Self Publishing in Calgary? I think not.
I have a book for sale on Amazon @ https://www.amazon.ca/dp/1999442601 for $11.95. I think this is reasonable, but when Amazon adds their shipping costs, it becomes costly. In order to save my customers money, I have been looking for a Print On Demand service in Calgary. I have contacted several companies here for estimates, and have recieved back per copy prices ranging from $16-$29. What!? I cannot sell my little paperback book for those prices. KDP's price for authors copies including shipping is $6.50/copy. I recieved one quote that was below this price, but unfortunately, the minimum run I could do is 100 copies. I might be able to sell 100, but at this point I can't pay for them. Maybe I should go to Staples and investigate building my own books. :) Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mjmauthor Blog: https://mjmpublishing.blogspot.com instagram @michael.mathison2
