- Each of the super administrator, global administrators and local administrators have the authority to establish local lists of subscribers and to assemble communications and distribute communications to their subscribers.
- Local administrators are not authorized to establish any other type of administrator.
- a "subscriber" and variants thereon are recipients of communications. Subscribers may actively subscribe to receive communications or may be selected by an administrator to receive communications.
- step 54 administrators set up local subscriber information (step 54) including sufficient details as are necessary to transmit communications to subscribers, for example email addresses if communications are to be transmitted by electronic networks. Many different methods and systems are known for collecting and managing such data, including in one embodiment the use of the Microsoft Excel® spreadsheet program.
- Administrators assemble and distribute communications (step 56) to subscribers in the manner described in detail below. Administrators also perform necessary system maintenance and management (step 58), pertinent examples of which are described herein.
- FIG. 3 the hierarchical relationship and interaction of administrators and subscribers is shown in block diagram 60, including a super administrator 42B associated with the operation of publication management system 22 ( Figure 1).
- Various other administrators are associated with a first entity 62 and a second entity 64.
- Entities 62 and 64 may comprise, for example, companies who are clients, procuring the services of publication management system 22.
- entities 62 and 64 may comprise, for example, companies who are clients, procuring the services of publication management system 22.
- all references to content in Figure 3 comprise content available from publication content database 28 in publication management system 22 and are appropriately numbered.
- the content may, in various instances, be imported from 3 rd -party sources, created locally and/or received by assignment from an administrator.
- All references to administrators comprise various administrators as show at 42A-42N and are appropriately numbered.
- All references to subscriber lists comprise subscriber sets from subscriber database 34 and are also appropriately numbered. As described below, subscriber lists are typically created and maintained locally for use by an administrator.
- the term 'locally' and variants thereof is indicative of a function performed directly by a party under discussion, typically an administrator, as opposed to a function performed by another.
- 'Local' is not indicative of a geographic location.
- computer networking technology generally enables any user of a system to work from any geographical location.
- super administrators such as 42B are noted above to have certain authorizations in accordance with the present invention, including the authorizations to: i) establish global administrators, ii) establish content in publication content database 28, iii) select content from database 28 for assembly and communication to global and local administrators, iv) establish subscriber lists for global and/or local administrators, and v) perform certain administrative functions with respect to publication management system 22 such as a) setting up customer-companies to use the system and b) establishing one or more global administrators within each newly established company.
- super administrators are associated directly with the ownership and operation of publication management system 22 and do not establish their own subscriber lists.
- super administrator 42B has established a global administrator 42C within entity 62 and a global administrator 42D within entity 64.
- global administrators have certain authorizations in accordance with the present invention, including the authorizations to: i) establish other global administrators, ii) establish local administrators, iii) establish subscriber lists, iv) establish content in publication content database 28, v) select content from database 28 for assembly and communication to subscribers, vi) add subscribers to local administrator subscriber lists, and vii) select content from accessible content to assign and thereby make available to other global administrators and to local administrators.
- Global administrator 42C has access to content 28B and has established a local administrator 42E and another global administrator 42F.
- Global administrator 42C has also established a subscriber list 34B.
- global administrator42F has established three local administrators indicated at 42G, 42H and 421.
- local administrators have authorizations to i) establish subscriber lists, ii) establish content in publication content database 28, iii) select content from established content for assembly and communication to subscribers, and iv) select content from content assigned by higher-level super and global administrators to make available to local administrators for assembly and communication to subscribers.
- local administrators may only access content established by them and content to which access has been granted by one or more super or global administrators. Local administrators do not have access to broader ranges of content in publication content database 28. Neither do local administrators have authorization to establish other administrators.
- the phrases 'establish content' and 'have access to content' and variants thereon are used to describe three methods of accessing content: i) the actual creation of content, for example the drafting of a text article, ii) accessing content assigned by higher-level administrators, and iii) the procurement of content from a content provider 36A-36N.
- the phrase 'establish a [global or local] administrator' and variants thereon are used to describe the process of creating on publication management system 22 a computer user identity with the appropriate administrator authorizations, accesses and permissions as described herein.
- global administrator 42F is seen to have access to content 28C and have created subscriber list 34C.
- Local administrator 42E is seen to have access to content 281 and to have created subscriber list 34E.
- Local administrators 42G, 42H and 421 are seen to have access to content 28D, 28E and 28F, respectively, and to have created subscriber lists 34F, 34G and34H, respectively.
- global administrator 42D is seen to have established one local administrator 42K and to have access to content 28G to assemble communications for distribution to subscribers 341.
- Local administrator 42K is seen to have access to content 28H to assemble communications for distribution to subscribers 34J.
- Console 70 or operator screen, is shown of the type used by super, global and local administrators to manage content.
- Console 70 typically displayed on a computer terminal of the type used by an administrator, displays multiple categories of manageable content, three of which are shown for purposes of explanation at 72, 74 and 76. It will be seen that the category areas 72, 74, 76 are separated by dashed lines. It will be understood that any number of content categories may be displayed as will fit on one screen of the terminal displaying console 70, with multiple screens or pages used to display more content category areas and more articles.
- each content category area 72, 74, 76 is displayed a short category description, one of which is shown in each category area, and a list of available content, herein described as articles.
- Two articles are displayed in content category area 72 as indicated by Article Description I and Article Description II.
- Associated with each article are a series of administrator-operable switches, typically in the form of computer screen radio buttons to the right of and in-line with each article description. Several switches are indicated generally at 80.
- switches are provided for functions associated with managing articles, in the illustrated embodiment labeled switches are provided for: editing the article, deleting the article, previewing the article, setting the position of the article, that is one button to raise the position within the associated category list and one button to lower the position whereby to affect the location of the article in the assembled communication, and enabling the article for inclusion within a communication.
- Articles that are not enabled will remain manageable on console 70 but will not be included in a subsequently generated communication.
- console 70 Many different commercially available methods and systems are known in the art for creating console 70 and providing the described functionality, including but not limited to most conventional spreadsheet and database programs. It is desirable that publication management system 22 provide the functionality, through console 70, to add, edit, preview and otherwise work with all commercially known content formats and their processor-editors, including text editors, graphic editors, audio editors and video editors.
- content category area 72 is seen to include two articles while category area 74 includes one article, Article III Description, and category area 76 includes no articles.
- the upper left corner of operator screen 70 includes a switch labeled "Add New Content Category” which enables an administrator to create a new content area and insert a content description.
- Each of content category areas 72, 74 and 76 contain a switch labeled "Add Article” which enables an administrator to insert a new article within the content area, thereby establishing content for use in communications in accord with the various methods described herein.
- the administrator establishes local content for management through console 70. Any desired new content may be established by adding it into publication management system 22 using operator console 70 as described above (step 84). As noted above, content may be imported from content providers 36A-36N or created by an administrator. Further through the use of the 'Add New Content Category', 'Add Article' and 'enable' functions on console 70, the administrator selects from amongst newly added content and existing content for management and inclusion in a communication (step 86). As described elsewhere herein, existing content includes both content added by the administrator as well as content selected for his or her access by assignment of a global administrator.
- Level A content may include many different types of sub-content, that is text, graphics, audio, video, etc. in many different formats, for example articles, pictures, audio files, video files, graphics, audio and video embedded in text, etc.
- Shown in Figure 5 is an exemplary communication 100 assembled by super administrator 42B comprising two items: Level A, sub-content A and Level A, sub-content B, for example an article containing text and a graphical illustration.
- the administrator may again use the various switches on console 70 to edit content (step 88) as well as to position and/or delete and/or preview content (step 90).
- Super and global administrators may assign content available to him or her, that is the Level A content, to lower-level global and/or local administrators. This may be done, for example, through console 70 or through another operator screen designed to receive and associate assigned administrators with particular content. Further, super administrators have the ability to place content into pre-defined categories within pre-defined communications whereby to automatically assign and make such content available to all global and local administrators having access to such communications.
- the communication is transmitted to the list of subscribers associated with the administrator (step 94).
- Many different methods can be used to facilitate this transmission, including but not limited to: i) providing a control screen by which the administrator who assembled the communication may initiate the transmission, and ii) providing a mechanism whereby the administrator may assign or request another party, such as the super administrator, to initiate the transmission.
- the transmission is done electronically through e-mail, any other appropriate distribution method including but not hardcopy, radio-frequency or video-frequency transmission or others may be used.
- Subscribers may receive transmission on any appropriate reception device including but not limited to a computer terminal, mobile personal digital assistant, mobile phone, facsimile or other appropriate apparatus.
- a super administrator and all global administrators may assign content 'down' to other global and local administrators, selecting that content for distribution to and availability for use by the assigned administrators.
- a global administrator such as global administrators 42C and 42D
- each may import or otherwise establish, in the manner described above, their own content, described herein as Level B content, the 'Level B' label indicating there is a higher level administrator in the publication management system hierarchy who may assign access to content down to level B administrators.
- super administrator 42B has assigned access to Level A content to global administrator 42C but not to global administrator 42D.
- communication 102 is illustrative of a communication that can be assembled by global administrator 42D. With no access to Level A content, global administrator 42D may assemble a communication from Level B content only, communication 102 shown to include three content items Level B: sub- content A, sub-content B and sub-content C.
- this global administrator may assemble a communication of the type shown at 104, including content items from both Level A and Level B content.
- communication 106 is illustrative of a communication that may be assembled and distributed by local administrator 42E. With no access assigned to Level A or Level B content, local administrator 42E may assemble communication 106 to contain only locally established, Level C content. In contrast to local administrator 42G, because global administrator 42F has been assigned access to both Level A and Level B content, this global administrator may create a communication such as that shown at 108, including content items from each of Levels A, B, and C.
- super and global administrators may assign access to content 'down' to both global and local administrators by individual content item, content category, and/or the totality of a particular level of content.
- publication management system 22 may be operated by an independent operator or by an insurance company.
- Entities 60 and 64 each comprise an independent insurance company such as State Farm or Mutual of Omaha or another.
- the global and local administrators within each entity 60 and 64 comprise various branch office agents and agent-managers.
- super administrator 42B will establish Level A articles of general interest in the insurance industry, generally assigning all customer-companies access to the Level A content. Level A content of particular interest only to one or several companies may only be assigned to those one or several companies.
- Each insurance agent/administrator interested in sending a newsletter(s) to clients will, through selecting, assembling and editing assigned and/or locally established content, create a newsletter. Each agent may preview their completed newsletter and then initiate the transmission of that newsletter to their subscribers. [0059] It will thus be seen that the present invention enables the sharing of articles of interest in a hierarchical manner across the entire insurance industry for purposes of assembling newsletters. The applicability of the invention to essentially limitless other industries or environments will now be apparent to the reader.
- Administrative functions include: the management of subscriber lists, management of administrative accounts including identities and authorizations, updating and management of content, updating and management of various user screens and interfaces and other administrative functions as are pertinent to the operation of the publication management system.
- the invention provides the advantage of being able to track pertinent statistical data and generate reports for use by the administrators.
- the system provides the ability to track and report on, amongst other statistics: i) subscriber statistics, including new subscribers, terminated subscribers and total subscribers at any level within the system, ii) based on e-mail management, the number of times any given piece of content was reviewed, including the number of times it was viewed by any individual subscriber, and iii) statistics relating to the number and particular ones of undeliverable emails.
- the invention provides numerous tools including computer operations and user interfaces that facilitate the easy establishment of various user identities, authorizations and permissions.
- the invention further provides numerous tools facilitating the importation and sharing of content, the assembly of content into communications and the transmission of communications to parties on manageable subscriber lists.
- the invention dramatically simplifies the efforts and costs associated with generating communications between business and customers across entire industries.
- the invention has substantial application in the communications industry.
