Publishing a book professionally requires more than uploading a manuscript and hoping readers discover it. Authors who want their books to compete in the marketplace need experienced editing, thoughtful design, reliable distribution, and a marketing strategy that gives the finished book a genuine opportunity to be seen.
Seacoast Press is an award-winning hybrid publisher based in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. We work with authors who want professional publishing support while retaining the rights, royalties, and creative involvement that matter to them.
Our publishing model gives authors access to an experienced team without requiring a literary agent or the lengthy submission process commonly associated with traditional publishing.
Professional Publishing Without Giving Up Your Book
For many authors, hybrid publishing offers a practical middle ground between traditional publishing and handling every part of the process independently.
At Seacoast Press, authors can retain their rights and receive 100% of their royalties while working with professionals throughout the publishing process.
Depending on the publishing program selected, services may include professional editing, custom cover design, interior book formatting, ebook preparation, distribution, and marketing.
Every book is different, and the publishing strategy should reflect that.
A memoir may need a very different launch plan from a business book. A novel may require different positioning than a children’s book or nonfiction title. Our role is to help authors understand their options and choose a path that makes sense for the book they have written.
Distribution That Extends Far Beyond New Hampshire
Although Seacoast Press is headquartered in New Hampshire, our reach is national.
Books published through Seacoast Press can be made available through major retailers and distribution channels, including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-A-Million, Target.com, Walmart.com, and other booksellers.
That means an author in Portsmouth, Manchester, Concord, Nashua, or anywhere else in New Hampshire can work with a local publishing company while still releasing a book to readers across the country.
Book Marketing for Authors Who Want Greater Visibility
Publishing is only one part of building a successful book.
Seacoast Press also offers marketing opportunities for authors who want to increase awareness of their books and author brands. Services can include Amazon bestseller campaigns, digital advertising, publicity, social media promotion, and media coverage opportunities on major network affiliate websites.
The objective is not simply to publish a book. It is to give the book a professional foundation and provide authors with meaningful ways to promote it.
A New Hampshire Publisher With Nationwide Reach
Seacoast Press combines the personalized experience of a New England publishing company with the professional infrastructure needed to distribute and market books nationally.
