Really Strategies Key Partner in Successful Launch of Edweek.org Subscription and Fulfillment Integration Project

Diverse system components come together to support subscription-based web site

LANSDALE, Pa.–March 30, 2006–Really Strategies helped Bethesda-based publisher Editorial Projects in Education (EPE) through migration to a subscription-based web site. Offering full content online at no cost to registered users was resulting in a decline of EPE's paid subscriptions. By moving to a subscription model for access to premium online content, EPE is recapturing subscription revenue lost from print subscriptions, building a new base of online-only subscriptions, all while still supporting a strong base for web advertising revenue.

To make the project successful, EPE needed to integrate their internally hosted web site, their print fulfillment services, and eMeta eRights Web Suite, which controls access to the site. Really Strategies architected the data flow process and system integration necessary to merge these systems to execute EPE's plan. "We translated EPE's business requirements to a technology solution," stated Ed Stevenson, director of content strategies at Really Strategies. "System integration among multiple vendors was an important aspect of ensuring that users experienced a smooth process and that the financial and customer data was properly recorded and stored for EPE."

"Really Strategies was a critical partner in the successful launch of our paid content site," stated Michele Givens, general manager at EPE. "They were attentive to both high-level strategy and user experience as well to all the details of implementation. I admire their ability to think strategically and to be the kind of consultants who 'roll-up-their-sleeves' to help get the job done."
