 * I have been asked to design an Ad Entry System. Is there anyway that I can make
   a wordpress site, for members/in-house for the company that can take these specs?
 * Ad Entry System: For both print and/or online
    PS: I have a programming background,
   but that is it. I cannot hardcode too much.
 * Mobile Friendly
 * SALES SIDE
    Able to login using Mobile and Browser Sales people can submit an
   array of information regarding client Dates, Ad Sizes, Ad itself if camera ready,
   etc etc Sales People can look up their individual Ad system that they have submitted
 * Production Side
    Able to download CSV of file with information per week to create
   or to place

 * I think you can do anything with WordPress but the question is should you? There
   are other sales tools out there are already made to answer those specs.

 * I have been researching about it, but I am not able to find a fit for it. Would
   you so kind to site me some examples.
 * I was just thinking also that since wordpress has a very powerful database system,
   that I can utilize it for that purpose. If not, please give me some example Software
   that I can start from. Thank you

 * Filemaker Pro is also a really flexible and powerful DB system – and can be configured
   to run on a server and be accessible on the web for multiple users. Not cheap
   and a pretty steep learning curve, but does a lot. Can also likely be integrated
   with a WP site – but would require custom coding.

 * Normally I do like to recommend WordPress (hey, this is the right place to do
   that!) but in your case there’s other things out there that are much better suited
   to the job.
 * For serving ads, pretty much the only free open-source option out there that 
   works even half way good is [Revive Ad Server](http://www.revive-adserver.com/).
   You may need to do some customisation on it depending on what your teams needs
   are, but it’s defiantely a lot better starting point as it’s got a whole lot 
   of built-in smarts for serving ads correctly.

 * **soulcryst** what was your solution to the above? I have a similar site I’m 
   building.
 * Thanks
