Describing the NewsCactus Set-Up Process
For some, the creation of an online newsroom can be cumbersome, include dozens of hours in meetings with other team members and take months to complete.
For others—like those who sign-up for the NewsCactus online newsroom service—the process is simple and can be completed in a matter of hours or days, not weeks or months.
When companies subscribe to NewsCactus, they handle three aspects of installation:
- Create the sub-domain, news.companyURL.com;
- Add a home page Newsroom link; and
- Populate the site using the NewsCactus administrative interface (click here for specific implementation guidelines)
We take care of three tasks on our end:
- Set-up the NewsCactus database;
- Customize the newsroom to look like the rest of the site; and
- Provide over-the-telephone training, walking the new user through the online interface to populate the site.
This process can be done in a matter of hours, depending on how Web savvy the user is. Normally the NewsCactus newsroom is up and running within a couple of business days. It’s just that simple.
