Corporate Book Presses – From creation to operations, to working with your employee writers, we will establish a foot hold in the technical publishing world and publish books about your technology and devices.

Publishing business development – most companies have information internally that could benefit consumers, developers and partners but are inaccessible and underused. We will help you find, package, publish and distribute it in ways that benefit your consumers, your company, and your brand.

Writing assignments – we will write, edit, and manage your books on a individual basis. We will find publishers for the book and write as a fee-based project with all royalties going to the company.

Ghost writing – interim project management of books, whether a business book, an autobiography, or a vision book. We will ghost write it for your executives and find a publisher.

New Product Launch – often books can be a valuable part of an overall product launch, we will work with your Product Launch team to ensure a new book about your new technology or device is released simultaneously.
