Our Process
Publishing processes vary from publisher to publisher, but WinePress merges the best of self-publishing and traditional publishing to ensure you maintain control and obtain the highest level of excellence.
- Project Discovery: This initial phase establishes the basis for your book—your goals, your title, your manuscript, and your publishing destination.
- Print Assessment: It is important to assess and determine the feasibility and flexibility of the desired product. WinePress works closely with the design team and a wide range of production facilities, utilizing the latest technology advances to achieve comprehensive solutions.
- Art Direction: Books are judged by their exterior appearance, which makes this a critical step in both the publishing process and the subsequent marketing strategy. Our design team researches current market trends, pairing this information with the book’s message for a stunning cover. The same design principles are also used for the interior of the book, presenting a uniform, professional interior layout.
- Production Management: Our staff of project managers provide expert guidance to each author and navigate the journey from the beginning to the final printed book. Their experience and personal attention ensure a quality product.
- Fulfillment and Distribution: All books are placed in the appropriate distribution channels, making them available for order through both major online retailers and brick-and-mortar stores. With WinePress, authors can rely on quick and reliable order fulfillment for their customer base.
- Marketing and Publicity: Promotional services are available as a la carte add-ons - customized to each author's specific goals and audience. Whether marketing materials, book trailers, or nationwide publicity, each level of promotion enhances the impact and overall strategy of our authors.
