Publishing
BLI Messaging has successfully serviced the publishing industry for 15 years, starting with the New York Times fax product distributed to hotels around the world. Today, we offer solutions that include all channels of messaging. Knowing your business helps us to develop better products for you. We also find that new features incorporated into our platform for one publisher, can benefit all the others.
We simply have the best feature set of any messaging company with all channels (Email, Voice, Fax, SMS) on the same platform. Your customer can get the right message, at the right time and by the channel they prefer.
Newspaper Publishing
In these tough times for the newspaper industry, use messaging as a new profit center. We have set these options up so you don’t have to do any work. We do it all. There are several ways we approach partnering with you:
- White Label Messaging: We re-skin our web site with your look and feel. Then we wrap the site with your navigation. Through print promotion and web links, visitors and readers can buy messaging. We staff all the customer service 24/7 and can help companies launch jobs quickly and easily. Messaging is the best way to maintain and grow relationships with customers. Help your readers do a better job of it, and create a new profit center.
- Messaging packages for Classified Advertisers: Real Estate Brokers, Auto Dealers, Job Notifications and Event Planners all need messaging. Bundle it with their ad buy for print and the web.
- Business Listings: Offer messaging as part of the package for business listings or web hosting
- School Messaging: Let us get sponsors with you for school messaging in your area. We have built out a robust application not just for emergency notification, but game cancelations, meeting reminders, etc. Parents have messages delivered as they prefer: Voice, Email or SMS.
- Messaging for All Newspaper Advertisers: Every one of your advertisers uses messaging or they should. With our turnkey SaaS service, it’s easy for you to market to them via print, direct mail or the web. We will take care of the entire creative package, selling and implementation.
- Advertiser supported content delivery. We’ll send out content to your member lists via email or SMS. Opt-in for advertiser offers can also be included or sent separately.
Our approach is to partner with newspapers and their various software vendors to create new revenue opportunities.
Magazine Publishing
Our company works with over 100 magazine publishers. Most are struggling with moving from print publishing to the dynamics of online. We have developed many solutions for the industry and are always adding more features. For circulation verification via fax, we have a solution that allows emailing a form with bar coding. The reader prints it out and when faxed back to our servers, it is read, filed, systems updated, all automatically.
We are your answer to cost effective, new technology for staying in touch with your readers.
