Announcing our new consultancy service for digital publishers, Dial Consultants.

The consultancy ranges over digital publishing, online content creation and management. The business is separate from Syntagma Digital and is part of Dial Publishing, our print publishing house.

On offer : 20 years experience in magazine, general, and educational publishing — see here, here and here – and, in particular, one and a half years building Syntagma Digital from scratch into a 50 website content creator, divided into four network magazines. Add on a career as a full-time author and journalist and that’s the swagbag now dangling at the door of Syntagma Towers.

To contact Dial Consultants, email : John(at)dialpublishing(dot)com. It’s as simple as that.

Dial Publishing has two new imprints :

* edgewise : for new novels and cutting-edge nonfiction.
* Hermitage : for philosophy and spirit.

Dial Publishing itself will specialize in business and digital publishing. Its first title will be :

The Syntagma Story, followed by Superdemocracy : The Art of Corporate Governance, both by John M Evans.

Other titles to be announced in due course.

With Syntagma Media’s redesign currently underway by Thord Hedengen, it seems the right moment to declare our new business structure.

Syntagma Media will now have two operating divisions. The first, Syntagma Digital, will contain all our online properties — some 53 websites — including, three network magazines and the (currently) top secret plans codenamed, iSyntagma.

The second new division of Syntagma Media is Dial Publishing and will handle all print and other offline publishing and consulting work. This side of the business is set to swing into action in Q3 and Q4 of this year.

These changes will be progressively implemented and the present site developed accordingly.
