Contract Publishing

VHM Contract Publishing

Contract Publishing entails all the aspects of publishing that are usually driven by the publisher, but places the client in control. Contract Publishing is often employed by membership organisations, trade bodies and larger corporates as a way of maintaining a strong connection with stakeholders (members, regulators, media, the public and more.)

Historically Contract Publishing relied on print magazines and brochures, but now encompasses publishing on all platforms and in all media. Print publications are still a hugely powerful medium for many organizations, especially where a core audience already exists. Receiving a physical item in the mail is something of a rarity these days, and as such the attention paid is high. Digital publishing allows organizations a more accessible route to growing an audience and allows outreach to the general public.
