Benefits of Short Run Book Publishing

Joseph Coupal - Tuesday, October 02, 2012

For an organization, publishing company or author that needs to have some books printed, consider short run book printing. Short Run Printing can improve the efficiency of ordering books because it allows authors or organizations to order books in smaller quantities.

The ability to print in Short Runs is largely made possible by the use of Digital Printing equipment. Digital Printing does not have the upfront expenses which makes short run printing less expensive because there are only minimal set-up costs associated with each job.

There are many benefits to short run book printing:

Less money invested – with short run books, your order is smaller so you have less money invested. Because you have fewer books, you turn your inventory faster.

Faster turnaround - Shorter runs take less time to print so you get your books faster.  

No leftover books – with short run books you are ordering fewer books, so you have less chance of having books left over. You also have less chance of being stuck with obsolete or out-of-date books (in the case of text books for example) if the content changes more rapidly than anticipated.

Less Risk - You can update content or make changes to the content or design.

Use less space – When you order less books at a time, you use less storage space. This also reduces handling costs too.

Promote Your Book With Short Run Book Printing

Joseph Coupal - Wednesday, September 19, 2012

Got the next great American novel in your head? Write it and promote it with the help of short run book printing. This way you can print only what you need, when you need it.

There is a self-publishing revolution going on. Authors are removing the publishing middleman and making surprisingly good money while interacting with their readers online.

But, not everyone is successful. Writing and publishing the book are the easy parts. Writing something that’s good and getting it to the masses? That's where you need help.

Treat your new book like a small business.  You will need to spend at least as much time on promotion and marketing as on writing your books. This is where short run book printing comes in. Get your books to reviewers, friends, family members, anyone who will read it. Head to book signings and visit book fairs.

Pay for an editor. Make sure your book is well-edited. Readers get annoyed by typos and grammatical errors and will give you a bad review if there are too many.

Make sure the cover art  is great. A great book cover will get your book noticed. It's the first thing a reader sees before they even read the blurb. If you cover looks homemade, your book will tank.

Short Run Book Printers - When You Need Fewer Professionally Printed Books

Joseph Coupal - Tuesday, August 07, 2012

When you order a small amount of printed books from a professional printing company, you are placing a short run book order. Short run book printing is essential to self publishers so they can promote their book and sell their book.

Publishing companies generally only print 5,000 copies or more at a time in order to make a profit. Therefore, it is important to find a publishing company that specializes in short run books.
 
For self publishers, or for advance copy books, short run book printing is relied upon to bring books to market. Short run book printing allows for more inventory over print on demand at a price that a self publisher can afford.

Short Run Book Printing Helps Authors Promote Their Books

Joseph Coupal - Wednesday, August 01, 2012

Short run book printing is the perfect way for authors and publishing companies to promote their books. Short run books are perfect for self promotion: print from 1-1000 of your newly published books and use them as giveaways, for book signings, and send them to reviewers.

Through the Taleist survey of self-published authors, those authors who want to succeed, however they are published, must be willing to do at least some of their own promotion.

Indeed, the Taleist survey of self-published authors showed that book promotion does work:

“The authors who did best, however, did everything except pay for reviews: They gave away review copies, submitted their books to book review bloggers and the mainstream press, sought popular reviewers on Amazon and asked their readers through email lists etc.”

The way to sell you book is to get reviews; you get reviews when people read your book. This means promoting your book. Short run book printing allows you get it in front of friends and family, book bloggers and reviewers, and even random strangers on the internet.

Whether you do that via social media, or emails, or giveaways, you have to promote your new book. There’s just no way round it.
