LEADING ORGANIZATIONS come to us when they believe a new book is in order. Above (from left to right) are a few of the titles we published for the following organizations: the Associated Press, the American Management Association, NBC News, the Smithsonian, the Wall St. Journal, and the Sporting News. Others are in the list below.
Why We Partner: For some topics the right organization can add authority to important topics. In exchange, they collect license fees and sometimes royalties too. They join forces with our firm and our co-publishers by not only licensing their name to the title as an "imprint" (i.e. a logo or a proprietary notice on the book cover), the organization also contributes or consults on a large portion of the content. For some books, key individuals at the organization might be named as the author or they consult with us to name the perfect individual to write the book, or simply be its spokesperson.
The list of organizations we bring in is small and selective and sometimes involves many titles over a period of years. When our firm and our co-publishers bring in a third-party organization, it must be one of the leaders in its particular field. Below are some of the organizations that joined forces with us:
- The American Management Association
- The Associated Press
- The BBC
- Careercast.com
- CareerJournal.com
- National Employment Business Weekly
- NBC News
- The Smithsonian
- The Sporting News
- The Wall St. Journal
- The World Almanac
OUR CO-PUBLISHERS provide distribution and marketing for all our books. Above, from left to right, are book covers of titles co-published with: HarperCollins, Doubleday (Div. of Random House), Henry Holt-Macmillan, Abrams Books, St. Martin’s Press, and Houghton Mifflin.
Nothing is more important: The success of every book is largely determined by getting the perfect match between the author or organization and the most appropriate publishing house that distributes and markets their book. Our company enjoys relationships with over 50 mainstream publishing houses, our "co-publishers," where we “place” our books on a title-by-title basis, rather than being confined by blanket restricting, contracts.
