Frankfurt Book Fair for Self Publishing Writers

In spite of the premium costs involved with exhibiting, independent, self-published, and alternatively published authors continue to display their books in increasing numbers. The practice of creating co-op stands is an expanding phenomenon, and participating in these collective booths continues to offer unprecedented access to the world’s most important publishing events.
In 2008, Frankfurt Fair director Jurgen Boos noted the 60th Fair rented out 1.4% more space, with primary growth from the English-speaking countries.
 

 

 

Foreign rights sales and distribution beyond the shores of America take center stage in Frankfurt, Germany, home to the Frankfurt International Book Fair, taking place annually every October.Each year, nearly 10,000 publishing professional and industry insiders converge on this event, which hosts over 50% more international publishers than Book Expo of America.

Co-Op bookshelf displays allow you to secure premium, “face out” exposure in a high traffic area for a fraction of what it would cost to attend personally. Your book will receive valuable, face-out exposure on an exclusive shelf with 4 other Outskirts Press titles and a representative will be on-hand to personally answer questions about your book. Outskirts Press will provide the necessary copies of the book and all the necessary contact information for both the author and publisher, so interested parties can make further contact, during or after the fair. All inquiries Outskirts Press receives about your book will be forwarded directly to you for personal follow-up.

Space is limited and is available in limited quantities on a first-come, first served basis. Save 25% on 4 major book events throughout the year (London, BEA, Beijing, Frankfurt) with our Global Book Tour marketing package.
