Exhibit and Foreign Rights Information
Our company is traveling the world and attending all the major global book shows to 1) help publishers and authors sell their foreign language rights and 2) to find partners, resellers, and distributors for our clients as well. We have had incredible success thus far with selling both print rights and ebook rights for our clients.
The way this works is that we put your book(s) into our Rights Catalog that we take to the following shows, hand out to interested buyers, and also place on our searchable online catalog for that show for one year. These pictures are from our Chinese exhibition at the Beijing International Book Fair.
Here are some pictures, some video, and a show catalog from the London Book Fair and catalogs from the other book fairs we attend.

Contract Information
We work a bit differently than other agents. We prefer to cover our administrative expenses and we do not take a percentage if we sell the rights. We will connect you directly to the buyer and help with the negotiations to the degree that you need us to, but we will not take a percentage. Also, we do not need the physical book for the shows, we present a professional “Rights Catalog” at the show and the buyers work through the catalog to request books that they are interested in.
You will have full control over the content used for display of each title in our catalog.
