See how we've helped media companies like yours overcome their biggest challenges and achieve remarkable growth. Our tailored solutions deliver measurable impact where it matters most.
Streamlining Production for a Fast-Growing TV Studio
Client Overview: A mid-sized television production studio specializing in unscripted content was struggling to manage multiple concurrent projects. Their reliance on spreadsheets and disconnected software led to frequent budget overruns, scheduling conflicts, and a lack of visibility for executives.
Problem: Without a centralized system, the studio couldn't accurately track project costs in real-time or optimize the scheduling of expensive resources like camera crews and editing suites. This operational inefficiency was eroding their profit margins and hindering their ability to scale.
Key Challenges:
- Inaccurate budget tracking and forecasting.
- Constant scheduling conflicts for crew and equipment.
- Lack of a single source of truth for project status.
- Time-consuming manual reporting for stakeholders.
Our Solution:
We implemented ArionERP's Production Planning and Project Accounting modules, creating a unified platform for all production activities. The solution provided:
- A central dashboard for real-time project financials.
- An integrated scheduling tool to manage all resources.
- Automated workflows for purchase orders and expense approvals.
- Customizable reports for producers and executives.
"ArionERP transformed our operations. We finally have a clear, real-time view of every project's financial health and schedule. It's been a game-changer for our profitability and growth."
Automating Royalties for a Global Digital Publisher
Client Overview: A leading digital publisher with a vast catalog of articles, e-books, and syndicated content was drowning in the complexity of their licensing and royalty agreements. Their manual, spreadsheet-based system was prone to errors, leading to incorrect payments and missed revenue opportunities.
Problem: The publisher was struggling to accurately calculate and distribute royalties to hundreds of authors and partners, each with unique contract terms. This not only created administrative headaches but also exposed them to financial risk and damaged relationships with their content creators.
Key Challenges:
- Complex and varied royalty calculation rules.
- High risk of over or under-payment.
- Inability to easily identify new licensing opportunities.
- Lack of transparency for authors and partners.
Our Solution:
We deployed ArionERP's Rights & Royalties Management module. The system was configured to handle all of their specific contract types and automate the entire process. Key features included:
- A contract management system to digitize all agreements.
- An automated royalty calculation engine.
- A rights availability dashboard to identify unsold rights.
- A secure portal for authors to view their statements.
"The accuracy and efficiency gains from ArionERP's royalty module are incredible. We've reclaimed countless hours of manual work and, more importantly, we've strengthened the trust we have with our authors."
Unifying Workflows for a Creative Advertising Agency
Client Overview: A full-service advertising agency was hampered by creative workflow silos. Teams used different tools for project management, asset storage, and client approvals, resulting in version control issues, missed feedback, and delayed campaign launches.
Problem: The lack of a central hub for creative assets and project information meant that account managers, creatives, and clients were often working with outdated information. This led to rework, frustrated clients, and a slower time-to-market for campaigns.
Key Challenges:
- Assets scattered across emails, cloud drives, and local servers.
- Difficulty tracking client feedback and approval history.
- Inefficient handoffs between creative, media, and account teams.
- Lack of visibility into project progress and resource capacity.
Our Solution:
We implemented a tailored ArionERP solution combining our Digital Asset Management (DAM) and Project Management modules. This created a single, unified workspace for the entire agency:
- A centralized DAM for all creative files with version control.
- Standardized project templates with clear stages and tasks.
- An integrated client portal for streamlined review and approval.
- Resource management tools to balance workloads effectively.
"With ArionERP, our entire agency is finally on the same page. Our creative process is faster, more collaborative, and our clients love the transparency of the new approval portal."
