Ingram's Two Rivers Distribution will handle global sales and distribution for Bard Press, effective this September.
Bard Press publishes business and personal development titles, releasing only one book a year and focusing on product development and marketing launches that aim to establish each title as an international bestseller and perennial backlist. Bard Press's bestsellers include The One Thing, with more than two million copies sold worldwide, and The Little Red Book of Selling, published in 2004 and now in its 28th printing. The company is headed by publisher Todd Sattersten, former president of 800-CEO-READ (now called Porchlight Book Company) and co-author of The 100 Best Business Books of All Time.
Sattersten said that Two Rivers Distribution's "work with other business book publishers like Harvard Business Review Press and Plata Publishing puts our titles in very good company."
Two Rivers Distribution director Nick Parker said, "Bard Press is a one-of-a-kind publishing house. Dedicated to the creation of unique, beautiful, and timeless bestsellers, Todd Sattersten has cultivated a very special list of business classics that we are proud to represent globally."
