Getting Started

Getting started is a snap

Using Dropbox with your Issuu-powered campaigns is easy. Simply connect your Issuu account to your Dropbox account. A wizard walks you through the integration, and your creative files are instantly ready for publishing, sharing, and promoting on Issuu. It all takes just a few clicks. (We’ll walk you through even more details in the pages to follow.)

By linking a shared Dropbox folder to Issuu, designers can easily collaborate and share files with marketing and publishing managers and be confident they have always-on access to the latest files or existing files you want to refresh.

Let’s walk you through exactly how your content publishing workflow could go with an Issuu subscription.

Step 1. Create marketing magic

Start by importing your Dropbox file into Issuu to create a beautiful flipbook. Notice how Issuu keeps your original design aesthetic while enhancing your asset with sleek page-flips that immerse your readers.

Once uploaded, your file will be converted into the Issuu format. Easily remix your file into multiple assets — like marketing magic! Now you’ll have a shareable link for your flipbook to distribute, plus enhance your email marketing, website content and more.

Step 2. Take content from static to dramatic

On Issuu it’s easy to make your content interactive by adding embedded videos and live links for shopping and increased engagement back to your website, eStore, blog, or even with your advertisers.

Go from creation to consumption in minutes

Issuu integrates with all of your favorite marketing and publishing platforms — including Dropbox, Canva, Mailchimp, and Shopify — creating a seamless bridge between design tools, digital asset management archives, and delivery

SEO on Issuu

Maximize your reach and increase your visibility with Issuu. Issuu “automagically” optimizes content for search engines and mobile, including for Google AMP — no coding required, just upload your content. You can add links from your content to your top strategic web pages for a huge boost from Issuu’s top 1000 Alexa ranking and high reputation score.

Full-screen Embed

With Issuu, you can easily add your brochure, magazine, catalog, or any other piece of content directly on your website or blog - no engineering skills needed.

Step 3. Remix and repurpose your content, instantly

Need more content? Extend your capabilities by remixing your Issuu flipbook (or other Dropbox or Issuu assets) to create additional derivative assets including mobile articles, motion graphics such as social stories and GIFs, email graphics and more. Issuu does all the formatting, so you don’t need to worry about pixel sizes, and shapes for each platform.

Step 4. Share with your friends, fans, and followers

An easier way to share content, Issuu streamlines the distribution step. Launch your content to the world right in Issuu — share right to Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter. Or download the remixed assets and you’re ready to roll.

Step 5. Know when you’ve got a killer campaign going

Issuu Statistics delivers insights to help you understand who is consuming and interacting with your content - and how it’s performing. Make data-driven decisions to drive reader engagement, subscriptions, and marketing campaigns. So you know when you’ve got a killer campaign, and it’s time to crush it even more with more content!
