1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 Greg Ioannou was using the book crowdfunding platform PubSlush to help fund books at&amp;nbsp;Iguana Books, his hybrid publishing company, until it closed in 2015. He reimagined the platform as PubLaunch with both crowdfunding and a marketplace to not only serve Iguana Books but the larger author-publisher community. Listen and learn about hybrid publishing, how to recruit a quality publishing team, and what it takes to crowdfund a book. Other PubLaunch features, including the supplier marketplace, will be launched later in 2018. You'll hear about that, too, and some surprising facts they discovered when putting editors through a qualification test. Meantime, check out their learning center, especially if you are are considering crowdfunding your book. Not considering crowdfunding? Maybe you should.
