CASE STUDY: BinaryThing was founded in 1997 and has operations in Australia and USA. The company runs a network of related sites dedicated to electronic publishing - the ePublishing Network. Online it combines news, articles and discussion forums with its PDF Store to bring a complete online solution for professional users.

Offline the team evangelizes the future of ePublishing through its promotion and sponsorship of events and seminars like Seybold Seminars, PDF Conference 2001, XML Asia/Pacific and Open Publish 2001. At last count the network had about 60,000 newsletter subscribers, almost 10,000 discussion forum members and received 13,000+ software downloads and 1.3 million+ page impressions a month. Among other Web sites for PDF professionals, BinaryThing runs PDF Store.

In developing the storefront, BinaryThing evaluated a wide collection of systems including the possibility of developing the application themselves. However, after finding AceFlex® B2C/B2B and contacting AceFlex regarding certain customizations that were required for their specific application (electronic software download) BinaryThing chose to have AceFlex complete the updates. "We are very pleased with the resulting system and would do things in exactly the same way again given the opportunity," said Karl De Abrew, CEO of BinaryThing.

PDF Store AceFlex® B2C/B2B combined suppliers to collaborate more closely and sell electronic documents, software products online.

"AceFlex® B2C/B2B is a well-rounded software application for selling via the Web for both physical fulfillment and electronic delivery. It has a 3-tier architecture which is designed to be extensible and customizable in varying levels (depending on your expertise). We are very pleased with the resulting system and would do things in exactly the same way again given the opportunity"

PDF Store opened with more than 250 products and 45 companies, and lets visitors instantly purchase and download any of the tools listed. The store has grown from the immense popularity of the Planet PDF Store - which receives more than 13,000 downloads each month and almost 250,000 page impressions-and at launch opens with a host of new tools in a host of new categories. Shopping at the new store, visitors can leverage AceFlex® B2C/B2B robust features and utilize the search and categorization, read/add reviews on products, try demonstration versions before purchasing products and manage their account history, downloads and subscriptions.

"Print and Web publishers are always searching for new software tools-to help speed up their work or to allow them to do creative things not possible before - but there has never been a place online that has brought all this together," said Andrew Robinson, VP of Sales, PDF Store. "Whether you're publishing for the Web, preparing an eBook, or refining your prepress workflow, we aim to provide a one-stop-shop that caters for all of your electronic publishing needs."

By selling through the store, vendors can enjoy 75 percent of each sale though the site, receive monthly payments for all product sales and use exposure to BinaryThing's established, professional online user base to find customers. BinaryThing plans to integrate its PDF Store with AceFlex® PRJ package to leverage Web-based project management for custom IT projects.
