1 First of all, the author himself needs to prepare a complete manuscript.
2. At present, most individuals cooperate with publishing companies themselves, and then pay a certain publishing fee to achieve the purpose of publishing books. Because publishing has certain requirements for publishing books, they also need to examine the sales prospects of books and the reactions of readers and friends in society. Most individuals can't publish books directly from the publishing house.
3. Book number fee is the most important part of individual publishing, and it is also an unavoidable expense. For those who want to publish books or evaluate professional titles, the book number is a must. At present, the single book number is the most widely used, because it is much more convenient than the series number for printing, publishing and final sales, so the price of the single book number is also the most expensive.
4. In addition to the ISBN fee, other fees to be paid include manuscript typesetting and design fee, error correction fee, checking and proofreading fee, post-printing fee, etc. These fees are charged by publishing companies, because they need to arrange professional editors to handle the editing and processing of manuscripts, which also requires manpower and material resources, so they need to charge a certain labor fee.
After paying the above related expenses, the book will be printed and published. After the audit is completed, the publishing society will issue the book number, CIP, commission form, etc. (Some of them have power of attorney).
6. The manuscript will be sent directly by the publishing house to the printing house for printing and distribution.
Finally, the problem of book sales. The author can cooperate with the publishing house to sell, or find a suitable sales channel to sell. Of course, publishing books can be used not only for sales, but also for evaluating professional titles, enhancing popularity and so on.
