Services for Publishers

Porchlight works with book publishers in a variety of ways to support and promote their books. With a dedicated customer service team to manage complex bulk orders, an author services team that helps set sales strategy and address each book’s unique needs, and an editorial and marketing team to feature books online, the team at Porchlight can help at each stage of a book’s lifecycle.

Warming, welcoming and illuminating….the team at Porchlight reflects the very best characteristics of their new brand name. Bulk sales have never been easier, and their new enhanced website explains clearly all the ways these sales can be made. Books where they need to be, when they need to be there…Porchlight shines brightly.

Personalized Customer Service

We understand that every order is unique, and often needs the flexibility that only a dedicated personal representative can provide.

Bestseller Reporting

We report all book sales run through Porchlight Book Company to The New York Times and NPD BookScan.

Book Customization

Whether it’s part of training someone for a job, an add-on at a conference, or a holiday gift, we can customize books to make a lasting impression.

Bulk Book Pricing

We offer competitive discounts on bulk book orders, and an array of options for how to process them.

Custom Checkout

Our one-page order platform provides a quick and easy way to execute your pre-order campaign, book promotion, book club, or corporate gifting program.

Delivery Logistics

We excel at managing high-touch, large quantity orders on tight, specific timelines—including international shipments.

Mass Book Mailing

We excel at moving a lot of books at once, even if that means sending them individually to many hundreds or even thousands of different addresses.

Preorder Campaigns

We offer a wide variety of services to help authors and publishers capture preorders, and accurately report the sales when they ship.

Warehousing & Consignment

We have a robust retail platform, customer service team, and warehouse operation ready to be leveraged by those on less traditional publishing platforms.

Editorial Coverage

We not only move books, we immerse ourselves in them, attempting to understand the ideas and intent of the authors, and help spread those we believe in.

Advertising & Giveaways

We offer easy and effective advertising options for publishers and authors to get their books in front of, and literally in the hands of, avid readers.
