Why Choose Us?
“By Writers. For Writers” is our mission statement. Simply put, we’ve sat where you sit. At MidTown Publishing, we transcend the standard “publisher/writer relationship” offered at other publishing houses because we’ve customized our approach to publishing from “one-size-fits-all” to what we call “personalized publishing.”
At MidTown Publishing, personalized publishing is serious
business. We want you to earn the reward you deserve for all those hours at your writer’s desk. First, we look at your metadata (your storyline, synopsis, targeted reader, your marketing plans, etc) that you supplied to us with your Query Letter Template. From this information, we’ll talk with you about promotional channels we believe will offer your new title the greatest sales potential. In the good old days, publishers peddled a new author’s work with book signings, followed by a stream of interviews with newspapers and TV. Nowadays, if you’re lucky, a book signing might generate enough cash to fill half your gas tank, and if it’s a slow news day you might get five minutes with an overworked local news reporter. These are still hallowed PR steps, and we don’t suggest you ignore them; however, MidTown Publishing gets sales traction by working networks of all types, whether social media groups online such as Facebook, Twitter, Google +, Reddit, Tumblr, Pinterest, StumbleUpon, and Linkedin, or through like-minded trade groups and associations that connect with certain audiences. Yes, you can write a book and expect to find certain readers, because MidTown Publishing works to match the core of your story that resonates with specific audiences.
