Publishing and Consulting Services

Introduction

We offer a comprehensive publishing service for society journals that includes the following.

Management and development - We work with the society and editorial team to understand their objectives for the journal and to implement a plan to meet them. Our aim is to ensure maximum visibility of the highest quality research.

Production - This service includes copyediting and proofreading, combining speed and quality.

Online Publication - Using our special relationship with HighWire Press, we ensure state-of-the-art online access for individuals and institutions.

Marketing - We provide an international service that includes conference promotion, direct mail, Internet marketing, and advertising to maximize both revenues and visibility.

Consortia and rights sales - Online journals are increasingly purchased through consortia licences involving groups of libraries. We have a dedicated team to ensure maximum dissemination and revenue.

Advertising sales - We have an outstanding track record for increasing advertising sales for journals we take on.

Special Sales - Non-subscription revenues are increasingly important to journals, and it is our priority to maximize the revenue from reprints, supplements, translations, and bulk subscriptions.

Financial Management - A full financial management service for the journal is available.

Subscription management, customer service, and distribution - A responsive, international team ensures the best possible service for society members and subscribers.

Market Research - We use citation, usage, funding, and other market data to understand the competitive environment for each of our journals and to identify the opportunities and threats that they face.

Assistance and advice - Society assistance and advice on membership acquisition and retention strategies is available, with online presence and society enhancements to increase the society’s profile.
