About This Book

Making a great board game and pitching it to publishers are two completely different things.

If you've got a game that you want to share with the world but don't know what to do next, this book will help you navigate through exactly what steps to take.

You'll discover:

  • How to find the right publisher


  • Exactly what publishers are looking for


  • How to create a sell sheet that will actually sell your game


  • How to negotiate the best deal and get paid more for your game


  • What to look out for in contracts to make sure you don't get exploited


You'll learn from Joe's experiences as a full-time board game designer and instructor, along with tips and stories from a dozen other published designers, plus the exact things that publishers want. Direct from 16 established publishers.
