Services I provide include: Training courses and advice on various aspects of the publishing process, including author engagement, author segmentation and targeting, author communications best practice, and CRM best practice on various systems including Microsoft Dynamics. Advice on maintaining databases and data integrity to Data Protection standards. E-marketing advice for the academic market. Assessing and improving customer satisfaction. Product design and management. Script writing for system testing (web platform, internal CRM systems, etc.). ‘How to get published’ workshops and seminars at conferences and universities ensuring new and established academics alike maximize their chances of acceptance pre-publication and impact post-publication. I have a thorough understanding of academic publishing (from point of view of publishers, academics, universities, funding bodies, accreditation organizations, etc.) and a sound technical understanding of academic publishing processes and standards. I am thus able to work in varied environments and communicate with, and successfully influence, an incredibly diverse number of people. Show less
