It takes a very creative village to take a stunning issuu publication from an idea to a finished product. Editors, designers, artists and ad sales all commit to getting each publication as good as it can be. Add in Skype, Slack, Google Docs and whatever tools issuu publishers use to transfer files and connect people across town or around the world, and the work can get messy — making hitting Publish harder than it has to be.

Introducing Collaborate

We at issuu want to make creating a publication as painless as possible. So we are introducing a new tool your whole team will love: Collaborate. Collaborate streamlines your publishing process, bringing your workflow and your contributors all into one place.

From flatplanning, assigning articles and placing ads to managing reviews and producing a final PDF, your creative village will be able to do it all right in Collaborate. “We’ve come a long way with our flatplanning since our whiteboard,” says issuu publisher and Collaborate user Ben Davies, director of Factory. “Collaborate has made our production process much more organized and streamlined.” That means no more chasing down materials, switching systems or playing version roulette.
