Clients - Admine

Client
Admine is a B2B marketplace targeted at local and regional advertisers to buy and sell proven and original print, radio and television advertising.

Challenge
Admine’s goal is to become the first Internet marketplace to offer local and regional businesses instant, on-line access to entire print, radio and TV advertising campaigns for a fraction of the usual cost. Admine had already worked with a couple of other development firms but had experienced significant delivery problems. WebCritical was selected to pick up the pieces, resolve the design and development issues and deliver the final site within an extremely tight deadline.

Solution
Using our Rapid Application Development methodologies the site was brought under control, developed and delivered in less than four months. WebCritical quickly documented the business, functional and technical requirements for the site.

The User Interface was designed to support both buyers and sellers for the submission, selection and purchase of ad campaigns. We created the information architecture and integrated the existing brand identity into the application.

WebCritical developed a scalable, real-time database requiring update, search and maintenance features that could support a frequently changing environment and support multiple transactions. The extensive database required multiple search capabilities including 15 industry sectors, license markets by DMA, zip, county and state.

Additionally we:

  • Developed credit card processing functionality with CyberSource.
  • Extended site functionality through the use of ScreamingMedia.
  • Built geographical zone support for Nielsen media markets for use in pricing advertising in multiple markets. This included the migration of Nielsen data into Admine's Oracle database and geographic searches to locate desired market penetration of ads.

Results
Admine successfully launched in September 2000 as the first of its kind to help revolutionize the ad marketplace. They accept ad submissions from over 200 agencies worldwide and have received more than 3,000 ad campaigns for resell. The scalable technology and intuitive user interface provide seamless interaction for buyers to search 15 industry sectors, add campaigns to their Folio, review License details, search markets, request ad customization and purchase campaigns. Sellers are able to quickly upload their campaigns for resell and manage their accounts.
