Launch types

Built for the way authors actually launch.

Kickstarter and crowdfunding

Hundreds of backer packages, each with its own mix of hardbacks, paperbacks, swag and add-ons. We build the pick list from your reward tiers, assemble every kit, and ship the whole campaign in one push.

Special editions and signed copies

Sprayed edges, foil, dust jackets and signed tip-ins need careful handling. We pack to protect corners and edges, and we ship signing batches to you and back when you need them.

Direct sales store

Selling from your own site? Connect your store and we pick, pack and ship each order as it comes in, with tracking sent back to the customer.

Subscriptions and serials

Monthly letters, chapter drops and reader boxes ship on a fixed calendar. We hold your inventory and run the schedule so each mailing goes out on time.

How it works

Four steps from print run to shipped.

  1. Tell us about the project

    Send the form with your book, your launch type and rough quantities. If the project appears to be a fit, we contact you to schedule a conversation.

  2. Ship your inventory to us

    Have your printer or supplier send everything to our Texas warehouse. Each shipment is checked in, counted and logged.

  3. We assemble the packages

    You send the order list or reward tiers. We build the kits, add inserts and collectibles, and pack for safe transit.

  4. Orders go out

    We ship by the best carrier for each destination, domestic or international, and send tracking back to you.

Why us

A 3PL ships boxes. We know what readers want and experience.

We run fulfillment knowing the package carries a reader or viewer relationship, not just a SKU. Fulfillment for Authors is the author-focused side of Creator Unleashed, a product development and fulfillment company that has shipped 500,000 orders for creators.

About

Built by a creator who needed it first.

Creator Unleashed is a product development and fulfillment suite for creators, by creators.

Founded by bestselling author and multi-seven-figure entrepreneur David Viergutz, Creator Unleashed was developed using the same tools and systems he used to turn his audience into a multi-million dollar product line — in less than a few months.

His products needed sourcing, production, warehousing, packaging, shipping and customer operations. So he built all of it. From suppliers to the warehouse to the systems that move an order from attention to doorstep.

Creator Unleashed now puts that same infrastructure behind other creators. The company exists because creators should not have to become warehouse and logistics operators to launch a meaningful physical product.

Creator Unleashed exists to enrich the relationship between creator and customer, so they can do what they do best — create.
