Mission Point Press

MISSION POINT PRESS, based in Traverse City, Michigan, offers aspiring and veteran authors more than 85 years of combined experience in writing, designing, publishing and marketing the written word. We are an affiliation of talented professionals who have worked on every kind of book you can imagine—from two New York Times bestsellers to gorgeous cookbooks to award-winning fiction, political exposés, memoir and self-help. For authors seeking a traditional route to publishing, we offer an in-depth query service to literary agencies. We also employ award-winning, traditionally published authors for those who need coaching, editing, and ghost writing. Because marketing can often be the most challenging aspect of publication, we employ social media and public relations professionals. MISSION POINT PRESS is a hybrid publisher, meaning that we publish our own books under the Mission Point Press imprint, as well as books by authors who work with us. Authors who self-publish with Mission Point Press retain 100% of their royalties and full control of their printing and distribution accounts. Self-publishing can be lonely and overwhelming, but with MISSION POINT PRESS, you're part of an honest and experienced team, and your book will be a part of our catalog of bestsellers. Although we are based in Northwest Lower Michigan and specialize in books about Michigan, we have worked with authors from across the country, including a heavy concentration of work in the Kansas City, Missouri, region.
