An Open Letter from The Cadence Group

Dear Friends,

The Cadence Group was founded to offer services to new and small presses. At the heart of each of our programs is a commitment to share our experience with others. We believe that knowledge should not be a commodity and the more we educate others, the better off the publishing industry will be.

We are a group of dedicated men and women who are passionate about books and who have extensive experience in the book industry. We strive to offer clients and prospective clients guidance and services that will maximize their potential and minimize their costs. Our commitment is to ensure that our clients, big and small, leave with the tools, skills, and knowledge they need to make smart decisions for their current projects and for their future growth.

In order to achieve these goals, The Cadence Group is constantly reviewing and updating the services we provide to ensure that we continue to grow and change with our ever-evolving industry.

We were thrilled to announce the expanded New Shelves Distribution program at this year's Book Expo. We have been even more excited by the warm reception the expanded New Shelves program has received from clients, colleagues, friends and retailers!

In 2008, we founded New Shelves to offer publishers a more effective, less-expensive way to get books in front of book buyers, wholesalers, librarians and specialty chains. Our goal is to combine low-cost warehousing and fulfillment services with an aggressive and focused sales program specifically designed to meet each publisher's individual needs.

The Cadence Group is proud to be working in such a wonderful industry!

Bethany Brown and Amy Collins MacGregor
