Children no longer obey their parents and everyone is writing a book.’Cicero 106 BC – 43 BC Roman orator and statesmanSelf-publishing can be more rewarding than being published – creatively, financially, and in other respects – if you go about it the right way.

This book was made available worldwide for a one-off payment of just 45.00.As a self-publisher, what are your options for new books?

And, crucially, how will you get your books distributed cost-effectively to buyers around the world?This book will take you through the options and explain their relative advantages and disadvantages. It provides guidance on selecting book topics with strong sales potential; writing distinctive content-rich non-fiction; writing in a number of different genres; choosing between hardback and paperback and other formats; choosing the optimal printing method; book content formatting and typesetting; book specifications; colour plate section options; distribution; print-on-demand; order fulfilment; dealing with Amazon, Lightning Source, Nielsen and Bowker; dealing with printers, copy-editors, typesetters, cover designers, and photographers; pricing and marketing your books.

Print-On-Demand Book Publishing: A New Approach to Printing and Marketing Books for Publishers and Self-Publishing Authors $20.48 The basic business model of the book publishing industry remained largely unchanged between the Great Depression and the turn of the Millennium. Print a lot of books, try to get them reviewed so that stores would stock them on consignment, advertise, then hope that they don’t come back as returns. Small imprints and self-publishers were reduced to begging distributors to accept their titles at discounts of 60% or more, and were expected to accept returns in any condition and quantity. Print-on-demand book publishing, combined with short-discount distribution and Internet marketing, is turning the publishing business on its head. For the first time, authors are finding that they can launch their own publishing businesses and earn more from their writing than they would with a major trade publisher. Small imprints can invest their scarce resources in acquiring, designing and promoting new titles, rather than gambling on tons of books that cost money to keep in inventory. This book details the new method with which authors and publishers alike can use POD to cut costs and increase profits, while reaching new readers through the magic of Internet marketing. |
