Distribution Services
In the book distribution business there are many different types of business arrangements.
We offer distribution services, and can list your book (s) with the following companies:
- Amazon.com
- BN.com
- Baker & Taylor
- Ingram
As an author, it is expected that you sell your book to bookstores, distributors and wholesalers at a discounted rate (outlined below).
| Buyer Type | Discount to Buyer* | Freight/Handling |
| Individual | none | Individual Pays |
| Independent Bookstore | 40% | Bookstore Pays |
| Distributor/Wholesalers | 55% | Author Responsibility |
*These are common, industry standard discounts.
Distribution does require that you keep a small amount of books in our inventory warehouse so that when we receive orders from a bookstore, distributor or wholesaler, we can pack and ship the order out in a timely manner.
We currently offer two packages. With each package you will also get an account you can login to at any time and view your book in inventory. You can also view your book’s history in inventory: orders placed by wholesalers, distributors etc. You will also be able to place orders for your own books so you can login, and ship books to reviewers, or to yourself at a speaking conference.
| Package | Description | Price |

We hold books in inventory for you and fulfill orders placed by either you or distributors | $250.00 |
| Amazon Distribution Package |

In addition to these packages you can also add on a shopping cart feature so that customers can order your book on your website.
