Frankfurt Book Fair Happenings

With The Frankfurt Book Fair just around the corner, we wanted to take this opportunity to get excited about all the great things PubMatch has going on at Frankfurt this year! Rights Catalogs Done Easy: Even before you get onsite in Frankfurt, you'll probably be thinking about the rights catalogs you'll need to bring and the follow up you'll have to do. Well, we've been thinking the same way, so we've been working hard to revamp our catalog generation tool! Premium PubMatch members can make as many catalogs as they want right from their PubMatch profile, and now they can merge catalogs together to create master catalogs which keep the formatting of the already created catalogs and provides you with an index and simple cover image enhancer. If you want to continue making smaller catalogs, we've got you covered there too. When you create a simple catalog on PubMatch, you have access to the catalog as a PDF to print, an Excel Spreadsheet to act as a simple list and we've revamped the Word Document format of the catalog so you can customize it yourself even further. You'll also have access to the HTML version of the catalog which is great for follow up after those busy Frankfurt Meetings. Network Before, During and After! Hundreds of PubMatch members will be attending Frankfurt, and you can see them all on our Frankfurt Book Fair sub-network. Browse the sub-network to set up meetings before you get on site, or use your rare downtime at the fair to fill up any empty meeting slots you might have! Rights@PubMatch is Here! The Frankfurt Book Fair will be the first major international book fair during which Rights@PubMatch will be live! That means if you're negotiating on some front list titles, you can also sell backlist titles straight from your PubMatch profile with little additional work (just some simple set up). Rights@PubMatch is a fully transactional rights selling tool, featuring a fully executed contract, and backed by the experts at Copyright Clearance Center. See us in the Business Club! We are very excited to be a part of an innovative panel discussion called Care and Feeding of Your Aliens: Best practices for publishers partnering with innovative technology organizations, held in the Frankfurt Business Club, hall 4.2 in room DIMENSION on October 9 from 2-3. During the panel, our Director of Product Development, Seth Dellon, will give an overview of the entire PubMatch system and how it can help publishers make their rights business even more effective. We invite you to join and ask Seth any questions you might have! PubMatch Bookshelf Turns Two: At Frankfurt, we'll also be giving out more information about the sophomore appearance of The PubMatch Bookshelf, a collective and official exhibit of The London Book Fair. The PubMatch Bookshelf is a great way to promote books with available rights to the active rights buying audience at the London Book Fair in 2015! Global Rights Report: Our partners at Publishers Weekly have been working diligently behind the scenes for the launch of the PW Global Rights Report, and we are very excited to be a part of it, along with our UK-based friends, IPR License. The Global Rights Report is an exciting bi-weekly newsletter, with content from PW's stable of fantastic reporters, that covers all the important goings on in the arena of rights, from major deals, to book fair news and so much more. Agents, publishers, authors and distributors are among the 90 thousand that receive each issue. There are loads of ways to get involved, like including your book as a Featured Title in the newsletter (which you can do here). Learn more by emailing [email protected]. You can learn more about all of this and get an in depth demo or explanation about all of PubMatch's tools at Hall 8.0, Stand R30.
