Publishing Business |
|
|
|
With the launch of publishing titles in
Marathi and English, to begin with, Granthayan will also focus on publishing titles in
other regional languages. |
|
|
|
Granthayan promises to publish every potential author
in the state, this can be a huge trendsetter – one that converts consumers
into potential business partners in a win-win manner. |
|
|
|
“Let a million voices bloom” |
|
|
|
Granthayan offers five services. |
| |
|
|
|
DTP |
|
|
Proof Reading |
|
|
Editing |
|
|
Production |
|
|
Distribution & Marketing |
|
|
|
|
|
Granthayan promises to offer the above services in a
commercial but transparent manner. |
|
|
|
Granthayan and the Author have to sign in a formal
legal agreement to safeguard everybody's interest in a mutually agreed &
beneficial manner. |
|
|
|
Author can avail these services on a nominal fee for
example: |
|
DTP charges Rs. 30/per page |
|
Proofreading Rs 15/per page |
|
Editorial Services Rs 45/per page |
|
Production on actuals |
|
Distribution & Marketing Rs 10,000/per book |
|
|
(For mumbai based people payment to be made by cheque only and for Outstation People payment should be made by Demand Draft only.) |
|
|
|
This concept also envisages translation of titles
across the linguistic spectrum of India under one umbrella. The
socio-cultural impact, as also business and employment potential, of such
a project would be hard to under-estimate. |
|
|
|
Still many authors write manually, in such a case it
needs to be fed into a computer, proofed it twice to take care of the
language and grammar, Editorial services will play major role to describe
the quality of the book. |
|
|
|
Author’s word is final!! |
|
We will provide detailed suggestions to author
in writing. |
|
Author takes a call on these suggestions whether to
manuscript as per requirement or leave it as it is “thus leaving the
author fully responsible for his/her product”. |
|
|
|
Granthayan assures the production to be at par with
international standards with superior quality of materials. |
|
|
|
Distribution & Marketing |
|
|
|
Not the least but most vital part of the Granthayan
venture would be in distribution and marketing. |
|
|
|
Using today’s Internet technology
Granthayan would be placing books on their website “Granthayan.com” for
search & buy facility. |
|
|
|
Granthayan would also actively advertise their titles
through the reach of media. |
|
|
|
Adding to the above - these books would be reviewed
by Granthayan’s panel of critics and the titles would be distributed to 35
newspapers stretched allover Maharashtra thus summing up to at least 15 to
20 reviews to be published. This would ensure state-wide exposure and not
just features in a handful of papers. |
|
|
|
Granthayan’s distribution channel is ready, running
and has the possibility to reach newly published titles throughout the
state. |
|
|
|
The book land directly on the bookshelf from Granthayan doing away with any middleman and thus it price will be lower by 25% than the market price. |
|
|
|
Unsolicited Scripts |
|
|
|
Granthayan shall also be offering 50% royalty to each
and every author, valid only for unsolicited scripts sent by new& upcoming
writers for those who are ready to invest. |

services at no costs with the royalty payoff of 30% after recovering
Granthayan’s investment (approx. after first 400 copies sold), leaving the
option for authors to enjoy 30% royalty for lifetime. Full details
