About Us

Groundmark Press – Cooperative Publisher

 

Groundmark Press is a cooperative publisher. We use Print on Demand technology to minimise the need for expensive stock and manage the production process so that you don’t have to become a publisher to get your book published. For a fixed fee, we design your cover and the look of your book, put them together, set them up at a quality printer and arrange distribution through a reputable book wholesaler.

 

How does this differ from Mainstream Publishing?

 

Mainstream publishers will invest in an author, possibly even paying an advance. With this commitment, they will be looking for the top sellers in their category and have a limited number of books they will publish each year. All the costs of the book will be repaid from sales before the author receives a penny in Royalty. If you can get a deal with a mainstream publisher, this may be the right move for you. Remember, however, that they work to a timescale which may be anything from 9 months to a year or even longer.

 

Groundmark Press is not a Vanity Publisher

 

At the other end of the scale, our publishing takes money to produce books with no commitment to marketing and no expectation of sales beyond your initial order. We fit somewhere between the two. Technology is now making it possible to produce books on demand, so we don’t produce a large print run that sits in your spare room or garage, we print books as you need them.

 

Cooperative Publishing – Fixed Fees, Quality Result

 

• No need to learn the publishing process
• No stuffing envelopes and standing in line at the Post Office
• No boxes of books in the house, office or garage
• Let someone manage all that and just send you the royalty cheques
