Aussies Only
I’m a bit stumped so I’m reaching out to my R&D team members
in Australia.
I’m looking for a book packager – a company that does book cover design,
final editing, and interior design – before it goes to the printer.
Based IN AUSTRALIA.
Do you know someone who would do a great job at all three jobs,
or even one of them? (If I have to use three separate people I will)
Please post in the comments and thanks very much for your help!
David
P.S. The book launches April 12. Don’t worry, you’ll be hearing more about it.

Hi David,
I’ve done some initial research with the intention of publishing a book myself and can pass on a couple of contacts that caught my eye. I can’t speak from experience so these are simply leads to get you started. Hope they’re helpful nonetheless.

Hi David, I am forwarding an email reply from Marlia who enquired about the specifics of your printing job for Aussies – hope you don’t mind
hey mark,
thanks for sending this email through to me. sorry i didn’t get back to you yesterday i was flat out with work.
it sounds really good and im definitely keen to do the work for him. i reckon my work would be better suited to print this (providing he wants some of it in colour that is otherwise dad might be an option to print with).
if you could find out how many pages it is – not including the cover. if he has any pics could he supply them as high resolution images.
if you want you can forward this email onto him so he can see what i am requiring to know.
cheers
