Open RFPs let you respond to campaign briefs in the media your organization supplies. You can answer a relevant request without having TV or radio station inventory.
Open Open RFPs in your supplier workspace. Review the objective, audience, locations, dates, deadline, and any disclosed budget. Check Manage offered media if the categories do not reflect what you sell.
A public request can receive responses from several suppliers. A private request is intended for the selected supplier. Your draft and your quote are not shared with competing suppliers.
Add options the buyer can compare. For each one, explain:
Use net media prices, excluding the buyer's agency commission. Check prices and availability before submitting, even when Tap AI helps prepare the draft.
Review and submit the response when it is ready for the buyer. You can then use the private conversation to answer questions and discuss the quote.
If the offer changes, submit a replacement response. Withdraw it if it is no longer available. A buyer marking a response reviewed means they have read it; it does not mean they have accepted the terms.
Start your response before the deadline. If you have already started, a late submission may still be possible while the request remains open. A closed request no longer accepts new responses or messages.
Cross-media sourcing responses do not currently create Tap Orders. Agree the booking process with the buyer after they choose an option.
