SHATTER THE PUBLISHING MOLD: IT'S TIME TO START A PUBLISHING REVOLUTION
Full-rights publishing -- it's an innovative approach that is revolutionizing the publishing world and could be the cure for your publishing headache.
Rejection letters, rights negotiations, long wait times, and irresponsive editors are the norm of todays publishing world. Many authors begin writing their books with the belief that publishing is a glamorous business; what they soon find out is that its hard work -- and sometimes delivers few rewards.
Publishing can indeed be a painful experience; but Dawn Josephson, President and Founder of Cameo Publications, LLC, says there is a cure for this pain -- full-rights publishing. If you are a professional speaker or business owner trying to reach a target audience with a specific message, full-rights publishing may be the cure for your publishing headache," she says. The four major advantages to full-rights publishing are: 1) you can get your book published within a shorter timeframe, usually 3-4 months as opposed to the 18-24 month timeframe traditional publishers offer; 2) you maintain complete control over every word in your manuscript; 3) you earn 100% profit from your book sales, not a 7-12% royalty; and 4) you never give up any rights to your work, including copyright, subsidiary rights, licensing rights, etc."
While full-rights publishing is revolutionizing the publishing world, Josephson warns that its not for everyone. People need to ask themselves why they are writing a book," she says. Beyond the initial satisfaction of seeing your book in print, what is your motivation? Do you want to make money? Do you want to promote your business? Do you want fame? Do you want to enlighten your audience on a particular topic? Whatever your reason, it must be clear and strong enough to sustain you through the publication and promotion process."
The bottom line is that no one can predict a books success. And while writing is an art form, publishing is a business. As such, to be successful with full-rights publishing, you must be willing to treat your new book as a business. The keys to full-rights publishing success are to set realistic expectations on yourself and have a clear vision in mind," says Josephson. Armed with that mindset, you can be successful with full-rights publishing and be one of the many to shatter the publishing mold."
