WHAT IS THE CD MEDIA/PRESS KIT?

Our Marketing Department will supply you with instructions for devising your own marketing plan and promotional calendar, along with a sample to start with. Your book marketing plan and promotional calendar is one of the the single most important part of your CD Media/Press kit, as it is what Barnes & Noble Small Press and Borders Acquisitions will look at when determining whether or not to stock or order your book for their retail stores.

 "The CD/Media Kit arrived today. All I can say is WOW! It is by far a very professional layout. I would highly recommend anyone who publishes through Outskirts to purchase the CD/Media Kit. It is money well-worth as far as marketing is concerned."
