Publishing Services for Corporations, Nonprofit Organizations, and Individuals Who Wish to Self-Publish

GGP Publishing, Inc., meets with you to brainstorm and develop your book idea. We write and develop the manuscript, performing all required editorial services. We then design the book and put it through all stages of production, handing you finished files to go to the printer with. We can also print for you the traditional way and make recommendations on distribution, marketing, and publicity; or guide you through the process of print-on-demand. If you already have a manuscript, then the process would most likely start at the editorial stage.
