In today’s competitive broadcast landscape, margins are tight, and expectations are high. Broadcasters are under pressure to monetize content more efficiently, reduce operational overhead, and deliver campaigns with precision across multiple platforms.
In this case study, we’ll explore how a regional TV broadcaster achieved a 40% revenue uplift within just six months by adopting EBIMS Studio, an all-in-one broadcast management and revenue automation platform.
💡 Spoiler: It wasn’t just about automation—it was about unlocking hidden revenue, speeding up billing cycles, and streamlining sales-to-air workflows.
The Client: A Regional TV Broadcaster with National Ambitions
Client Profile:
- 3 Local TV Channels & 1 Regional FM Station
- 100+ Advertisers across Retail, FMCG, and Government
- Manual ad scheduling and invoicing processes
- High dependence on Excel and WhatsApp for coordination
- Revenue leakage due to human errors and missed slots
Despite strong content and a loyal audience, the client struggled with:
- Delayed invoicing and ad proof delivery
- Unused inventory due to poor visibility
- Advertiser churn due to lack of transparency
The Challenges
Before switching to EBIMS, the broadcaster faced several bottlenecks:
1. Inefficient Ad Scheduling
Traffic teams were manually allocating ad slots, often leading to:
- Double bookings
- Missed high-value slots
- Underutilization of non-prime time
2. No Unified System
Sales, traffic, accounts, and creative teams were working in silos. Data was spread across:
- Excel sheets
- Email threads
- Local desktop folders
3. Delayed Billing & Cash Flow
Generating and sending invoices used to take 10–15 days to post a campaign. That meant:
- Delayed revenue realization
- Difficult advertiser follow-ups
- Poor cash flow management
The EBIMS Solution
The broadcaster implemented EBIMS Studio across all three channels and their FM station.

- Smart Scheduler – for auto-scheduling ad slots with drag-and-drop control
- Real-Time Inventory Manager – to avoid overlaps and spot unused capacity
