Nanacast and Content Scheduling
Written by ady on August 13, 2009 – 7:48 am -The idea of “dripping” content, that is delivering a new product or information over a specific time period, has been around for years. When you think about it, all of those “Wine Of The Month” or “Fruit Basket Of The Month” programs are essentially club memberships with dripped content (in this case the wine or fruit) delivered over a specific time period (every month for as long as membership lasts). These systems are a proven way to generate profits (if they weren’t, they would have gone out of business long ago), and the recent creation of online business automation systems like Nanacast are now allowing e-commerce entrepreneurs to expand their reach into new markets.
The unique nature of the Internet as a communications medium allows you to create all sorts of scheduled content. You can write out articles and how-to guides, create podcasts, video features, RSS feeds, or any combination of the above.Nanacast presents an integration and all-in-one shopping cart that enables you to schedule these content types. Also, by overseeing subscription memberships, Nanacast helps you to set up drip content on a secured web page.You make the updates to your site, then Nanacast ensures that only paying memebers can access it.
The “Something Of The Month” club business model is still alive and well because people appreciate having physical products. While you could join a Book of the Month club that distributes text through ebooks, there will always be people who enjoy the feel of bound paper in their hands. By integrating their system with physical content producers like Vervate, Kunaki, and Disk, Nanacast is able to set up physical product drip content. Do you want to send your customers a new instructional DVD every month? The recurring payments are automated by Nanacast, and integrated with one of the product assemblers to make sure the DVD is shipped per your instructions. You can also make CD-ROMs (for software or digital file distribution), printed and bound books, printed newsletters, or any combination that you or your customers desire.
Paid methods of scheduling content are here to stay.The model is tried and tested, and because it has been refined over time, it continues to make good business sense. By using a business automation and integration solution like Nanacast, you are able to utilize this model in both the digital product and physical product realms.
