InstantPublisher Adds Warehousing and Fulfillment Services to Quarantine Writing Advice and Book Self-Publishing Services Discount

COLLIERVILLE, Tenn. -- InstantPublisher.com is proud to add warehousing and fulfillment services to its line of self-publishing services. Why did InstantPublisher add these services for their customers? Printed books, especially hardcover books, take up a lot of space. Storing books in an author's garage or basement might not be an option. In addition, some authors, especially for books delivered by businesses, encounter a lack of proper, climate-controlled warehouse space to store their books.

Another way that warehousing and fulfillment services may benefit self-publishing customers is that few print-on-demand companies will offer print-on-demand services for hardcover books, wire-bound books, or custom-sized books with embellishments such as foil stamping and special coating. These books also require proper storage.

Another warehouse and fulfillment service InstantPublisher.com offers is kitting. Kitting is when you bundle multiple pieces in an order, such as multiple book titles or custom-printed advertising pieces, and ship them as packages together.

"Our customers asked for this service, so we found a way to make it happen," says Chris Bradley, President of InstantPublisher.com. "Our warehouse and fullfillment services addresses a need for some of our self-publishing and our custom commercial printing services customers."

Please keep in mind that warehousing and fulfillment is not necessary for all customers. If you or your business only sell a couple of books a month, it makes more sense to be to store the and ship the books yourself until you build your sales up.

InstantPublisher Offers Quarantine Writing Advice and Book Self-Publishing Services Discount

COLLIERVILLE, Tenn. -- According to 2002 study popularized by Joseph Epstein of the New York Times "81 percent of Americans feel that they have a book in them - and should write it." This equates to roughly 170 million adults over the age of 18 out of the entire United States population alone says InstantPublisher; a conservative number of potential authors. Maybe you are one of them.

During the unprecedented COVID-19 outbreak, many people have been impacted by the stay-at-home orders requested by state and national leaders, and many have had work hours cut severely, been laid off, or released from jobs completely all waiting for the COVID-19 crisis to pass. With these stay-at-home orders keeping many social and entertainment venues closed, many people find themselves with a lot of free time on their hands, and the "someday" that many of us have stated as the day we will find the time to write that book is "today."

But writing a book is just half of the battle. The next step is getting your book into the hands of readers. Many authors long to get a lucrative book deal from one of the Big 5 book publishers such as Hachette, HarperCollins, Macmillan, Penguin Random House, and Simon & Schuster, but landing a publishing contract with one of these companies is highly competitive and takes a lot of time and rejection before you find success. This leaves many authors looking for an alternative way of getting their books into print-an alternative way such as using a self-publishing book printing company.

And according to Chris Bradley, President of InstantPublisher, "The COVID-19 outbreak has also unleashed incredible demand-and corresponding sales-for cookbooks, self-improvement books, and binge-worthy novel series, just to name a few."

So, how do you, as a potential author, take advantage of this demand? Write that book now and get it in the hands of a high-quality self-publishing book printing company such as InstantPublisher.

To help potential authors reach the goal of seeing their creative works in print, InstantPublisher is offering a limited-time 10% discount for first-time customers on any book publishing package if the order has been placed by July 1, 2020. Use the coupon code: print-2020. We also will be running a series of blog posts over the next 3 months dedicated to guiding the author along the writing process and educating them about the numerous benefits of self-publishing your own books.

"We really want to encourage potential authors during this difficult time. Helping them get those books written and into print as fast as possible," states Bradley. "InstantPublisher has printed over 11 million books since our start in 2001, and hopes to help authors achieve their self-publishing dreams, and help create something positive out of this crisis."

InstantPublisher Releases Tip Sheet on Reasons to Write and Print Your Own Book Now

COLLIERVILLE, Tenn. -- InstantPublisher.com announces the release of a tip sheet covering the reasons why you should write and print your own book now.

There has never been a better time for self-publishing authors to get their books out in the marketplace. Widely available high-speed internet access has made the rise of the independent or "indy" author, as well as the emergence of online passive income businesses, a mainstay of the 21st century economy. Both of these create value through the writing and self-publishing of books.

So, what are some of the other motivations to write and publish your own book today? Consider these:

1. Learn a New Skill

According to a recent report from CollegeBoard, a panel established by the National Commission on Writing, businesses are spending $3.1 billion each year on remedial writing training. Good writing takes practice and what better way to practice writing than writing a book? Developing advanced writing skills through this process can open doors to many career opportunities.

2. There Are More Available Tools Than Ever Before

Anyone with access to an internet capable device can use powerful word processing tools that can create a professional quality manuscript with little time and effort. And tools such as Canva, Jing and (if you are particularly skilled) Photoshop can help create custom book covers that are as good as-or better than-those produced by commercial publishers.

3. Writing Skills Resources Are Readily Available

There are numerous online courses and YouTube videos devoted to teaching writing craft. Online forums connect authors together in communities that offer feedback and help in ways that weren't possible before the rise of the internet.

Also, if you are struggling to bring your stories to life, hire a writing coach or ghostwriter to help organize the thoughts on the page and edit the manuscript for publication and distribution.

4. Selling Books is Easier than Ever
Where great authors of the past got their start from selling books out of the trunks of their cars, the internet allows "indy" authors to sell books globally with a click of the mouse.

5. Make Money

Whether using a book to promote a product-or the book is the product-there is money to be made in books. Earn money from book and product sales, as well as through increased business opportunities that arise from the publication of a book. Books are also great sources of passive income because they do not require a brick-and-mortar store and can be sold 24/7/365.

6. Increases Credibility & Visibility

Writing a book is an excellent way to build credibility for yourself or your company. It establishes thought leadership and is a fantastic means of self-promotion. A book about your business or an emerging trend can actually attract business to your company. Using a high-quality self-published book as a "leave behind" at a business presentation or job interview is almost guaranteed to create buzz about you and your company.

7. Personalized Book Printing is Cost-Effective and Simple

Printing a book has never been easier, or less expensive. With current digital publishing tools and techniques, self-publishing book companies can deliver short-run book printing at a fraction of the cost of printing in previous years.

In short, if you are capable of writing words you are capable of creating a book. And why not take advantage of the tools, knowledge and technology to print your own book today?
