Printed copies
Printed copies and short print runs.
Copies for a launch, a conference table, a church bookstall or a bulk order. Tell us what you need and we will quote it properly, the same day or the next working morning.
What to tell us
Six things and we can price it accurately: book size, page count, quantity, whether the interior is colour or black only, paper preference, and when you need them by. If you are not sure on any of it, say so and we will advise.
What a print run is usually for
Print on demand through Amazon handles ordinary sales perfectly well. A short run is for the moments that build standing: a launch event, a conference table, copies for a congregation, or something to leave behind after a pitch.
Already publishing with us?
Thirty copies come with Bound and one hundred with the Authority Programme. For everything else, printed copies are an add-on to any package.
Page count must be a multiple of four, because pages print on folded sheets. Cream paper is easier on the eye for long-form reading and is the usual choice for memoir and ministry. White is standard for business books.
Full colour interiors cost considerably more and are usually only worth it for children’s books, workbooks and anything image-led.
Standard runs take ten to fifteen working days. Faster is possible and costs more, so tell us the date you actually need them by rather than the date you would like them.
If the copies are for a launch, work backwards from the event and add a fortnight. Printers slip, and it is better to have boxes sitting in a hallway than to be refreshing a tracking page.
