<p>Will the book be given as marketing collateral? Should it be a
print book at all? How many projected copies will be distributed?
Is it for profit, or for marketing collateral? Is it just a vanity
book? Could it be published under the aegis of topical matter
associated with a variety of tech publishing houses, like
O'Reilley? Has the material already been gathered and edited? Is
it tied to one product line-- and if so, what's the lifecycle of
that product? <br>
</p>
<p>Those are my additional questions, having seen this done before
by a wide variety of publishers and intended uses.</p>

<p>Susan. Before you can make those kind of decisions, you should
analyze what exactly the purpose and intended readership is for
the book, and what kind of distribution would best reach them?</p>
<p>Please share that kind of information and whatever else you
know of your client's thinking, to help us provide advice.</p>

<div dir="ltr">Hi Folks - Not sure if I"m posting this to the
right list - pls LMK if not. I've been asked to scope out
costs for different options in publishing a b2b book for a
tech vendor, ie. whether to self publish or work with a small
publishing house.
<div>Anyone have any experience/advice on where to start? </div>
