Publish360 resources
This resource centre brings together practical decision material for publisher teams working on reader apps, DRM, direct commerce, audience engagement, accessibility and operational readiness. Each guide is designed to explain a real decision, not create another layer of platform jargon.
01 / What matters
01
Begin with a white-label reader-app brief if ownership is the question; DRM if rights and access are the constraint; direct commerce if the proposition is being modelled; or reader analytics if the team needs to define a useful engagement loop.
02
The programme prioritises clear definitions, scope boundaries, decision criteria and dated practical guidance. Where a topic depends on law, policy or a third-party platform, the guidance should point readers to the relevant primary source.
03
The strongest output is not merely a downloaded checklist. It is a better internal brief: a decision owner, a defined scope, open questions, evidence needed and a realistic next action.
02 / The ledger
The criteria to put on the table before an implementation decision.
| Reader-app strategy | Ownership, reader experience, catalogue access, commerce, app stores and realistic operating responsibilities. |
|---|---|
| DRM and standards | Readium LCP, entitlement, interoperability, reader friction and protection-model decisions. |
| Direct publishing | Commerce, subscriptions, channel policy, reader data and publisher-controlled service design. |
| Trust and operations | Accessibility, privacy, security, metadata, integration, launch and continuity questions. |
03 / Direct answers
Clear starting points for the questions that repeatedly arise in a publisher decision process.
They are written for publisher leaders and the people responsible for commercial, editorial, technology, operations, marketing, rights and data decisions.
They are decision resources. Product pages explain Publish360’s approach, while the resource programme is intended to help teams frame the wider publishing and operating questions.
Start with the decision that is currently blocking progress: reader-app ownership, DRM, direct commerce, reader analytics or due diligence.
Own your reader relationships, keep 85-100% of your margins, and stop paying to re-acquire your own fans.
