What’s New with the Planning Section?

 

We have been working on a number of updates to the Planning section within our website to make it a more user friendly experience for you, our clients.

In our Annual Customer Survey in December, we asked for feedback on our website. We took this feedback on board and put some plans into action to address some of the improvements we could make to help our clients do their roles more effectively and efficiently.

As always, the Planning section still hosts all the essentials you need to plan a campaign with us across AV, Audio, Digital Display and Print, but now everything is in one place for ease of use. 

Below highlights some of the additional features you will see as part of the new update: 

Structure

The structure of AV, Audio, Digital Display and Print has been implemented to reflect the structure the majority of our clients now work to.

Accordion Bar Menu

When planning media, each media has information and instructions that our clients need in order to get the task done as effectively and efficiently as possible. In RTÉ, because we work across four core media types, there is a lot of information we need to make available. The accordion bar menu feature allows us to present this information, across all media, in the clearest way for all users.

The benefits of the accordion bar function allow:

·         Users to see everything in one place

·         It supports all user paths on our website, not only typical ones.

·         Clear, logical functionality

Unique URL's

Each section within the accordion bar menu now has a unique URL so you can easily bookmark the pages you need, or reference the exact section when needed. This would not have been possible with PDF's which existed previously. 

Most Popular

This section will now automatically populate with the most visited landing pages, within the planning section only. This functionality has been developed to ensure an efficient user journey for users to find the most typically requested information.

PDF's

Where possible we have removed any unnecessary PDF's within the Planning section. Printable PDF’s still exist for information that we have considered you may wish to print.

Consolidated CMS

All information required for planning digital campaigns is now hosted within the main planning section to make it easier for users. There to fore, this was a seperate site. 

Search Function

Robust search function to aid users in finding what they need. This function will improve as the system learns what phrases users are searching for.

Archive

Where required, an archive of previous information is available for users should they need to check historic information, for instance, pricing.

Consolidated Terms and Conditions

We have updated our Terms and Conditions of Business to reflect the consolidation of all commercial media terms and conditions into one easy reference point. You can view the updated Terms and Conditions of Business here
