Crafts Making

I hope it never happens to you, but if you submit to most craft book publishing organizations you stand a better than average chance of getting rejected. Maybe you already have. The problem is that the big publishers are looking for the next Dan Brown or J.K. Rowling and the small specialist craft publishers have to do a lot of math before they can invest in an unknown author.

The antidote is to publish your craft book yourself and you can do it using pretty much the same tools you used to write it in the first place!

Your computer can become the center of a publishing business that can reach around the world. What’s more, it can be marketing and selling your craft book while you’re on vacation, even while you’re asleep! It might be three am where you are, but on the other side of the globe people could be looking for your craft book – and the automated systems you set up will sell it and deliver it to them.

You wake up in the morning and find you’ve got more money in your bank account. Just a dream? Not at all. Exactly that is going on all the time, for dozens of DIY craft book publishers who have already discovered how simple the process can be… and how profitable!

The traditional publisher has to think about paper costs, print costs, warehousing and distribution, advertising, marketing, an almost endless list. It’s not surprising that they want to see estimates of pretty big returns before they agree to print.

Doing it yourself requires nothing like the investment. You need a computer and a connection to the internet – which you’ve already got – and you need a blog or website. A blog is recommended as it’s something that you can easily do yourself, but even if you pay someone to build a site for you it’s only going to cost a few hundred dollars. That’s it.

DIY craft book publishing doesn’t require a big investment in materials or machinery because firstly you publish digitally and second you use a print-on-demand company who will start at a minimum order of just one!

If you’ve had a craft book rejected, or you’d just rather avoid all the stress, you owe it to yourself to get the full facts about just how simple DIY craft book publishing can be. The definitive guide is here: Craft Book Publishing and it might just change things for you completely.
