Overview of iPro IPS™ Modules

The iPro IPS™ was designed to suit the needs of most online publishers. However, every publication is different, and your online business model may call for a more customized approach. When that’s the case, iPro Modules offer a “plug-in” alternative to custom application development.

Please review this summary listing of current iPro IPS™ modules:

iPro Circulator

Online fulfillment is the buzz of the publishing industry, and with good reason. Nothing does more to help eliminate off-line conversion messes and at the same time streamline circulation processes. iPro Circulator is the only hosted fulfillment application on the market that is natively integrated with online content management.

Circulator automates many of the circulation and fulfillment processes that offline systems performed in the past. With Circulator, your staff can find, view, and edit subscriber records via browser, track online purchases, edit subscription types, and manage promotional lists. Plus, with Circulator you can sell paid access to online titles on a group, company, or department-wide basis.

Get iPro Circulator working for you, and your staff can deploy more online marketing efforts, create more new products, and generate more new revenue than has ever been possible through an online publishing system.

iPro Catalog

If online product sales figure big into your business model, the iPro Catalog is the module to have! With the versatile iPro Catalog module, you can set up a simple online product catalog or construct a full-scale virtual storefront. This module enables your staff to create new product or service pages, write descriptions, upload photos or illustrations, enter pricing, and more. And as you rack up the sales, you can pull detailed online sales reporting on a real-time basis so you can see how well you are doing at any time.

Plus, since e-commerce is already integrated into the system, the entire purchasing process stays within your domain and is associated with your brand. Include this module with your IPS installation and your customers will never again have to leave your site to transact with an unfamiliar third party.

iPro Events

Become the center of attention by adding a versatile event calendar to your publishing system. With iPro Events, your editorial staff can create and edit event descriptions, upload photos and illustrations, and manage a complete online calendar. Your readers can search for event by date, by event type, or by other criteria you may specify.

Here is the really fun part: your iPro Events module can become a productive revenue-producer. Each event in the calendar can be linked to the same powerful e-commerce system that processes all your other site transactions, so you can sell event registrations and maintain customer lists online. There’s more: couple this exciting module with the system’s electronic marketing capability, and you can deploy e-mails to permission lists to promote your events and help you sell more registrations. A detailed, on-demand reporting function tracks and displays all the transactions that pass through the calendar system.

Want to make your electronic title the go-to destination for trade show, conference, expo, seminar, CE, and other event information? Include iPro Events with your IPS installation.
