OK, so you’ve just spent weeks (if not months) designing the most amazing content — but now it’s time to bring it to life online. You are sure to encounter frustration when your pixel-perfect files don’t end up matching the web version (in the slightest), and you don’t have extra hours to spend communicating back and forth with the development teams to ensure the web design version is up to par. The ideal scenario is when a design team may convert their Indesign file or PDF file to HTML without reworking what’s already been designed.

Key benefits for marketing teams

‍

Meanwhile, marketing teams have to coordinate with IT to launch several new campaigns to ensure deliverability, consistency, tracking, and accuracy. Marketers are stalled on the IT side when they have to wait for these new experiences to be coded from scratch and ensuring integrations are working properly. Fortunately, by utilizing the already-made PDF designed for the digital experience, marketers save time and reduce risk without duplicating efforts.

By converting a PDF to a digital experience, such as a landing page, lookbook or digital catalog, marketers don’t have to worry about coding, building it a second time in a complex XMS, or managing the content on a subdomain. By embedding the experience, marketers are empowered to create without restraint or limits imposed by rigid templates. Embeddable shoppable content solutions managed independently from the website empower marketers to launch more engaging experiences faster.

Analytics Benefits

Another benefit is analytics. Digital publishing platforms like Syndeca allow marketing staff to pull detailed analytics and reports without tagged links or creating event tags. It all happens automatically, so they can focus their efforts on actually promoting the products.

As a marketer, it’s important to be able to report metrics on the campaigns for the brand. What’s more––they need to prove the experience is generating value. Digital experiences need to have the ability to make each item featured in the catalog shoppable in order to justify having a visual commerce solution. Are you able to see which products are being viewed and shared with the most from your catalog experience? Are customers able to preview information about the products in the catalog without leaving the catalog experience?

What you should be able to see in your reports:
