Building a commercial strategy to future-proof your publishing business
Join us for a half-day workshop plus 1 hour 1-2-1 follow up with business development consultant Helen Coston.
The training will be held on 21 June, 9.30am-1.30pm BST, plus a 1 hour 1-2-1 follow up at a time convenient to you.
About the course
Creating a profitable publishing business has become more challenging than ever before. With increased print costs, less interest from marketeers in print advertising and fragmented reader behaviour, it has become increasingly complex to build reliable streams of advertising revenue.
If you are a publisher looking to attract advertisers, develop your commercial offering or improve your profitability then this is the course for you.
