Previously, ad managers had to go through a service rep if they needed make any amendments to their ads or the information that goes with them.
"There are some early adopters who are comfortable with self-service," Verizon spokeswoman Dana Benton Russell said. "They will appreciate and use the self-service option. There's a large group that's not as comfortable with it yet, so the service center is an option for them."
