Print on Demand companies print your book when there is a demand for it.   When somebody places an order for your book through a bookstore or an on-line service, your book is printed and shipped to the buyer. Until then, it stays in the electronic format only.  This is good in that it eliminates the overhead and cost for a hefty inventory taking up space in your garage.  It is bad when you don’t have books to sell and promote through your own channel of friends, contacts and supporters. CB Publishing & Design can provide all of the services of a Print on Demand company but we also provide much more. When CB Publishing & Design gives you a quote, that quote will include enough books at a reasonable price for you to resell, which will give you a return on your investment and/or copies to use for promotion.  Until somebody knows about your book, Print on Demand services only may not be the best avenue for you.  After all, how will readers know to ask for your book?  Of course, if one book is all you want, we can also accommodate you by producing that one book.
