The GCN team is made up of publishing professionals, so we understand the dynamics of your business before we walk in the door.
You don't have to teach us what the important issues are, and you can count on us to back up your experience and truly participate in the decision-making process in a way that no other Internet design or development firm can match.
We understand that your goal is not just building a web site. Your goal is to build a profitable web-based product that will generate revenue, cut costs and leverage your brand with an online audience.
So, before we talk about technology or design, we sit down with your sales, marketing, and editorial teams to determine what the business goals of the project are and how best to meet them.
You understand your market, your advertisers and your brand. We use our vast experience in both print and online publishing to evaluate your initial project plan and to help you identify new opportunities that you may not have explored. We steer you clear of Internet pot-holes--ideas that won't generate a return, or those which are simply fads with no real long-term chance of success.
We counsel you to invest the parts of your site that will provide your publication with the greatest return on investment, rather than focusing on the parts that are the most glamorous or the most profitable for us to build.
We also focus on which advertisers will fund your development efforts, and we work with you to develop a business plan for the site that will ensure its long-term financial success.
You see, at GCN, our focus goes beyond the nuts and bolts of putting together a site. Our focus is your business, our business, and helping you succeed using our experience to your advantage.
