Trade publishing is a service that deals with the production and sale of books meant for the general audience through common book dealers. This service has played a critical role in helping authors profit from their work by taking it from the manuscript stage to market-grade material.
Often, the idea of sending a personal manuscript off into the world to be looked at by critical and unfamiliar readers is one that can turn an author’s stomach. And even after you conquer that fear, take that deep breath, and decide to start looking for publishers, new questions start to arise. Night Heron Media is here to help.
Trade Publishing with Night Heron Media
Night Heron Media offers a full-service trade publishing package available for anyone who submits a manuscript that we accept for publication. Following submission review and acceptance, our team will help you through the process of bringing your manuscript to life! From editing and design to printing and binding, we will work with you to share your beautiful book with the general population through local and national retailers. To get started, visit our Submissions page to view our guidelines.
Night Heron Media’s full-service package includes:
Manuscript Consultations
Through a manuscript consultation at Night Heron Media, writers will undergo the process of having their work reviewed by our professional publishers, who will eventually provide constructive feedback that can help improve a manuscript’s chance of being published. This stage is valuable in many ways; often, this feedback is the first time an author has heard back on their work!
Editing
Furthermore, Night Heron Media offers editing services provided by our professional editorial team, guaranteed to filter any remaining mistakes from the final product.
Design, Illustration & Photography
Despite what we’ve all been told, it’s not just what’s on the inside that counts (well, not this time), and because of this, Night Heron Media works closely with a professional team in illustration, Photoshop, and digital editing. Wherever you choose to publish, keep in mind the importance of having a professional-looking book cover that will hold up in the market, because no matter what we’ve been told, you can judge a book by its cover.
Of course, the inside of your book matters too! If you have a children's book, we'll match you with one of many talented illustrators to really bring your story into fruition. Prefer to use beautiful images instead? Our photographers can help!
Printing & Binding
Once the concept has come to life, it’s time for the book itself to come to life; that’s right, it’s time to print! As a part of the full-service trade publishing package offered by Night Heron Media, an author receives printing and binding of as low as 250 copies and as high as 4000 copies.
Marketing & Distribution
Now that the product is ready, Night Heron Media will help attract attention to the release by setting up a comprehensive social media presence for the author and distributing the book to various online and brick-and-mortar outlets.
So there you are, the idea of a publishing agreement doesn’t have to lie in the mystery genre, and it shouldn’t! Follow Night Heron Media’s blog and social media to find out everything you need to know before you send your work off, and do not hesitate to get all of your questions answered by contacting us today.
