Our production and distribution partner, Ingram, has announced their global network now covers nearly 50% of the global population! That established retail connectivity within each region enables our author’s books to reach readers worldwide.
Print-on-demand (POD) offers many benefits not available in traditional large print run and warehousing models. Access to dozens of countries and our titles are always available through bookstores and online retailers. We can print any volume to supplement a variety of publishing models.
Our Publishing Model Offers Authors/Clients:
- More control.
- A quicker path to publication (and market).
- Publishing assistance clients/authors retain ALL rights to their work.
- Interior design and layout (creating the print-quality ‘bookblock’ for production).
- Cover design and layout (creating the print-quality paperback cover or dust-jacketed hardback production file).
- Production capability without the necessity for capital investment in large print runs or warehousing and logistic costs.
- Publication of books (under one of our nonfiction or fiction imprints) of comparable/equal quality to any traditional publisher.
- Direct sales fulfillment of volume wholesale orders to organizations.
- Sales and Royalty Quarterly Reporting (with royalties paid monthly).

A Brief Explanation of What We Do as a Hybrid Publisher
Traditional publishers often overlook or dismiss many books that merit attention… that deserve to be published. And that is understandable because of the economics of their business model.
Unlike most traditional publishers, we do not limit our interests to only those books written by famous, proven bestselling authors, celebrities, or hot-fad titles, hot-buzz debuts with a large, established audience and market. We have titles and authors that sell well commercially and others that fulfill our author and client’s personal, professional, or business objectives that sell in lesser retail volume.
We also have titles that sell very well to organizations (that would qualify them as ‘bestsellers’ on the bestseller lists). So, a book does not need to fall into a ‘guaranteed’ bestseller category before we consider it for publication. We have the capabilities of any traditional publisher to bring stories from the manuscript stage to a finished reality as a book (produced in all formats).
