  • From Pubwest 2013 Outsourcing Publisher Services a Panel Discussion with Jason Brockwell, National Book Network Phil Ollila
    From PubWest 2013 Outsourcing Publisher Services A panel discussion with Jason Brockwell, National Book Network Phil Ollila, Ingram Content Group Susan Reich, Publishers Group West For podcast release Monday, February 24, 2014 KENNEALLY: Welcome, everyone, to a panel called Outsourcing Publishers’ Services: Getting the Most Out of Distribution Through Partnerships. I’ll introduce myself and welcome you. My name is Chris Kenneally. I’m a business development director with the nonprofit Copyright Clearance Center. In the publishing world today, regime change is underway. It’s not happening in Tahrir Square, or even in Times Square. The old is giving way to the new in the virtual square, and publishers like yourselves and players like the ones on our panel today have declared themselves on the side of the new regime. Indeed, the concept of publishing a book and distributing it worldwide is fundamentally different than it was even a few years ago. With a combination of print-on-demand and e-services, there’s potential today to reach more customers globally in both formats, E and P. To be successful and to focus on development of content, many publishers have begun outsourcing services, obviously including distribution, but as well, book manufacturing, back office, collection, and customer service. With our panel today, we’re going to discuss ways you can maximize that particular approach to your business, the outsourcing business. We have three panelists who are ready to discuss all of that. We’ll do alphabetical order. In the center of the podium there, Jason Brockwell is director of sales of the National Book Network, and is also account manager for Amazon.
