This is one of the best parts of Plytix. There are two main ways to share content with your audience without giving them access to your platform: Build a Catalog - These are interactive product content portals where people can download the data and assets they need. The cool thing about these is that you use Plytix as your catalog backoffice. You can choose the content you want to share, giving you full control. Then you share a public link through or embed it on your website with an iFrame. Want to see how that can look? Check out one of our favorite client's press page: Eva Solo - https://bit.ly/2S9Xxn8 Create a Channel Feed - Feeds are where you can create CSV, XML, or XLSX formatted content that you can then send to your different channels. Need to feed your WooCommerce store? Set up a feed that will auto-update with your newest product content instead of manually updating spreadsheets or polluting your webstore with unessential information. Want to see how it works? We will walk you through it.
