Winding Up the Year

Abstract

Customer-favourite reports are now published, with more to come. New options for purchasing one-off reports are now available. And FreePint invites your feedback while we tackle some newsletter enhancements before 2013 begins.

Item

FreePint Subscribers now have access to some of our most popular reports of the year -- our annual review of Factiva.com, and our annual comparison of news products reviewed in the past 12 months. Also coming before the end of the year: our fifth annual survey on news needs and preferences (as soon as the Director of Research can complete the analysis...)

I've been preoccupied with the publication of these important reports, so I missed taking a good look at some of our recent articles. Don't make the same mistake I did. There's some good stuff to investigate on Islamic finance, the importance of digital signatures on your communications, and the legal wrangling of HP and Autonomy, to name only a few.

This year has involved a lot of product development, and the resulting FreePint Subscription is a consolidated, simplified offering. If your organisation has a FreePint Subscription, you have access to all our premium articles and reports. 

As we've made these changes, we're now able to take advantage of new partnership opportunities. I'm very pleased to announce that our reports -- product reviews, original research and topic reports -- are now available for individual purchase through our partner, Research & Markets. Reports will appear on Research & Markets around 30 days after their original publication on FreePint.

We're also working on other distribution and sales partnerships, so watch for more announcements in early 2013.

Winding Up the Year

I'm already getting more "out of office" responses to email and "gone until January" messages on voice mail. However you celebrate the end of one year and beginning of the next, I hope it involves some relaxation, and then coming back in January ready for another exciting year.

FreePint will be taking a brief break from publishing our newsletters until January. We're using this period to make some adjustments in response to reader feedback to improve the newsletters. 

Do you have any comments you'd like us to consider during this design and development work? Please contact us and let us know.
