Consulting
You may have been fine-tuning your publications department for a while, or perhaps recent changes have affected your operation. When it's time for a fresh perspective, get feedback that tells you not just what to improve but how to do it. Talk with us about our consulting services: EEI can offer you unbiased advice from teams with years of solid publications experience.
To find out if your magazine, journal, or newsletter is on the right track, try an Eye Exam critique, where we review
- Content and design (one or both, depending on your needs)
- The journalistic quality and readability of the writing
- Whether there are any grammar, style, or usage errors
- Specific examples of how type, illustration, color, and graphic elements contribute to (or detract from) your publishing mission
The editor of The Editorial Eye, our subscription newsletter, and EEI's art director will chart the strengths and weaknesses of your publication in a detailed Eye Exam report.
Or, for an overall look at a publishing team or organization, ask us about a Publications Department Audit. In these custom-tailored analyses, we visit your offices, interview your staff, and help you decide
- Whether you have enough people
- Whether those people have the right skills and training to produce high-quality work
- Whether your procedures are efficient
- Whether your staff's productivity matches industry standards
- Whether you plan and schedule work effectively
- Whether your hardware and software are right for the work you do
Our team of managers will assess your operation in a report that summarizes findings and recommendations, designed for you to use to continue to excel in your organization.
Once you invite us to join your team, EEI is committed to your continued success. We are always pleased to arrange telephone conferencing or meetings to follow up on our reports and gauge your progress.
