# Publisher Subpage Recommendations ## Goal These recommendations are meant to turn the publisher-side concepts into concrete website subpages without changing the existing HTML yet. ## Page 1: Critic CRM ### Positioning **A live workflow for critic fit, outreach timing, and relationship-aware review strategy.** ### Hero Eyebrow: `Publishing Intelligence` Headline: **Find the right critics for the right book, with reasons you can act on.** Subhead: Critic CRM helps publishers and publicists move beyond static reviewer lists. It brings together critic history, comparable books, relationship context, and recent signal patterns so teams can decide who to pitch, who not to pitch, and what to do next. Primary CTA: `Request a Demo` Secondary CTA: `See the Sample Workspace` ### Why It Matters Recommended section title: **Most publicity pipelines hide bad fit until the pitch is already out.** Recommended body: Critic outreach is often driven by memory, spreadsheets, inherited lists, and broad genre assumptions. Critic CRM turns that into a live decision system that helps teams see fit, mismatch, timing, and relationship context before they spend the pitch. ### What It Does Recommended section title: **A critic workflow built around fit, not just contacts.** Recommended content blocks: 1. `Build live critic records` - track review history, outlets, taste patterns, comparable titles, responsiveness, and current appetite 2. `Score fit for a specific manuscript` - surface strong-fit, borderline, and poor-fit critics with plain-language rationale 3. `Track timing and relationship context` - show when a critic is saturated, when interest is rising, and where prior interactions matter 4. `Create an outreach roadmap` - turn the analysis into a ranked list, do-not-pitch list, rationale, and next actions ### Sample Workspace Section Recommended section title: **A sample workspace for critic fit and campaign decisions** Recommended visual concept: - left rail: active campaigns, lists, and shortlist states - center panel: ranked critic table with fit status, overlap, recent appetite, and rationale - right panel: selected critic profile with comparable books, recent review behavior, and recommended next action Recommended caption: The system should feel like a publicity desk, not a media database. The point is to help teams make sharper relationship decisions, not simply expand a contact list. ### Outcomes Section Recommended section title: **What teams get from it** Recommended bullets: - less wasted outreach to poor-fit reviewers - stronger hit rate with critics who are actually aligned - shared reasoning across publicity teams - a live record of why someone was pitched, skipped, or escalated ### Closing CTA Recommended body: Show us a manuscript, a comp set, or a campaign question, and we will show you how Critic CRM can structure the outreach logic. ## Page 2: Translation Scout ### Positioning **A conviction and submission workflow for deciding which foreign titles deserve real effort.** ### Hero Eyebrow: `Publishing Intelligence` Headline: **Find the books most likely to travel well into English.** Subhead: Translation Scout helps scouts, editors, and rights teams move from scattered foreign-market signals to a focused shortlist of titles worth deeper attention. It connects review evidence, critic overlap, title state, editor fit, and barriers so teams can decide what to pursue and why. Primary CTA: `Request a Demo` Secondary CTA: `See the Sample Workspace` ### Why It Matters Recommended section title: **The hard part is not discovering that a book is good. It is deciding whether it deserves effort.** Recommended body: The source docs make this clear: the real publishing problem lives in the messy middle. Teams are trying to judge travel potential, sample quality, editor fit, rights state, and practical risk across emails, notes, scout reports, review links, and memory. Translation Scout turns that middle into a visible operating workflow. ### What It Does Recommended section title: **A working rights and scouting desk for cross-market conviction** Recommended content blocks: 1. `Track title state` - manage each book from `watch` to `sample`, `rights check`, `submission`, `pursuit`, or `pass` 2. `Build an evidence-backed conviction dossier` - connect foreign reviews, critic overlap, comparable titles, market signals, and confidence level 3. `Map editor and imprint fit` - move from "someone in the US might like this" to "these specific editors or imprints make sense" 4. `Capture barriers and pass reasons` - show where a title is blocked by sample quality, translation difficulty, cost, rights state, weak lane fit, or timing 5. `Turn conviction into next action` - request sample, escalate for read, confirm rights, target specific editors, or pass with a structured reason ### Sample Workspace Section Recommended section title: **A sample workspace for travel fit, title state, and editorial next steps** Recommended body: The wireframe should be presented as a disciplined editorial tool, not a marketplace dashboard. It should show how a team moves from ranked foreign titles to a recommendation with visible evidence. ### Recommendation for adapting the existing Translation Scout wireframe Use [assets/translation-scout-wireframe.svg](/Users/sonfamily/Documents/SONALI/PALLAS-ANALYTICS/Website/assets/translation-scout-wireframe.svg) as the basis for the page sample, but frame it more explicitly as a **conviction workspace**. Recommended webpage treatment: 1. Keep the left rail - relabel it around working lists and states: - `Watch` - `Sample` - `Rights Check` - `Submission` - `Pass / Revisit` 2. Keep the center results table - but prioritize columns that prove decision value: - `Travel fit` - `Confidence` - `Critic overlap` - `Rights state` - `Next action` 3. Sharpen the right panel - make it read like a title dossier summary: - one-line thesis - why it may travel - strongest overlap evidence - likely US lane or imprint fit - main blocker - recommended next step 4. Add a small note below the image - explain that the sample view shows how a team moves from signal to shortlist to action ### Recommended caption for the webpage This sample workspace shows how Translation Scout turns foreign-market coverage into a live title record with evidence, fit, barriers, and a clear next move. ### Outcomes Section Recommended section title: **What teams get from it** Recommended bullets: - earlier visibility into titles worth real attention - clearer reasons to pursue, wait, or pass - better handoffs between scouts, rights teams, and editors - a reusable record of what actually moved a title forward ### Closing CTA Recommended body: Show us a market, shortlist, or rights question, and we will show you how Translation Scout can structure the decision path. ## Relationship between the two publisher pages These pages should feel like the same product family. Recommended shared language: - live title or relationship record - fit and timing - evidence and confidence - barriers and weaknesses - next action Recommended difference: - `Critic CRM` centers relationship and outreach judgment - `Translation Scout` centers title conviction and submission judgment
