Little, Brown Book Group
Twice winner of the KPMG publisher of the year award, and with a string of top sellers in each season, Little, Brown Book Group has a proven history of success. We pride ourselves on our focused publishing strategy: whether in fiction or non-fiction, we believe we should publish a limited number but a broad range of titles and our aim is to buy the best in any category and publish it with flair and enthusiasm. We focus on getting the most out of each book through detailed attention to every stage of the process, from editorial to design, the marketing and publicity campaigns and the retail strategy with key customers. We do this quite simply because all of us here at Little, Brown love books and love publishing and want to do our very best to achieve the right results for authors and agents, and to keep them informed of progress on a regular basis. As well as concentrating on all aspects of front-list publishing, we nurture our authors’ backlists, frequently re-covering them and taking advantage of every opportunity for promotion. We take enormous pride in our efficient teamwork, and consider our authors to be a crucial part of that team.
