Under the terms of this rule, you may count your electronic editions for up to 10 percent of subscriptions required to meet the 50 percent of circulation required to be paid or requested to qualify or continue to qualify for a Periodical Permit.
Understanding Subscribers
Our Subscriber Grid has expanded to include dozens of sort options adding ‘email,’ ‘autopay’ and ‘vacation start date’ among the 43 fields now available in each subscriber record. You choose as many or as few of the 43 fields as you want and apply any of the 23 filters to the list!
- Only want ID, City, ST, and ZIP Code? Done!
- Want to sort screen by ZIP Code only? Done!
- Or what about sort by ‘address change date’? Done!
Reaching Non-Subscribers
Smart Sampling™ resulted from us watching subscription counts grow in select communities while they were shrinking in many others. By applying how successful publishers were growing circulation to our software and CDS use, Smart Sampling™ was born. Publishers following the Smart Sampling™ plan are profitably adding 10 percent and more to their circulation counts every year. Smart Sampling™ allows newspapers to send sample publications only to non-subscribers to designated routes, thereby, allowing them to offer discounts or other promotions to non-subscribers only. Smart Sampling™ also allows companies to expand coverage on a one-time basis for advertisers seeking to target specific areas or for distribution of a special section or edition.
