The 2011 Gredunza Publishing Package

Gredunza Press has offered different publishing packages throughout its existence. Each has been loosely based off the idea of charging for individual publishing services and providing our clients with as much freedom and rights-holding as possible. This year, we’re continuing that philosophy in our 2011 Package, which in our opinion offers independent content creators the best possible choice for publishing services.

Traditionally, Gredunza Press has operated by our clients paying for our services following the completion of a product—the typical invoice freelance style of work. But we’re looking to make the decision to work with us even easier by eliminating that step. Starting today, our combined publishing services will not be charged via invoice, but by book order.

Many small presses utilize this technique. Publish with us, and the only cost to you is that we require you to order a certain number of your books, the profit of which goes to us. After this order, 100% of the profits will fall to the client. That’s something most small presses don’t do.

Though there isn’t an industry standard, most small presses require an order of at least 3-4 hundred books to cover their costs. But most first-print authors and small bookmakers generally sell fewer than that number, making the deal decidedly one-sided. With Gredunza Press, the number will be less. Contact us with your project and we will determine a price that works with your budget.

With Gredunza Press, we offer substantive and copy editing, custom book design (no templates here), ISBN & CIP information (and a book places in the Canadian Library of Congress), and a custom website to promote your work. This sort of publishing deal usually costs upwards of $1500-$3000. With us, you may not even need to spend a penny. On top of that, if you find a publisher that beats our offer, we’ll match it.
