The dialogue below was overheard at a BNC digital catalogue cafe over the holidays. The patron was getting ready to order some tasty offerings from BNC CataList and was curious about the new feature available. We’ve added a new option for the PDF version of the digital catalogue, allowing retailers who want a print version of catalogues but don’t need all the detail available to them to print using the 5-per-page option.

Sit back and relax while we walk you through the update and show you what’s on the menu.

We have been busy with CataList lately. Yes, we’ve been signing up publishers and booksellers on the system and helping them get started. We’ve had several online demos. But what people don’t realize is that we’re also continuing to work on CataList itself. We’re adding new features to it all the time in response to user feedback. It’s the little things that make a difference with a product like this, and we wanted to show you three of the ones that have been most useful so far.

There is no question that moving to online catalogues will benefit everyone. The benefits for publishers and wholesalers may be more obvious, but booksellers will also have new capabilities in CataList that weren’t possible before. These are probably worth a closer look.

Printed Catalogues Makin’ My Life Difficult

PubFight, publishing’s favourite pastime, is not all fun and games. It takes a hard-working Marketing Manager to pull together the master list for the Fakefurt Book Fair. I know, that sounds easy—but it’s not! It’s a pain in the butt, and I blame the printed catalogue.
