Summit Press Publishers

Summit Press Publishers is a boutique independent publisher that specializes in highly polished non-fiction books that mean business. We position our authors as authorities in their areas of expertise. Our objective is to attain for our authors a high return on the investment in their books. Summit Press is also uniquely positioned to support its authors in the creation of programs and products attendant to their books such that their books become the catalyst for significant streams of revenue. Summit Press proudly distinguishes itself from the anachronistic traditional publishing houses. Summit Press does not require formal book proposals. Our authors reach the market in months rather than years. They maintain a high level of creative and editorial control over the publication of their books. And they enjoy above-market royalty payouts. Most important, our authors retain all of their intellectual property for all time. Summit Press does not pay advances. Advances are advances against royalties, and traditional publishing houses require that those advances are satisfied prior to the payout of royalties. Our authors enjoy their royalty stream from the date of publication. Please note well: Working with Summit Press will require an investment of time and money. Writing a book, taking it to publication, and getting it out into the world, is not for the faint of heart. While the acquisition team at Summit Press reviews all submissions, our selection process is highly competitive. Summit Press is not interested in publishing books that are simply placeholders or expensive business cards. Rather Summit Press publishes books that change lives, and make a lasting impact in the world. If that’s your mission, then we should talk. We review all submissions! https://summitsuccess.typeform.com/applynow
