ELOQUENCE METADATA SOLUTIONS FOR ONIX
BRIEF DESCRIPTION
Have you seen the ONIX standard recently? We have! Firebrand's Eloquence Metadata Solutions includes industry-leading support for ONIX files. We worry about the details, we sit on the standards committees and we develop the complex programs and feedback so that you don't have to. Eloquence transmits rich bibliographic records to more than 100 Trading Partners for thousands of publishers, distributors, and imprints. For clients using our Title Management Solution, achieving implementation of the ONIX standards is as easy as a click of the button.
BENEFITS OF Eloquence SUPPORT OF THE ONIX STANDARD
- ONIX is complex — development is not trivial. You focus on publishing. Leave the technology to us.
- ONIX is changing...all of the time. If you develop it yourself, be prepared to start over the day you finish.
- ONIX is standard...sort of. Each publisher and trading partner implements ONIX differently, especially for more complex title information. Eloquence has the accumulated experience of working with many trading partners for a decade to improve the process.
- Eloquence has contacts with real live people at trading partners. We send information for hundreds of thousands of titles via ONIX, and know who to talk to.
- Publishers increase the number of on-line accounts that receive bibliographic content electronically.
- Clients decrease the cost of doing business by reducing manual labor data entry.
- The ability to send multiple pieces of artwork in varying image formats to on-line trading partners.
- The Firebrand team represents you at ONIX industry meeting so that you don't have to.

"Even in the midst of a weakening economy, when we've had a down year in sales, our revenue from Amazon has increased by 37% over last year, which works out to more than $80,000. We believe that this is, in large part, a direct result of our old and new book information being sent to them in weekly Eloquence feeds."
