Introducing Print on Demand

Self Publishing your books, also known as Print on Demand (POD), is perfect when you don't want to have books mailed to your address and stored away for long periods of time. This is common for authors who do book tours or speaking engagements.  It can also be a convenient way to do simple print runs if you don't want to do the marketing and promotion yourself. POD publishing offers a cost effective alternative where financial or storage space considerations are a concern. POD publishing involves printing only a number of books that you select. You can print from 1 to 1000 copies immediately without any delay and have them shipped to your door in as little as 24 hours and in certain cases by 9 p.m. the same day, to most developed countries if you pay premium express shipping fees. However if you are paying the standard rate, books take between 7 and 14 days to arrive to any address worldwide. At Queensland Self Publishing we can format your book for Print on Demand (POD) via Amazon and/or IngramSpark in as little as 10 days.

Rates for POD formatting services range between $AU350 – $AU510

This includes a 20–30 minute mentoring consultation.
