Print-Only
Self publishing has grown in recent years into a popular and exciting alternative to standard publishing. With our Print-Only services we help bring that book to life. This is a print-only service so all we do is print the book. We don’t offer any fancy additional services such as editing, cover design, marketing tools with this service. If you need self-publishing services, we do provide a self-publishing service as well. We specialize in short-run book printing for self-published authors.
What Makes Us Different:
1)Our prices are better than our competition.
2) Being that we have both a Traditional and Self-Publishing division, you can rest assure that the quality of your book will be the very best.
3) We will not print your book if it looks like crap. There are more than enough printers out there who will print your book no matter what it looks like, but we don’t do that. Once you submit your book cover and your inside pages, we take a thorough look at it and if we notice something that will prevent you from doing well, such as a bad cover, an unedited book or bad typography we will inform you. We will help you out the best we can and we may even fix a thing or two free of charge. If you need services that we can’t provide, we will recommend someone to you. If you choose to want to go ahead and print a book that looks like crap although you’ve been warned, please note, we will recommend another printer for you.
4) We are not the biggest, but we are the best and we do that by ensuring everything that comes out of this company, is the best. As a self-published author, you deserve the truth and we feel it is our duty to provide you with the truth. Regardless of whether you are only printing with us or publishing with us, we will give you the truth and help you out along your journey.
