Combining ownership and access business models
Staying relevant in today’s landscape and monetizing investments in news and content requires publishing companies to bring the agility of digital into the print market. To effectively serve both print and digital customers, they must offer both ownership and access consumption models. They need a common and coordinated platform that can harness operational efficiencies to deliver premium services and superior customer care.
