Cable Network Advertising System

Work with staff of eight consultants to maintain and enhance several Paradox based systems. Together these systems are responsible for managing the entire flow of advertising from Quotations to On Air Scheduling.  They process and report on over $200 million in business on an annual basis. My expertise has been applied to design, code and install a true “Production” environment featuring change control, redundant backups, security and alpha and beta development areas.

Cable Network Advertising Sales

For a major cable network, led a small team of developers making enhancements to and deploying a system that provided salespeople with the capability to maximize advertising revenue. It let them quickly scan amongst a large demographic database and cross-referenced with the programming catalog and scheduling system to allow salespeople to suggest the most profitable time-slots and packages available at the time a potential  advertiser submitted a inquiry.

Quotation System Enhancements

These enhancements to an already existing system helped speed operations and added automated error recovery   procedures.   Additional   software   was   developed   for   purging,   archiving,   reporting   and maintenance purposes. This was for a printing firm.

Quotations System

Developed for a printing firm, this system was used in the inside sales department and ran in a LAN environment of  ten workstations. The software allows users to input specifications about the print job and calculates pricing. It also tracks ordering information and provides management with several statistical reports. The system also incorporates the ability to automatically FAX out a quotation.
