Project management
Organising your own publication can be a nightmare. Consider all
the elements you have to put together, and the suppliers you have
to source and then manage:
- Find the copy (writers)
- Turn the copy into English (editor)
- Find the illustrations (photographers, cartoonists, graphic
artists)
- Design and lay out the pages (designers, DTP operators)
- Scan the pictures and take the publication to pre-press (repro
house)
- Make plates and print (printer)
- Distribute (mailing house).
Happily, there is an alternative:
- Ask Cambridge Publishers to do the whole lot for you.
No more struggling to organize half-a-dozen different companies
all at once in the hope that your publication will come out on
time. No more fighting your way through a jungle of jargon as suppliers
try to pull the wool over your eyes. No more listening to suppliers
blaming each other for some ghastly cock-up, with nobody willing
to accept responsibility.
We specialise in the management of publishing projects from end
to end, starting with the copy and finishing with the mailout.
But because we're flexible, we can offer you any combination of
services. For example, you might be happy with your current printing
arrangements, but feel that your editorial looks a bit sad. Or
perhaps you already have a good writing team in-house, but need
somebody to come in and handle the design.
Or it may be that your organisation feels the need to set up a
publication, but doesn't know where to begin. In which case, may
we respectfully suggest that a good place to start is our publishing
consultancy service.
