SUCCESS STORY

Digital Transformation and Continuous Improvement for a Leading American Business Magazine

Our client is one of the largest American business magazines, founded in 1929 in New York. The partnership started five years ago with the transformation of their print magazine into a dynamic digital platform.

Initially starting with a team of four, our team has grown to 29 members. Today, we work closely with their digital team to deliver timely and accurate information across a range of topics, including education, health, wellness, cryptocurrency, and conferences. As a key part of their core team, we provide essential support across all development tracks and maintain a strong collaboration with the client’s editorial team.

Solutions Provided

We rebuilt both the front-end and back-end of the website using a full CMS architecture, enabling smooth updates and easy content management.

Partnering closely with the client, we successfully launched three new content verticals, expanding the magazine’s reach and catering to a wider, more diverse audience.

Our team worked closely with the PM’s editorial team to develop and implement new features that aligned with their vision, ensuring that the platform remained both user-friendly and technologically advanced.

To further enhance performance, we integrated a Customer Data Platform (CDP), unlocking valuable insights to continually refine features and content strategy.
