Tate Publishing & Impact Magazine

Recently we were honored to be asked to have a profile in a local magazine that one of the ministries we support puts out quarterly.  The magazine is Impact OKC and is from Youth For Christ.  They feature businesses in our state that have a passion for building the Kingdom and reaching others for Christ.  As many of you know at Tate Publishing we not only the industry leader for authors in publishing, marketing, distribution and publicity, but we have had a desire from day one to make this world a better place and reach lives with God's Word.  As we are approaching Thanksgiving I can't help but think of how grateful we are for what God has blessed us with and allows us to do each day.  Serving authors is for us - a life changing and world altering call.  Each author and every book is an opportunity to see our world changed one reader at a time.  From all of us at Tate Publishing and our family we would like to thank each of you for supporting us, helping us build the Kingdom and choosing us to deliver your books to the world.    We are truly blessed and have been in such need for our Lord's saving grace, that my family and I simply can't see running a business or living our lives in any way other than to deliver what our competitors can't and take God's Word to the World.  We are praying that your Thanksgiving will be one blessed beyond measure and as always if you ever need anything don't hesitate to contact us at anytime.  Here is a link to the magazine article, hope you all enjoy and have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

In Him,

Tate Publishing Makes Audio Book Available To All

Good afternoon, it is a beautiful day at our offices this morning and I just left one of our printing facilities and couldn't wait to write about some exciting things taking place at Tate Publishing.  

This morning I received a call from our Director of Marketing, Mark Mingle.  Mark is currently in New York City and was meeting with our buyer in the Large Press Division at Barnes& Noble.  At the meeting the buyer was not only very interested and picking up the titles being presented for distribution, but she was very interested in one of the features that accompany most Tate Publishing titles.  The feature is what we refer to as eLive!  eLive is basically a total digital package that comes with a Tate Published title.  

Whenever a customer buys a Tate Published book, if it has an eLive logo on the cover, they have just purchased the complete digital entertainment package.  There is a download code in the back of the book that gives the buyer access to a free download of the e-book and audiobook from any computer.  The value this adds to a book is huge and the investment that Tate Publishing makes in our titles to provide these types of benefits is unparalleled.  Our buyer even mentioned that she had never heard of or seen a publisher every do this and loved it.  

This is one more way that Tate Publishing has always set ourselves apart from the competition.  For those of you who follow my blog you know that Tate Publishing is a company born to provide services, product, and distribution to authors, buyers and distributors that can't be found or compared to anywhere else.  eLive is a perfect example of the Tate difference.

Perhaps the biggest confirmation of how successful the eLive feature has been comes from my own house.  I have a four year old daughter at home who tests all of our children's books.  The second daddy brings home a new book, she goes straight to the computer downloads the audio book version and follows along.  If she loves it we have a winner on our hands.

I couldn't be more proud of what we are accomplishing every day at Tate Publishing and the incredible success our authors and books are experiencing.  We will continue to push ourselves to the next level of service and product offerings everyday, and remember next time you visit your local bookstore to make sure your purchase is a Tate Publishing book with the eLive logo on the cover.  The digital entertainment package is sure to not disappoint.

Have a blessed day and let me know if you have any questions!

God Bless,

Ryan Tate
