Business Book PublishingBrigantine Media publishes top-quality books, DVDs, and other materials that offer business advice and information. We select projects based on our evaluation of the interest in the marketplace for the topic and title. Our authors are CEOs, business executives, and professional business speakers who have real-world insights to help people in business add to their skill set. Brigantine Media editors and creative team help authors shape their material into well-crafted, interesting books and DVDs. Brigantine Media specializes in selling books through direct, special, and bulk sales. We develop a marketing plan for each book and our experience in marketing translates to longevity and strong sales for many of our books. For example, Crowning the Customer still sells well after its initial publishing 15 years ago. Win the Customer, Not the Argument is in its third printing after its initial publication in 2005. Brigantine Media receives submissions of manuscripts and proposals from authors and agents. For more details on submitting work, see our Submission Guidelines.
