The Publishing Business Group is an alliance of independent publishing consultants in the San Francisco Bay Area. Our group includes experts in editing, design, market research, circulation, advertising sales, online advertising sales, strategic planning, and business management. We often work together on projects where our individual skills combine to provide you with a complete solution to your needs. Each of us is also available independently from the others.

Publishing Business Group consultants work from home offices (instead of a business office) so that we can charge lower consulting fees. However, to protect the privacy of our families, we do not post our home addresses or telephone numbers on the Internet. We are not staffed up to handle your phone calls, so please contact us by email instead.
