Brainworks provides a unified solution. Through a single database, Brainworks manages all of your advertising: display, classified and preprints, as well as billing, accounts receivable, contracts, layout, pagination, marketing, sales force automation and web/palm integration.

Brainworks Sets the Standard
When Brainworks released the first Windows based newspaper billing software over a decade ago, a new standard was set for software, which was user friendly, flexible, and powerful. Since that time, Brainworks has continued to raise those standards every year.
Customer Service - Be a Hero to Your Advertisers
Clear and concise billing statements and invoices are custom made. Preview payments received. Your business office will be efficient, in control, and accountable to advertisers and to management.
Speed Through your Daily Operations
Paper checking, cash receipts, adjustments, collections, agency, coop, contracts, credit, invoicing and more all become easy to manage with Brainworks smart, powerful, Windows TM based software.
Strong Accounting - Flexible Reporting
Print an aging or cash report from last month or last year. Generate a statement from two months ago. Because all reports are date driven, they can be printed for any date range specified. All this and more is possible with Brainworks - a billing system with the horsepower to make your billing process a snap.

Brainworks makes quick and easy work of closing the month. Calculate finance charges, short rates and rebates, print statements, calculate late contracts and earned rates, all without affecting advertising or other normal billing department operations.
