From title data to campaign page, without a new project

Book publishers maintain title data for the retail trade and at the same time need a website that sells books. Laioutr sits as the frontend over your PIM, your ERP and your shop system and turns them into title pages, author pages and campaign packages. Your marketing team builds them in the visual editor.

The challenges in Book publishers & direct sales

The title data is clean, the seasonal catalog is out, the retail trade is served. The publisher's own website still lags behind, because there every new release is handwork.

Four things come up again and again with book publishers.

  • The seasonal catalog is a PDF, the website is not

    Next season's list is fully typeset already, and the web version gets built a second time. Duplicate work for the same information.

  • Title data is enough for retail, not for marketing

    ISBN, price and category sit in the system. Sample chapter, author video, press quotes and reading dates live elsewhere and have to land on the same page.

  • Direct sales and retail share one page

    The title page carries your own shop and the retailer links side by side. Both have to be clear without the publisher pushing itself between the channels.

  • Every release wants its own campaign page

    Lead title, series launch, prize, reading tour: if every page has to come from engineering, the IT calendar decides when the campaign starts.

Title and author pages built from your title data

Title data comes from the PIM or the ERP, the marketing material from the content system. The frontend assembles both into a title page that sells.

ISBN, format, price and publication date come from the leading system. Blurb, sample chapter and press quotes are added by marketing in the editor.

Author pages bundle titles, dates and interviews. A series gets a package instead of a list.

The seasonal list becomes its own package with filters by category and publication month, from the same data as the printed catalog.

Direct sales

Your own shop and the retail trade on the same page

Direct sales run on your shop system and the retailer links sit next to them. Both belong in the same layout, without one crowding out the other.

Cart, checkout and account run on your shop system but look like your publishing site.

Retailer links, availability and local bookshops are blocks on the title page. The reader decides where to buy.

A series subscription, a book club or a membership runs as a flow on your shop system and lives in the same kit as everything else.

Built with
Campaigns

Campaign pages, sample chapters and newsletters from one kit

A lead title needs its own stage, and it needs it on publication day. The blocks are ready and delivery comes from the edge.

Campaign pages come together from blocks that already exist and go live when the advertising runs, not three weeks later.

Sample chapter, audio sample and look inside sit right on the title page instead of behind a download.

Signup, confirmation and topic newsletters for genres or series belong to the same kit as the title page.

Connects with your existing systems

  • Akeneo

  • Laioutr Mailer

Usually the title data sits in a PIM or the ERP, the marketing material in a content system and direct sales in a shop. If your shop runs on Shopware, Shopify or OXID, you connect it through an app.

Search, consent management, analytics and newsletter delivery come along as apps. What is available is listed in the App Store.

Hours, using blocks that already exist. Across projects so far, time to launch for landing pages is around 65% shorter than the classic ticket route.

Dates come from your event or ticketing system and sit as blocks on author and title pages. Selling still happens where it happens today.

Not for day to day work. Marketing builds the pages in the visual editor. You need engineering when a new block or a new connection is added.
