Publishing books – reasons to choose us
Publishing books and the reasons to choose SPB to print books in Asia (not China.)
Self-publishing books with us is great for many reasons. We often have conversations with self-publishers. The response below to an author outlines why you should use us:
Dear Sam:
After reviewing your specifications and current costs for publishing books, we think you are paying far too much for the books you are printing locally. That alone is a reason to do business with us. Star Print Brokers offers high-quality coffee table book printing in Asia, among many other projects. Our cost, DDP, includes delivery, with duty paid, to your door. We will take longer to print than if you print locally, because of the 9-11 days ocean travel, but the trade-off is lower cost as well as high-quality. Our minimum is 2,000 copies for a soft cover book, and 1,000 copies for a hardcover book. But, if you are printing more than one title at the same time, we can likely print 1,000 soft cover copies too.
After reviewing your specifications and current costs, we think you are paying far too much for publishing books that are printed locally.
We are printing brokers, representing our clients, not our vendors. That is a great reason to use our services for publishing books. Here is yet another reason … We provide high-quality, lower cost, process color book printing, on press. You will pay no more for our services as we get volume pricing for book printing. Printers want our business as we bring them lots of titles. We troubleshoot files and advise clients of issues that could become a problem in printing.
More key reasons …
Top Reasons include: What good is it to print 2,000 books if only 1,000 are in condition to sell?
There are other key reasons. We stand behind the books we print. That is a huge factor. All printers will tell you they do great work, and will tell you they stand behind their work. But we do what we say, and have proven it, repeatedly. Can you find lower costs? Possibly, but there are horror stories that are associated with super low pricing. We tell our clients, “What good is it to print 2,000 books if only 1,000 are in condition to sell?” If you are familiar with printing books in China, you will love Star Print Brokers difference in quality, customer service, and cost.
We represent our clients, not printers. Here is an important reason; if something goes wrong, we fight for our clients. Fortunately, things seldom go wrong, because we’ve already tested and approved our select group of printers. That is something our clients don’t have to do, as it is usually costly. Most printers have their own interests at heart, not those of the author or publisher. We will represent clients only.
