Having a single platform makes for a more centralized system that serves as a single source of truth. It not only frees up our teams to do the work with the most value, it gives managers a 360 degree view of a book’s performance across a wide range of areas which informs decisions across multiple departments. We love it and only wish we had made the move sooner.
BECKY HEMPERLY, DIRECTOR OF CONTRACTS, RIGHTS & ROYALTIES, CANDLEWICK PRESS
The ability to deliver royalty statements online will help us in our continued efforts to reduce our carbon footprint, while also providing authors with easy, immediate access to statements for current and previous periods. The ease of use saves us time and effort while we, like the rest of the industry, work remotely.
MEGAN DIPASQUALE, DIRECTOR OF FINANCE & OPERATIONS, QUIRK BOOKS
Prior to Biblio3, many of our processes were managed in spreadsheets. Now our publishing process is online and centralised, providing coordinated access to documents and royalty and rights information. The self-service capability has been amazing, with approximately 60-70% reduction in some areas in time spent with people asking for information on contracts, rights and other administrative data.
