Julie, thanks for the video as I did not know what a hybrid publisher was at all! Listen and learn!
Woohooo love when I can share something you didn't know.
Thank you, this is exactly what I found in the marketplace. You have such a different and better approach by creating a truly win-win situation. I know whatever my outcome is the Book Launchers team is the one.
Great information that all authors should pay attention to!
Another Excellent video. And we've already gained SO much from working with Book Launchers on our new book, and it's only just gone into Content Editing - so glad we found you before we went any further with it! :) Best decision we could have made! :)
Wonderful! I am so happy to hear that. It's a pleasure working with you!
Is it just as much as self-publishing without? I'm panicked about the prices but want to keep my story authentic.
I'd heard about vanity publishers, but was unaware of hybrid. Thanks for the information.
You're welcome!
Julie, you are 100 percent.
Thank you!
Yaaaaaaaaay! It's a Book Launchers video!
:)
So you guys are an assisted self- publishing?
How do you compare to IUniverse?
Do you do Fiction Books?
Hello!! We do not do fiction books.
iUniverse is not a really reputable company - check out their listing on the Alliance of Independent Authors directory. selfpublishingadvice.org/best-self-publishing-services/
Where’s the watchdog link you mentioned?
It's there but here it is as well: selfpublishingadvice.org/self-publishing-service-reviews/
@@BookLaunchers oh, it was further down the page. I see it now. Thanks!
@@peachgeek No worries! Sometimes I forget to include the links in the descriptions so it never hurts to ask! :)
Julie this video only confirms exactly what I found out there in the market. Your model is the only true WIN/WIN way unless you are one of a very few. Thank you.
That's so great to hear!! I really appreciate that. I know you talked to some of the other major companies in the space so that means a lot.
Oooh that's very sneaky of vanity publishers with how they try to mask their business practices!
Great video as always 😎

Right?! The person on my team that helps me with content for these videos used to work as a sales person for a vanity publisher so she could have gone into even more detail as to their sketchy practices. It's sad and scary.
I can’t imagine thinking I was good enough right out of the gate without the need for editors. Without the promise of great editors at minimum for a new author…one word…scam! Good video.
Thank you! Happy Friday!!
Hello i Am book writer I have already writes 2 Book in 2 months and I am writing to may third book so I have published my book all social media platforms so can you please help me please please give me a reply fast
All vanity publishers are hybrid publishers. But not all hybrid publishers are vanity publishers. Exactly. With a good hybrid you get far better royalties than you would with a traditional publisher and not much less than if you went solo with Amazon.
I'm so glad I never got involved with those predator publishers. I've heard some horror stories!
Hybrid = Canadian + Arizonian ?
I will strongly recommend Book Launchers to anyone seeking Self Publishing assistance from a Professional
hahahaha well I live in Nevada but I do sort of feel like a hybrid human at times ;) Happy FRIDAY!!! And, thank you. :)
Julie what services do you offer if my book has already been written but in of marketing & promotions?
@@BookLaunchers not sure why I thought Phoenix vs Las Vegas, lol. I think they're cousins.
@@tobiasbalda2037 They are really similar and both rather hot right now.
Hi Linda - we rarely take on marketing only clients. We're looking at building out a service for this but our experience has been that it is tough to help a book succeed if it's missing the fundamentals. This video explains: ruclips.net/video/VwtYvIU6DOo/видео.html
Our services are on our website here: booklaunchers.com/self-publishing-services-overview/
If that looks like something that would help you, then I’d love to chat with you. To set up a call and help me prepare for it, please take a few minutes to share some details on this form: www.booklaunchers.com/apply Once we receive that you’ll hear from Mimi Almeida within one business day with a link to schedule a call with one of us.
Thank you!

Thx. I watched it. They are a vanity publisher. I have a 2 books 2 yr contract for 11 bookstores 72 grand 5300 warehousing fee with them. Refundable.
So if I screwed up it's a bit late. But both books were highly important. Traditional publishers are hard to get. So are bookstores. You make it sound easy.
It's definitely not easy but it's very possible!! You're paying a big price tag so I hope it all works out for you. If you have questions along the way - feel free to ask in the comments! Good luck.
@@BookLaunchers I have no choice. To save souls.
While the thought of an advance with traditional publishing sounds nice, I’d much rather own my rights and have creative control. I mean, it’s my blood, sweat and tears, so I should get credit and have a say. So, self-publishing for the win!
Hybrid publishing has its place, too, but…as long as I still own my work. Kinda protective over that, rightly so. :-P
:) HAHAH a gal after my own heart and mind.
i self published mine,
Is it worth it?
@@melissabouzidi7094 if you dont want the hassle of waiting on rejection letters from agents then yes
Is Olympia Publishers save if they send me a hybrid publishing contract
If you search them here: selfpublishingadvice.org/best-self-publishing-services/ you will see that they are not in good standing with the industry watchdogs.
Is there a traditional publishing company that will take a non-fiction book
@@johannescwolfaardt6234 sure but it depends on your platform and your topic. It's probably best to consider self-publishing and go from there! Have you read Self-Publish and Succeed? I think it would be a great resource to help you navigate this: www.selfpublishandsucceed.com
Most of the industrialists of the world pay money to the raw material provider for their raw materials for their industry and then sell their cooked/final product to the user, but a hybrid/vanity publisher is the only industrialist who asks for cooperation amount in place of paying to the raw material provider.
Yes, you heard it right. They do not pay money for raw materials (i.e., literature created by writers). Because they don't want to take the trouble of going to the user (i.e., the reader) of the cooked material or final product (book)? Why bother when you can make money just by printing the book?

Complete control over rights and royalties. That's a big deal!
100%
Vanity Press do what they have to do to get your money.
Sad but true.
Wish I could of worked with you . However , in one email you state you like to work with me . However got another email stating not.

Sorry to hear that. We only work with authors that we feel we are the best fit to help. It's not personal - it's us making sure that you'll get a good return on your investment in our services. We like to look out for authors. I'd be happy to try to direct you to someone or a company that could help you if my team didn't already do that.
Then why are two agrreing to help me out then abanding me when I ask for help playing their dollar led game.
