BAB. Changes and improvements in 2017
Challenges, projects and objectives achieved
Hello! What's going on?
Now that we are just starting 2018, we would like to share with you what 2017 has been like at BAB.
We have worked on the image and digital reputation of BAB as a technology services company and that of Comitium, our own CMS specialized in digital newspapers. We have achieved new milestones with editorial works and projects in different fields and sectors and we have consolidated ourselves as an Internet services company specialized in digital media. All this makes us feel happy and proud of the work done this past 2017 and that is why we want to review and share with you some of the benchmarks.
What are our communication objectives?
You know that at BAB we are very fast-paced. We are aware that we had left a little aside, the image of our own brands and more importantly, how to communicate with you outside the strictly professional field and especially how to involve you in a different way of our news both in the field of services and product.
At the beginning of the year we incorporated a new profile in BAB to occupy the position of communication and digital marketing and thus enhance the entire corporate image and also ensure a fluidity in communication with you.
The first thing we did was to create the social profiles of wearebab, we generate our own content weekly and also share the content of others, with selected news that we believe may be of interest to your project.
And as they say, you can follow us on:
Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn
In mid-June we published the new version of wearebab.com after months of working on the most appropriate format: renewed content and design, usability and user experience, and we even made a video to show you how the internal work process is at BAB. It turned out pretty good and we are really proud of it.
And while we were at it, we also took the opportunity to launch a project that we have been looking forward to for a long time, and that is the fact of having our own wearebab blog. You know that we are always motivated to do new things, to improve ourselves and we are creating a new communication channel with you trying to generate quality content and if possible add some value to your digital media: web analytics, metrics and audience control, digital marketing and social networks, Software and Apps, web design and UX/UI, technology and Internet news...
By the way, since you are reading this, I would like to thank you and all of you who have contacted us via e-mail or telephone to encourage us to continue writing in the wearebab blog. Thank you very much!
In order to keep you informed of all the news we decided to create a monthly newsletter sent from the new Comitium newsletter module with the latest posts published in the wearebab blog, Comitium news, links of interest and much more, always thinking about adding value to your business on the Internet.
We have also designed an informative dosier so that all our clients and collaborators can know all the possibilities that BAB can offer as a technology services company.
And the BAB team still had time left over to make us some personalized coffee mugs that we designed and gave as gifts this past Christmas.
And what goals do we set for ourselves in the business environment?
Last 2017 at BAB we decided to consolidate ourselves as a technology services company specialized in the field of digital media.
Digital newspapers, news portals, local media and digital magazines are the sectors in which we have decided to consolidate our own business definition in the midst of digital transformation and especially in the publishing world, increasingly demanding and competitive with a growing need for creative and flexible solutions to manage with maximum security and speed of delivery, large volumes of content for large audiences always thinking "Mobile First".
A very important part of our business and collaborative environment is formed by a set of strategic partners and customers with digital newspapers, who use Comitium on a daily basis and give us feedback on their needs and usage experience. This has been a determining factor in our own definition.
Among others, we have developed projects as different as:
New culinary websites of the Sapiens-publications communication group
Contest the favorite dish of the Catalans
Different web projects for the medical, aesthetic and health communication group Mediforum.
Digital publication specialized in the tourism sector of the Malba Media group.
Information publications on the metropolitan area of Barcelona as an Metrópoli Abierta
On-line magazines for more specialized business sectors such as Repsol
And we have also developed some Apps
For iOS
For Android
And what goals did we set for Comitium, our own CMS for digital newspapers?
This year 2017 we have developed new functionalities and modules to consolidate Comitium as an "All in One" CMS. With global technological solutions for Digital Media with the aim of helping you to improve, automate and optimize the work processes of your team and to strengthen communication and loyalty with your users.
- Newsletter Module
- Push and web notifications module
- Management of external content and RSS feeds
- Refrigerator Module
And you who already know us must have thought, these guys from BAB who are dedicated to making websites that even have a CMS of their own? haven't they made a website for Comitium yet?
Yes, we have had this website for a long time and we are very proud of the final result, we hope you like comitium.io!
Thanks to the daily experiences with Comitium of some of the most important digital media managers, we have been able to evolve and improve our CMS for digital newspapers.
Some of the testimonies of these experiences:
"The new version of comitium represents a substantial change with respect to the previous one at all levels: usability, interface, structure, possibilities and agility in content management, both with respect to news, images and sections. The construction of the new Cuina.cat on comitium has been a key factor in the success of the project: it has been adapted to include two new types of content (recipes and menus), it allows a fast and effective management of content and has allowed us to create a fast and powerful search engine. A great step forward!"
Caterina Úbeda. Head of Digital Media Sàpiens Publicaciones
"After trying different web editors, you realize that most of them do not understand the needs of the journalistic community. comitium gives us efficiency in our work and the assurance that the innovation and development needs of a digital media are well covered. It is technology at the service of journalism."
Xavier Salvador. Director Crónica Global
"Awesome service with a very close attention and without bureaucracies. comitium is constantly improving with customer requests."
Joan Serra. CTO El Nacional
Since the beginning of 2017 we are also sending a newsletter with the version updates that we perform periodically in Comitium. In each newsletter we also inform about the new features implemented and add some tricks to improve the experience of the most recurrent users.
