Publishing with Insights Publisher ensures that your title is accessible to thousands of retailers around the globe, which is critical if you are serious about selling copies of your book.
Why Distribution Matters
Channel distribution enables your book to be ordered by and distributed to online booksellers and retailers around the world. This allows you to reach a wide audience and compete in the book marketplace.
If your publishing goals include more than giving away copies of your book to friends and family, book distribution is essential. Although it may sometimes be possible to sell directly to bookstores, booksellers prefer dealing with a few wholesalers and distributors rather than entering into transactions with individual authors.
Help Readers Discover Your Book
While some retailers, such as the iBooks Store, are strictly for e-books, many stores offer both the print and e-book versions on their websites. Learn more about some of the distributors and retailers Insights Publisher works with to make your book available for purchase around the globe.
