Bk Author Co Op Sales Reports Rights Responsibilities
Berrett-Koehler authors have established their own cooperative to collaborate, share marketing tips, and exchange ideas. Services include training, mentoring, and an annual retreat. As a new BK author, your first year of membership is paid by Berrett-Koehler Publishers.  You can contact the BK Author's Co-op on this link. Berrett-Koehler produces monthly online sales history reports that are available through a secure login for every BK author. Click the button above to login and access your BK Author Sales Report. Our goal is to treat each of our stakeholder groups as business partners. We are striving to create more fair, open, collaborative, and egalitarian relationships with each group than is typically the case. This Bill of Rights emphasizes that at BK, publishing is a partnership in which both sides work together and contribute to the outcome.
Change Toolkit Mktng Vids Pub Agreement
The Change Toolkit is a feature of the Berrett-Koehler magazine which aims to help every expert, author, and change agent better accomplish their mission.  It contains tools to make you better at writing, marketing, messaging, and social media. In June of 2009, the BK Author Cooperative sponsored a Marketing Workshop in Washington D.C. in association with Berrett-Koehler Publishers and the American Society for Training & Development (ASTD). These videos are now available for sale and download through the Berrett-Koehler and ASTD websites. We pride ourselves at being transparent in our business arrangements.
