How to Create a Contract

When you create a campaign in Geneva, you must also include a contract that specifies the product, dates, and terms of the campaign.

Before you begin:

Procedure:

  1. Search for the campaign you are creating the contract for, and then click the campaign ID link for that campaign in the search results list. The Campaign Maintenance page opens, with the Contracts tab active. (You can skip this step if you are creating a contract at the same time that you create the campaign.)

  2. On the Contracts tab of the Campaign Maintenance page, click Add. The Campaign Maintenance page refreshes with a form to create the contract.

  3. Provide the contract information. Information for the following boxes are required:

    • Reseller Product: Select the reseller product that will be sold under the new contract. If the advertiser does not have a Web site (if you entered http://nowebsite.com for their URL), be sure to select a contract that includes the WebVisible Landing Pages product.

    • Units: This box becomes available after you select a reseller product. The information you enter depends on the type of product on which the reseller product is based:

      • For reseller products that include a budget product, you must specify the dollar amount of the total budget amount available for the duration of the contract. The default amount is the total budget amount that has been previously set up for the selected reseller product. Typically you should not have to change this amount. If you do change this amount, be sure to enter the total budget amount for the entire contract as opposed to the monthly budget.

      • For reseller products that include the Guaranteed Clicks product, you must specify the number of clicks being guaranteed for the duration of the contract. The default amount is the number of clicks that have been previously set up for the selected reseller product. Typically you should not have to change this number.

      • For reseller products that include a Call Tracking number, you must specify the advertiser’s current phone number and a requested area code for the new call tracking number. Enter only numbers, without dashes or any other characters. When a call tracking number is assigned, that phone number can be entered as the allocated number. Also, if the advertiser has service locations specified on the Locations tab, select the service location to associate with the call tracking number.

      • For reseller products that include the Landing Pages product, the number of landing pages included with the product is specified by default. You cannot change this number.

    • Start Date: Specify the date on which the contract will start. You can click the calendar icon to select the date from a calendar. The start date is the date that the selected product in the contract starts running. It must be at least one day in the future from the current date.

    • End Date: Specify the date on which the contract will end. You can click the calendar icon to select the date from a calendar. The end date is the date that the selected product in the contract stops running. It must be a date that is from 30 days to 24 months after the start date.

  4. Click OK.
