Appeal to new and old students
Custom histories are a great way to engage creatively with prospective pupils and boost student pride. Earlier this year we published a small, hardback history for St Anthony’s School, a prep school in Hampstead, London. has been a key element in building the school’s fledgling Old Boys Association.
‘Very proud to have been able to contribute to the book. It’s been wonderful to understand the history and know how the school progressed through the nineties and noughties.’
– Andy Joseph, St Anthony’s School alumnus
Make the publication even more special
We can also create limited editions, such as slipcases and other luxury editions for VIPs.
For , we created two editions, a hardback and a paperback version of their history – each with a different cover. The striking grey hardback was for parents and staff and the purple paperback was given to pupils. Each cover was embossed with the school logo in a modern, fresh design.
‘We very much enjoyed working with Profile Editions and are delighted with the final product.’
– Richard Cairns, Brighton College Headmaster
Offset the cost of making your book
We offer a pre-order promotion tailored to each client, which promotes the book to your alumni prior to publication and helps you sell the book. The incentive to purchase is two-fold: alumni can pre-order at a discounted price and get their name listed in the book.
We fit our marketing schedule around your alumni mailings and magazine correspondence and manage all aspects of the customer service, marketing, sales and distribution. In these mailings we often encourage alumni to share reminiscences, anecdotes and archive photography.
Stories can be told in many formats, and we publish both illustrated and non-illustrated books. We all have a story to tell and we would love to hear yours.
