How I Use Notion to Run my Publishing Company
by Jeff Eddy | at Minnebar20 | 12:30 β 1:10 in Learn | View Schedule
I have been running Sofawolf Press INC, a four-person full-service publishing company, for over 25 years. A lot of software solutions for managing day to day operations have come and gone from our tech stack, and none of ever held a candle to what I have been able to do using Notion.
Notion is our CRM, our ERP, our Product Development and Event Planning System, our Royalty Reporting system, and a web-facing solution for our Sales and Marketing Efforts. All for <$1,500 a year.
In this session I will describe the challenges we faced trying to run a small but complex business "in the old days" and how Notion has been a cost-effective solution to most of them, allowing us to run lean and still be a fully functional business.
Jeff Eddy
I'm a corporate Customer and Product Operations ex-pat, loving the heck out of working for myself and building the sort of things I want to see in the world.
My primary passion is expanding my 25+ year old full-service niche publishing company, Sofawolf Press INC, from a part-time passion project into a full-time business focusing on helping mid-to-emerging genre storytellers maximize the footprint of their IP. We are part traditional publisher, part agent, part marketing team, and part operations consulting... allowing storytellers and visual creators to focus on their art rather than how to maximize the visibility of it.
My secondary passion is Notion and introducing it to creators as a solution to keeping their business operations organized and out of their way. I use Notion exclusively for my own business, have been using it personally for almost 6 years, and am a Notion Ambassador and community educator.
Feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn to learn more about me, my services, and my passion for Minnesota, creatives, and Notion.
