Transforming a Legacy Publication into a Lead-Generating Digital Experience
The International Ground Source Heat Pump Association (IGSHPA) partnered with BNP Engage to modernize its long-standing industry publication, GeoOutlook. Traditionally distributed in print, the magazine required a digital transformation to remain relevant, attract new advertisers, and strengthen member engagement. BNP Engage reimagined GeoOutlook as an interactive, web-based publication distributed through BNP Media’s HVAC brands, ACHR NEWS and Engineered Systems. The new digital experience combined immersive editorial content with lead-generating advertising placements, creating measurable value for both IGSHPA and its sponsors. By transforming a static print magazine into a dynamic, data-driven platform, BNP Engage helped IGSHPA reestablish GeoOutlook as a modern hub for thought leadership, industry connection, and sustained engagement.
The Challenges
After years of producing GeoOutlook in print, IGSHPA sought to return to regular publishing, but with a fresh, future-ready approach. IGSHPA turned to BNP Engage and ACHR NEWS for help creating a high-impact, web-based experience that aligned with modern content consumption habits and industry expectations. The organization needed a solution that would:
- Reach a broader, digitally engaged audience
- Attract and provide value to advertisers
- Support future publication cycles with a scalable model
The Solutions
BNP Engage collaborated with IGSHPA to design, build, and launch a fully digital version of GeoOutlook, transforming the traditional print magazine into a streamlined, web-native experience. To maximize visibility, the January 2025 edition was distributed to targeted subscribers of ACHR NEWS and Engineered Systems, generating qualified leads and deep engagement across editorial and sponsored content. The digital edition featured:
- A mobile-responsive layout with intuitive navigation
- Engaging editorial features paired with visual advertising placements
- Built-in lead generation through eblast campaigns to targeted BNP Media audiences
