An increasing number of experts are turning to crowd funding to raise money to finance their next book, pre-launch books ready for release, build fan networks and test the commercial potential of a new book. In fact, there are a growing number of crowd funding platforms dedicated specifically to book publishing including Inkshares and Unbound.
ABOUT UNBOUND:
Unbound's business is very straightforward: the author pitches an idea and if enough readers support it, the book goes ahead. Unbound is both a funding platform and a publisher, fulfilling all the normal publishing functions but also splitting a book's net profit 50/50 with the author.

Inshares' business model is similar to Unbound; however, Inshares shares 50% on sales on printed books and 70% of sales on ebooks. For more information please visit https://www.inkshares.com/
