Book Manufacturing Concepts
///////////////////////////////
With GCI new base set-up fee of $25.00, don't forget that one easy way to reduce the cost per book is to order more books. If you publish 25 books, the set-up cost adds $1 per book, if you order 250 books the per book share of the set up fee is only a dime ($.10). While the set up fee is a flat rate, it divides into the quantity for a per book share. Additionally, as your publishing gets larger, you'll save on printing and binding as bulk discounts are realized.

Marketing advice
///////////////////////////////
When ordering full color cards of a business or calling card size: Depending on the needs of the project, high gloss coating, available at extra charge, may be an important upgrade: Besides allowing the color layout to "pop", this greatly improves the longevity of business cards.
