Five Star Express Press Copper Plan
The Five Star Express Press Copper Plan is ideal for those who want to "publish for pennies," self-starters who have the ability to handle most or all aspects of the book design and/or speakers who want to increase profits by offering books that complement their presentations.
This plan is recommended for paperback perfect-bound books with a full color cover and black ink throughout the interior or full color children's books up to 40 pages.
Five Star Express Press is a division of Five Star Publications, Inc. (For full book production and marketing services please visit www.FiveStarPublications.com) With the Copper Plan, the author hires and works directly with contractors and is responsible for all contractors' fees and delivers a print-ready file to Five Star Express Press. However, Five Star Express Press will make available to the author a list of quality, reasonably priced, professional contractors that can handle every aspect of producing and marketing books, should the author not have his or her own connections. Five Star Publications can also help with marketing. Call us for a custom quote.

Read Linda F. Radke's
Ten Commandments of Book Publishing!
The Quill Says:
The Economical Guide to Self-Publishing breaks down the rather confusing and mutli-step task of publishing a book into simple to understand sections beginning with editing a manuscript all the way through publication and, just as important but so often overlooked by new authors, marketing. What makes this book stand out from so many of the other books offered to aspiring authors is that Radke includes sections on many of the tools authors will need to successfully run their own business. In clear, concise, easy-to-understand language, the author gives an overview of various items including printers, invoices, banking, prepayment options, contracts, mailing list sources, shipping, flyers, and even how to be a good guest on TV as well as a myriad of other topics. Of course, Radke also covers the more common subjects such as copyright, where to get an ISBN, cover design and press releases. [more] |
