The adoption of digital publishing platforms over the last ten to 20 years has enabled publishers to expand their services due to increased capabilities, such as report bundling and through offering subscription packages. Publishers of B2B research are now at yet another stage of the digital transformation: we call it short-formism – the publication of shorter reports more frequently.
This whitepaper explores how publishers of high-value market analysis are increasingly embracing this change and what this means for research, editorial and production workflow. We also introduce a simple framework for managing a continuous feedback loop within workflow to ensure the reader is served with compelling and useful content.
