Sometimes in the process of working with a client, changes need to be made to an advertiser account. There is a lot of information tied to an advertiser in Broadstreet, from advertisements to campaigns, so care should be taken when updating advertiser information and settings.

The directions below walk you through how to update an existing advertiser.

Locate the Advertiser

Navigate to the Advertisers option in the left side menu.

This opens the Advertisers page in Broadstreet. Here you can see a list of all existing advertisers in the program. Locate the advertiser you need to update and click on the advertiser’s name.

The page for the individual advertiser opens. 

Advertiser Notes

Once you’re on the advertiser’s page, you can see a section titled Advertiser Notes near the bottom of the screen. 

The notes section provides you with a space to keep track of any relevant information related to that advertiser, such as updates that need to be implemented in campaigns after meetings, reminders about future meetings, etc. 

You must click Save Notes in the bottom left in order to keep any notes you have added. If you add information to the notes section, but fail to click Save Notes before exiting the advertiser, any new information you added will be lost. 

The notes section provides all of the basic features of a word editor and you are able to do the following: 

      • Select Text Type (Heading 1-3, Normal)
      • Bold
      • Italicize
      • Underline
      • Add Hyperlinks
      • Numbered Lists
      • Bullet Point Lists
      • Remove Formatting
