Instead of you working for a publisher, we work for you. Ballast Books is a full-service hybrid publisher that handles all aspects of book creation, design, publishing, marketing, distribution, and platform building.
Our authors include former Special Operations Forces, CEOs, entrepreneurs, and industry experts. They value retaining creative control, rights, and royalties, partnering with us to bring their visions to life.
A High-Quality Book Is the Cornerstone of A Larger Platform
Social media, new media (such as blogs and podcasts), traditional media, personal appearances and signings, speaking engagements, consulting, coaching, brand representation, and entrepreneurial opportunities are all part of an overall plan that Ballast custom creates for our authors.
We assist clients in selling more books, securing keynotes, expanding consulting opportunities, attracting customers, and booking media appearances. If you're a top performer with a compelling message and impressive background, we want to hear from you.
