NBN SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

Thank you for your interest in NBN. While we welcome all submissions, NBN is especially interested in publishers with established programs and new titles every year.

CRITERIA

NBN's Sales and Marketing Team considers many criteria when assessing potential new publishers. Here are some of the elements we look for:

  • Well-designed trade
  • Understanding of core consumer for publishing progam
  • Strong marketing to reach core consumer
  • Willingness to collaborate with distribution partner
  • Set mutually agreeable expectations for sales targets

    • SINGLE TITLE PUBLISHERS

    NBN does not encourage submissions from publishers with single, self-published titles. Publishers with single-title lists should contact one of the numerous distributors who work with startup self-publishers.

    RESPONSE TIME

    NBN receives hundreds of new submissions per year, and we evaluate each one. Please allow 4-6 weeks for our response.

    WHAT YOUR PACKAGE SHOULD INCLUDE:

  • A copy of your best-selling titles (or artwork, page spreads or galleys for books in production)
  • A completed Prospective Publisher Questionnaire
  • Any recent advertising and reviews for your titles.
  • Current catalog, if available.
