Cincinnati Book Publishing

• Personal satisfaction - the joy in research and writing about a favorite topic is a rewarding avocation. Your work will have an enduring life in a beautifully designed and printed book.

• Time matters - even authors who had successful books with national publishers have come to us when they tired of waiting for a standard publisher to accept a new manuscript that did not fit any publisher's immediate need. And they have been happy they took the entrepreneurial route.

• Profit - unless you are a Grisham, Schlesinger, or former President, a mainstream publisher will not offer a six-figure advance and any proposed fee may seem low. Royalties may not be an option. At Cincinnati Book Publishing, authors receive expert assistance that enables them to recoup their costs, and oftentimes, to make a nice profit.

• Quality control - your book will meet the standards you expect and desire. You approve the design, the cover art, and the retail price. You approve the marketing program. And you control the advertising budget.

• Direct marketing potential - selling books through organizations, book fairs, direct mail, bookstores, and on the Web allows authors to realize a significant return on their investment. Any unsold merchandise can sometimes be given to a charitable organization to sell or use for its benefit, and the donor may qualify for a tax deduction.
