Why Rank Publishing?

What is Self-Publishing?
Self-publishing is a form of
publishing whereby the author undertakes the cost of
production of his/her book.
The author engages the services of a
publishing consultant, who will oversee the entire
publishing process from the editorial stage, design and layout
to printing.
You would consider
self-publishing if you are:
-
a writer looking forward to
publish your book.
-
a consultant or trainer who
wishes to share your knowledge and expertise
with your clients and/or your trainees.
-
a member of a corporation
who wishes to publish a corporate
commemorative book or a publication for your
employees.
-
part of an organization that
is thinking of producing a publication
without knowing how or where to start.

Why Self-Publishing?
Total Control
You have control over
your book in terms of creative presentation,
profit, selling price, publishing and
reprinting rights, as well as distribution.
No Restriction of Rights
You retain the rights to
publish your book with other publishers, get
your book translated, or even sell your
rights to film makers.
No Rejection
Many people have chosen to
self-publish their books as a solution to
being rejected by publishing houses that are
unwilling to publish their material.
Faster Results
Your book will be out within
90 days. Major publishing houses take at
least a year or more to read manuscripts,
respond and print.
High Profits
Earn 100% of the profits
from your book sales, not the standard 8-10%
royalty rate that most publishers pay.
Personal Fulfillment
See your work in print and
fulfill your dream of becoming a published
author.
Self-Promoting Publicity
Tool
As a published author, you
gain instant visibility when your book is
displayed in bookstores, reviewed by the
media, or distributed among business
associates, staff, students or the general
public.
Open Doors to Opportunities
Let the book open up new
business opportunities, win new customers
and increase your business profits.
