Things That Keep Publishers Awake
For Readers… bring broader content, additional properties, or advanced functionality & services
Manual Processes… synchronizing content across multiple properties is difficult
Editorial Teams… should work together to share information and assets, including photos, articles, audio & videos
Multiple Independent Workflows… have contributed to complexity, redundancies, legacy applications and other inefficiencies

Adoption Challenges
Most organizations haven't yet embraced multi-platform publishing…….1. Content is locked in legacy systems, 2. Conversion costs are still very high. 3. Publishing the bits of content that are appropriate for each
platform are equally important.
Best practices publishers can adopt include..4. Invest in content enrichment and authoring methodologies5. Stay away from acquiring resources for new platforms /
technologies.6. Leverage SaaS and PaaS based platforms offered by specialists
in content management
