AuthorHouse Launches Rapid ReleaseSM Expedited Service

Company Now Offers 30-Day Turnaround; Customer Satisfaction Soars 

Bloomington, Ind. -- AuthorHouse, the premier publishing house for emerging authors and new voices in literature, recently unveiled a new expedited book production service that is the first of its kind in the publishing industry.

The Rapid Release program is the answer for authors looking to publish their books quickly and who want to retain creative control throughout the process. The program substantially reduces the timeline between manuscript submission and finished product – without sacrificing quality or control — and features high-touch, personalized service along with a solid, money-back guarantee. Rapid Release has already proven itself successful in terms of customer satisfaction, said Bryan Smith, president and CEO of AuthorHouse.

“Since we have streamlined our process, customer approval ratings have climbed to 96 percent over the past few months,” Smith said. “Authors on a tight deadline can now have a custom designed book
in-hand in 30 days which is unheard of in the publishing industry.”

"The Rapid Release program is available to authors who purchase a standard paperback publishing package and is the latest offering in an ongoing effort by AuthorHouse to ensure clients and their books receive every opportunity to remain at the forefront of the publishing industry", said Dave McCauley, AuthorHouse vice president.

“We've spent a lot of time in the past nine months perfecting our publishing process to be able to offer a custom book in 30 days,” he said. “Our authors have more control over the look and timeline of their books than ever before and they reap the benefits of a professionally published book that is ready for market in less than half the time of other published books.”
