Whether your library is just starting out, or well established, there are a bunch of things that we need from you to help us along the way. This handy guide should explain everything that we’ll need in order to get you up and running.
Library name
What is the name of your library? We’ll use this to create your new instance, and will be used and referenced throughout the system as well as giving you a Cadenzabox URL to browse your site prior to launch. For example: mylibraryname.cadenzabox.com
Brand assets
Depending on how much visual customisation is required for your instance will depend on how much of the below we’ll require.
- Logo
Either as an SVG or a PNG/JPG, the logo should be as high resolution as possible and be able to work in the context of your brand colours.
- Fonts
If you have specific fonts that are a part of your brand styles, please deliver those to us or let us know the names of them so we can license them for online use on your behalf.
- Colours
Let us know the colour pallet you are trying to follow. Dark theme, light theme, primary colours etc. All of this will help us create a well branded experience for your clients.
- Brand guidelines
For more established brands, you may have a more specific set of guidelines for us to follow when we “skin” your Cadenzabox instance. If this is the case please supply asap so we can understand the breadth of the design requirements.
- Any other visual assets
You may have more images that contribute to the design pallet. This could be a background texture or images used for “ambience” across the site. Please provide as hi-res as you have available for us to consider when skinning your instance.
System information
- The “From” email address
This is the email address that your clients will receive emails from when they get an email from the system, download confirmations, user verification etc. This could be anything @ your domain name as long as it is a properly setup email address. We will authorise this email address with our sending service “Postmark” which will send an authorisation request to you.
- Notification email address
While you can set these yourself in the admin we will set an initial address that will receive system emails for all the types of email that you can receive from your Cadenzabox instance.
Content
If we are creating additional marketing pages as a part of your build (Homepage, About page, Work page etc.) then we’ll need any copy, image assets and video links that will be used to make up the pages. We’ll ingest initial versions of the content on each page before showing you how to manage this yourself ongoing.
Catalog
The audio and metadata... the most important parts of your library. We have guides to take you through the different stages of bulk catalog delivery.
