Author Consignment Preliminary Application Form
Please read the following before filling out the form.
Thank you for contacting us regarding author consignment. We have always supported local and self-published authors and the policies below were created to enable us both to have the most successful experience. We hope you can understand that we are not able to stock books published by CreateSpace/Amazon as they are a direct competitor of The Atlas Collective. Please use the button below to submit the $5 stocking fee. In the event that we are not able to stock your book, the fee will be returned.
For the $5 stocking fee, we will hold up to three copies of the book in our store (see sections 1 and 2 for full details on sales and stocking). Sales will be shared between the Author and the Atlas Collective according to our payment policy (see Section 3).
1. STOCKING FEE: The Atlas Collective charges a one-time stocking fee of $5 per title due upon submission of this form. Books must have an ISBN and a spine with the Author’s name and book title. Up to three (3) copies per book will be considered for the initial consignment period.
2. DURATION: Initial consignment period is for 90 days. After 90 days the Author and The Atlas Collective may elect to extend the consignment contract for subsequent periods of 90 days. The Atlas Collective will contact the Author at the end of the consignment period to pick up unsold books. These must be picked up within seven days or will be donated.
3. PAYMENT: The Author will receive 60% of the sale proceeds and The Atlas Collective will receive 40% of the proceeds. Payment to the Author will be made by the twelfth of each month unless the total consignment payment is less than $20.00, in which case the amount will rollover to the following month’s payment.
4. PRICING: Prices for consigned books will be determined by The Atlas Collective based on the suggested retail price provided by the Author. Books will be priced comparably to similar titles.
5. MARKETING: As part of this consignment agreement, the Author agrees to list the Atlas Collective (@atlascollectiveqc on social media) as a retail location on their promotional material. The Atlas Collective may elect to share promotional social media provided by the Author. The Atlas Collective is not responsible for the creation of any marketing for the author.
6. DISCLOSURE: The Atlas Collective will do everything within its control to maintain the integrity of the books consigned and secure them during the consignment period. The Atlas Collective is not responsible for theft, loss, or damage to books consigned.
