Self Publishing and Distribution
About Distributing Your Book
At the time of this writing there are no perfect distribution
channels for the self-published book. Looking for the perfect
book distribution channel is like searching for the pot of
gold at the end of the rainbow.
Unless you have a detailed marketing plan and a good amount
of money working for you, and in many cases, access to media
and traditional bookstore distribution, you may be headed
for disappointing sales.
Don't get me wrong; I'm not predicting you won’t be
successful. But I am saying it will most likely be like swimming
against the tide trying to distribute and market books in
a traditional manner.
Here's another good reason to consider POD publishing or
printing your book through the Lighting Source company. Your
pod published book will be included in the Ingram database
as a POD title. This one program will make your book available
to a network of 20,000 retail stores including Amazon.com
and BN.com. This inexpensive distribution is a good starting
place for getting your books in the bookstores.
