Country Press Printing in Boston, MA

Printing costs have often been one of the deciding factors on whether or not to publish a book. This is because the process of printing incurs costs from set-up to binding. However, because of digital printing, printing and publishing a book have become more economical. This conventional method has made print-to-order or print-on-demand possible and profitable.

Print on demand became convenient when digital printing was introduced. This way, options to print or reprint fewer copies of a book are now available. In return, publishers, retailers, and distributors can receive and process book printing more cost-effectively. Even authors can benefit because they do not have to spend a large amount of money to have their work published.

Printing on a digital platform has paved the way for a better means of designing, developing, and manufacturing printed and bound materials. This has changed the lives of many authors and publishers, readers and writers. Digital printing solutions continue to help get the printing done right, on time, even if the budget is tight.

With an improved front-end, imaging, and finishing system, self-publishers and large publishing firms are now benefiting from outstanding printing processes brought forth by digital printing.

Generate Book Reviews with High Quality Bound Galleys

Country Press Printing, Boston, MA

A Bound Galley is the pre-publication version or the advanced copy of your upcoming published book that is printed and bound. The cover of the bound galley can be useful to market the book to reviewers, bookstore distributors and buyers.

Once you have your book completed, you need to start promoting. The best way to do this is to generate as many reviews as possible. Even if you have sold your book to a publisher, you still need to promote it yourself too.

Your publisher will send advanced reading copies to major reviewers, but you can send bound galleys to smaller reviewers as well.

If you are a self published author, you know the importance of bound galleys or ARC books. Several months before the publication date of your book, publishers will send out bound copies of the finished manuscript. These are called galleys or advanced reading copies, also known as ARCs. These advanced copy books are sent to reviewers in order to generate excitement about the pending release of your book or novel.

Authors also need to review galleys to be sure that all the changes indicated in the copy-editing process have been implemented. Reviewing the bound galleys is the last time you can review the book for errors. (Keep in mind, with digital printing, the book can be edited later).

Once you sign off on that galley, the book is all but finished. All that needs to be done now is the physical printing, binding, and shipping. The Country Press uses state of the art equipment to provide our customers with Bound Galley products and services. Contact us.
