Let’s talk about publishing
t What does it mean to go from here…
t To here…
t …and here?
t One thing is obvious: Magazine publishers haven’t had it easy…
t Over the past few decades, they had to:
x Adapt to completely new production methods…
x Deal with the first wave of the Web…
x Adapt to the mobile revolution…
t And that’s without even mentioning…
x …social media…
x …platform publishing…
x …the challenges of digital advertising…
x And we are just getting started…
t In other words: It’s time to look at doing things more efficiently
t What does magazine publishing look like today?

t Magazine workflows in the digital age: Organically grown — and often not very optimized
t Sharing assets on a server is not enough any more
x The print publication dominates, yet all the other channels have become essential too
x Different teams have very different needs for the same basic content
x Coordination between different teams can be a nightmare
t Magazines are very different from publications such as newspapers
x Magazines are excellence-driven
x That means that simple re-purposing of print-content is usually not enough
x Organizing and managing a coherent creative direction for all channels can be challenging
t And the result? I suppose you have guessed…
t Bottlenecks of the unmanaged magazine workflow

Different teams have entirely different content requirements for the same story.
This often results in content being re-created from scratch for every output channel
Multiplication of output channels results in redundant multiple instances of the same asset. This reduces efficiency, and increases management issues down the line
While the print publication usually dominates, It is almost impossible for the creative and
strategic stakeholders to manage the entire portfolio of output channels in a coherent way

t Benefits of a managed workflow: Some of the key aspects to look out for
t One: Managing the print publication more efficiently

x It is essential to store and make assets reusable efficiently, without clogging up the system
t Three: Managing the collaboration between teams in a streamlined way
x Digital publishing means finding an optimized way for all different groups and teams to collaborate efficiently
t Four: Creating an efficient pipeline for all digital outputs
