When considering how to approach the topic of branding, be sure that you tread carefully. Remember, when you self-publish, you are essentially setting up a business. Whether you choose to publish through a subsidy press or if you decide to go 100% independent, you are still running a business. You are responsible for managing and promoting your written voice in some capacity, no matter the publishing path you choose. This is your time and money that is on the table, so take time to think about how branding is more than a label for your work. Branding is the most important element necessary for any business. When we shop, we are influenced by branding, whether we know it or not. We may look for quality and style, but branding is always affecting our decisions. From buying a vehicle to purchasing clothing, even to your weekly grocery trip, branding is present in a big way.

Self Publishing presents the savvy author with many unique benefits. In this 2 part video series, Kristen Eckstein, book coach and founder of www.iampublished.com talks you through the benefits and guides you to self publish your book the RIGHT WAY.

Self-publishing is an option that many aspiring authors are giving more consideration to these days. Therefore, as one chooses, you should consider all that is involved self-publishing. Did you know there is more than one option under the umbrella of “self-publishing?” These include choosing to either use a subsidy or vanity press company or to publish completely independently. Each of these options has its own set of “steps.”

When choosing to use a subsidy press or vanity publisher, you will likely only go through a couple of steps. These include approving the final copy of your book once you’ve submitted it and promoting and marketing, much of which you’ll still have to do yourself.

On the other hand, when publishing independently there are more steps involved, however you will soon understand why these steps are worth the effort. Publishing independently involves finding a contract editor as well as a contract book designer, going through the process of registering your ISBN number, your LCCN, copyrights and other registrations, contracting with a printer, and finally promoting and marketing.

Though it may seem like more work, and it likely is, the benefits are larger as well. When choosing to use subsidy publishing an author will split the profits with the press, most likely encounter quality issues, and run into distribution blocks when promoting to bookstores. However, when choosing to publish independently, you will keep 100% of the profits, end up with a higher quality book, and avoid those distribution blocks.

Ultimately, it is up to you, the author, to decide what option you will choose for publishing. After all, you are the one who must put in the work and who will benefit from the results. Take your time and choose wisely!
