“Policy Press is delighted to join Digital Comps so that we can offer e-versions of our books on inspection, and for review. This has long been an inefficient aspect of our marketing work and we are receiving increasing requests for ebook versions of our books. Digital Comps will also enable us to expand our promotional activities by giving potential customers access to our books for limited periods on trial. We have found the set-up process straightforward and appreciated the help provided by the Team.”
— Kathryn King, Marketing Manager, Policy Press

“Providing hard copies for course consideration, book reviews, or as examples for potential authors has been inefficient and expensive, especially as electronic revenues encroach on print, print runs shrink, and unit costs increase. Ebook Services’ Digital Comps program is giving us an efficient, cost-effective means to provide electronic copies instantly to interested parties.”
— Timothy Lamkins, SPIE Press Manager, SPIE Press

“DōSustainability has been using Ebook Engine since September 2012. The API was incredibly easy to implement into our website. Engine gives us compete control over how our customers access the ebooks they buy from us and how they see our brand. We can set time limits as well as social DRM, depending on our business model, and make changes to these models if the need arises. All for a fabulous price.”
— Simon Rallison, Managing Director, DōSustainability

“For a lecturer anywhere in the world to be able to review and consider a book for their course as soon as they request it, or immediately after a visit from a rep, is an important development in textbook marketing. In some parts of the world, physical inspection copies go astray regularly which is incredibly frustrating, whereas a digital copy will always reach the customer. We expect that Digital Comps will help us improve both our customer service and the conversion rate into adoptions.”
— Edward Crutchley, Managing Director, WW Norton

“The RSC Books team are responsible for reaching a worldwide audience. Getting inspection copies out to all our customers in a timely and cost effective manner can be challenging so we were looking for an effective solution to this problem. Using Digital Comps has already helped us increase the promotional activity we can do with inspection copies and we are continuing to find more and more uses for the service as time goes on. The staff have always been very quick to respond to queries and always very helpful too which just makes the process that much easier!”

“We were looking for an easy-to-use service to deliver e-Books to our customers -- school districts -- in as painless a way possible, and at a good price. We looked at a number of vendors, and eBook Services fit the bill. They were already working with libraries, so it wasn't a huge leap to include schools, and their web-based delivery system made it easy, even for a smaller publisher like ourselves, to set up a collection and start selling. We're pleased with how it's going so far, and we're looking forward to building on our early success.”
— Tyson Brown, Director of New Products and Services, National Science Teachers Association

“We are excited to be joining Ebook Services' Digital Comps program. We've been exploring ways to get examination copies out to faculty quickly, easily, and inexpensively; this program wins on all counts. Through Ebook Services Inspection Copy portal, Yale University Press plans to provide digital examination copies to instructors anywhere in the world easily, quickly and with controlled distribution. The possibilities of providing the e-book samples to a global audience, decreasing the number of hard copies sent, increasing our contacts and understanding their needs, all while maintaining control of our files, are very attractive.”
— Debra Marr Bozzi, Educational Marketing Manager, and Karen Stickler, Academic Discipline Marketer, Yale University Press

“All publishers know how tricky it is to get good reviews, and most of the time, sending review copies of new titles spontaneously is not really cost-effective: production cost + postage + no guarantee to get any review or ever see our book again. Thanks to Digital Comps, we can now keep control of the process in terms of DRM, in terms of costs, in terms of timescale. Digital Comps is a very user-friendly interface, easy to use by publishers and reviewers alike. This is definitely the way to go in the future.”
— Constance Govindin, Publicity and Digital Content Manager, Karnac Books

We're now able to reach a much wider audience of academics around the world, at a fraction of the cost of sending hard copies of our books, virtually instantly and without the worries of physical deliveries going astray. The comps interface is intuitive and easy to use - both for the academics making requests and from our administrative point of view - and the staff at EBC are always responsive and a pleasure to work with. Digital Comps are now an integral part of Manson Publishing's digital strategy.”
