Testimonials

“When we began working with GCN Publishing, we knew we needed to take our Web presence to the next level, but were cautious about making such a large investment in an area that hadn’t historically generated a lot of revenue. GCN worked with us to build a business plan for the site, not just detailing the features and functionality, but also defining how our readers and advertisers would use the site, and what sort of sales packages we could put together to make the site profitable. I’m delighted to say that even before the site launched, we had generated enough online sales to nearly pay for the entire cost of its development. Choosing GCN, with their publishing experience, ensured that the site worked as we expected and produced a solid return to our company’s bottom line.”

Co-founder, James Informational Media, Inc.

“During our six-year business relationship—which has included GCN’s maintenance and on-going development of our site, as well as the two rebuildings—GCN has demonstrated admirable professionalism and skill, as well as unflagging commitment to putting our needs as their client first. We have been consistently impressed by the caliber of their team and their partnership-based approach to business. Based on GCN’s recommendations, we have considerably improved the content and functionality of the site and made it much easier for our customers to communicate and do business with us.”

“We consulted with the folks at GCN and they helped guide us in choosing features, determining the navigation routes, and figuring out revenue opportunities. We signed with them in mid-April and the multifeatured portal, MRketplace.com went live in 60 days, complete with blogs, market guide, news, industry experts and reader forums. The site looks great, functions well and has had great feedback from the industry. The most impressive part of the entire process for us was finding out how incredibly easy it is to make changes. We can change virtually every page on the site internally with no cost whatsoever. What a relief! And the GCN team was a pleasure to work with. We felt like ours was their only job through virtually the whole process.”
