Despite a recession and turmoil in the publishing industry, Greenleaf Book Group celebrated its ninth bestseller this year. The company attributes its success to an innovative author-centric model, which allows authors to retain their rights while giving them a higher royalty structure, competitive distribution, and strong marketing support. Says Clint Greenleaf, CEO of Greenleaf Book Group, "We offer our authors the quality, distribution power, and experience of a major publisher and the ownership and financial advantages of self-publishing." Greenleaf's innovative model appeals to authors and experts looking to use the credibility of a book to build their brand. As a result, Greenleaf has attracted many notable names, including John Gray, Daymond John, and Kanye West.
The Inc. 5000 list serves as an example of the impact private companies have on the economy. The list highlights the fastest-growing private companies, those firms responsible for much of the job and revenue growth that positively affects the market today.
