Starting in April 2009, Ink & Paper Group will be offering a $100 appreciation gift to anyone who refers a custom publishing client to us that later turns into a SIGNED contract. The gift can either be a $100 certificate to Powell’s or the cash equivalent, and it’s all yours as long as a custom book comes from the connection. Help us to help each other during these financially difficult times by passing on the word when:

  • you have a freelance client who loved your editing and is now looking for a means of publishing,
  • you come across a friend or colleague who works for a nonprofit that is looking for new ways of promoting its mission and/or fostering donations,
  • you hear about a photography project or family story that deserves to be shared but may not have the mainstream appeal necessary to warrant a larger print run,
  • you know about someone who’s given up on publishing and thinks there is no room for their book in the current economic climate,
  • you know of anyone who wants to take publishing matters into their own hands but still wants a quality, professional product out of the deal.

There are two ways to proceed if you have someone in mind that you’d like to recommend:

  1. Connect us to this person/project with a personal introduction. That way we’ll know who to thank when a project comes from the collaboration.
  2. Just recommend that the potential client contacts us directly, and then make sure to remind them to mention your name as a reference. We’ll be asking how they heard about us regardless, but this provides a foot in the door for them as well.

That’s all there is to it! Once we have a signed contract and the project is successfully underway, we will happily send along our appreciation via the gift of your choice.

Please direct any questions or contacts to any one of the following:

  • Cameron Marschall, Custom Book Rep: cameron.marschall@inkandpapergroup.com
  • Jen Weaver-Neist, Custom Book Rep: jen.weaver-neist@inkandpapergroup.com
  • Linda M. Meyer, Editor in Chief: linda.meyer@inkandpapergroup.com

Thanks so much—as always—for your support of Ink & Paper Group and its mission. We wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for all our friends, which makes this as much YOUR company as it is ours.

Take care and all best,
~Ink & Paper Group
