Business books

The book publishing industry has changed dramatically.  These changes include new types of products, evolving distribution models and the need for both authors and publishers to market direct to the consumer to drive awareness and sales.  New business models, including self-publishing and hybrid publishing,  offer significant opportunities and difficult challenges. To succeed in this environment, authors and publishers need to work together collaboratively and be laser focused on the real business of publishing… writing and publishing compelling new titles and then effectively promoting and selling those books to readers across the globe.
