Morgan James Publishing was founded in 2003
By David L. Hancock, a mortgage banker who had written a book and been less than thrilled with the conventional book publishing process. Hancock, with his bride, Susan, named the new company after their two children, daughter Morgan Renee and son Ethan James, has grown his business to over 500 titles to its credit in five and a half short years, and counts many well-known authors in his author base, including Jack Hatfield, Jay Conrad Levinson, Rick Frishman, Mark Victor Hansen, Dr. Robert Anthony, Tony Alessandra and Joe Vitale. The company focuses on four book categories: Business, Self-Help, Inspirational and Health.

Building a New Model
As he was building the plan for his new business, Hancock had a long-term strategy to associate his business with the Ingram Book Group to add credibility to his authors and take advantage of Ingram’s significant distribution channel. He also knew that he would need to take advantage of print to order strategies in order not to become entrenched in the traditional publishing model requiring long-run offset printing for the manufacturing of all of his titles. As he looked for a manufacturing partner, he kept both of those objectives top of mind.
