Multi-Marketing Anthology

MULTI-MARKETING ANTHOLOGY 

The Multi-Marketing Anthology allows both local and international poets and short story writers, whether published or undiscovered, the opportunity to get their work seen by a global audience at a reduced publishing rate than you would pay for publishing your own full-length book, and earn royalties from their work.Some poets and short story writers are raw talents with a few pages of work, which is not enough to put together a full-length book or strapped on cash and unable to be published as it exceeds their budget. This allows them the opportunity to get their work published along with others in a compilation at a reduced rate of publishing (as all authors are pooling their funds together to make up the whole amount by each paying for their own equal portion) and earn an equal portion of the royalties from an international viewing audience who will purchase the book, so long as all authors play their part in marketing it as well.

TO ENTER:

  • You may submit a minimum of 2 poems and a maximum of 10 poems
  • You may submit a minimum of 1 short story and a maximum of 5 short stories (no longer than 12 pages each)
  • Along with your submission, you must also send the following items in your email:

> A recent clear photo of yourself

> A short author bio of yourself

> Your social media handles where people can find you online

> Your mobile number

> The Store Code of your nearest PEP Store (you can find this by typing in www.paxi.co.za > PAXI Points > Search bar (type in the address of your nearest PEP Store)

CLOSING DATE FOR SUBMISSIONS: 01 March 2025

  • There is no entry fee to submit your work for approval
  • ONLY IF YOUR CONTENT IS APPROVED by the judging panel via email, you will pay R850 as your portion of the publication fee and send through a Proof Of Payment along with your banking details for your nominated bank account where you would prefer royalties to be transferred into once sales are made. 
  • All poetry and short story submissions must be sent as a Microsoft Word attachment (NO other format will be acceptable) to info@multimarketing.co.za BEFORE the deadline.
  • If the poems or short stories have been previously published, ensure you make a note of that in your submission and that you have the rights to republish the work with us.
  • You may submit poems and a short stories together, if you wish.
  • The amount varies each year as page count and ink used as well as time spent and the inflation rate is different from one year to another, so as such, each year may reflect a different amount than the year before.

IMPORTANT: After your receive your copy, it is just as much your duty to market the book as available on mmstore.co.za and amazon.com as much as it is the duty of Multi-Marketing to do the same. Through combined efforts, the book will sell. It is not the sole duty of Multi-Marketing to market your book. 

Multi-Marketing will offer you opportunities to market the Anthology on our social media platforms such as reaching out to arrange a LIVE interview on either our TikTok, Instagram or Facebook platforms and physical gigs to appear and sign copies for potential customers. 

After the payout threshold has been reached (thanks to a collective marketing effort by Multi-Marketing AND the authors involved), only then can royalties be paid out in an equal sum to all the authors involved as each contributed an equal amount to have it published.

REMEMBER: No Sales=No Royalties
