Published
Here, Why use Published Here?
The
goal with Published here is to make the author’s
experience a satisfying one. If we accomplish that then you, the author,
will gladly recommend our services to others.
This
goal, and your goal, are really one and the same. You wish to publish
and put your works in the hands of readers everywhere and we wish to
make that a reality. We recommend a lot of self-marketing in the form
of bookstore
signings and library readings where available. This will put in place
a local and regional base who will recommend your works outside your
personal reach zone. Although if you use our service we will arrange
a page on the publishers web site for your book, a listing at Amazon
and we strongly recommend you create a web site and/or a blog. Share
your
thoughts
with others,
resulting in those others sharing their thoughts with even more. Marketing
is like a snowball rolling down a hill, if the snow is there it gathers
momentum
and grows.
You have to create the snowball, your audience is the snow and your marketing
is the momentum so put those elements to work for you.
Make
sure that you properly edit your works. Nothing detracts from a brilliant
writing more than typos and mistakes in grammar
or continuity.
Professionals are available, we offer the basic copyediting service,
but if that is not for you at the very least have the most competent
relative or friend you know read and constructively criticize your manuscript.
This is critical prior to publishing. If that snowball we mentioned
is weak or has square edges when rounded ones are needed it is going
to be difficult to get it rolling down that hill. The last part of the
process is to find a reputable agent if your book sells well within your
target zone. Remember, if you’re in it for profit as well as satisfaction,
it is better to earn fifty cents each on a million books than two dollars
each on
a hundred thousand. Once you’re established negotiations for your
manuscript and large publication runs become a reality your work
will yield a much better return than this, your first endeavour. Every
journey begins
with
a single
step,
just
make
sure it is in the right direction, the direction you wish to go.
This
sounds like a lot of marketing work for the author but believe it or
not the same is true whether you use on-demand publishing
or traditional
publishing. Remember bookstores and libraries don’t know how a
book is published. All they see is it well written and is it on a subject
matter that fits with their venue. Our publishing process is quite smooth
and once we have you set up with the publisher supply is seamless and
able to fit any demand. During the process we will answer any questions
you have that are within our scope of reference. You will find your finished
book is a very high quality product of which you can be proud and is
capable of sitting on the shelves of any bookstore and library.
