Re: Offshore Editorial Providers


I'll admit that Hackensack is nothing like rural Pennsylvania, where I live, but I'm not sure it qualifies as "offshore".

I just received the following at my home account. With all the press coverage of jobs going "offshore" but I never dreamed editorial/creative jobs would be part of that as well.
 
I found it infuriating and had to share it with this list -- esp. upsetting to me is the "improve on quality" reference! That is just insulting. Surprising that I received it when the whole editorial purpose/mission of our publication is local/regional garden information for the Washington DC area. They have a lot of nerve to send it to me... just thought you all should be informed about what you may be up against in the near future.

Reduce Editorial Costs and Improve Content Quality

Many publishers have found that outsourcing editorial services to an offshore provider enables them to dramatically lower costs and focus in-house resources on their core business of developing content directly relevant to their audiences.

But some publishers are reluctant to contract out editorial functions to an offshore provider, primarily due to concerns about quality, data security and managing value. They may be missing a key opportunity to grab a competitive edge.

We invite you to attend our webinar series to learn more about how your organization can control costs and improve quality through editorial services outsourcing.
