Hybrid publishing. In my opinion, it's sort of the sweet spot. This option is an option that most people don't even know about. Okay? And in my opinion, it's probably one of the best options. If you are a business owner that likes autonomy, it's something in between self publishing and traditional publishing. One you retain creative control, you retain most of your rights, and you retain significant margins opposed to traditional publishing. Now, the advantage is that they provide professional editing, design and production. They also handle distribution. They get you into bookstores, into airports, bulk orders, all that stuff. They also act as a true publishing partner. Most entrepreneurs, creators, and experts I have found that have used the hybrid approach are really happy. I've heard a lot of glowing reviews of the process, and they feel like it's one of the smartest moves they've ever made.
