Custom packages available. Every author's journey is different. Let's work together to create the perfect publishing experience for you.
The book publishing industry is broken. Authors have three no-good options:
- Traditional Publisher: They pay you a small advance but give you no support where it counts: Writing and marketing. Your success is up to you alone.
- Publishing Services: Publishing services like Scribe Media will help you write, publish, and promote your book. But you're paying for the deliverable, not performance. Like an agency, these services are NOT invested in your success.
- Self-Publish: The cheapest way to become an author is to do it yourself, but you get no writing, publishing, or marketing support.
Here's a better way: Performance Publishing with Damn Gravity.
Our business model is simple: The better you do, the better we do.
We're a full-service publisher, but we're also invested in the performance of your book. We offer the most comprehensive marketing program in the industry to help you maximize sales and profits.
With performance publishing, our financial success is directly tied to yours. And that’s why we prefer it.
We believe in our authors and our ability to help them create world-changing books. We want to be part of your success. True partners.
Our model is simple: The better you do, the better we do.
As the author, you pay for the upfront cost of your book. Damn Gravity keeps its margins to the bare minimum and is rewarded on sales performance.
You keep 100% of your net income until you make your money back. Then Damn Gravity will start earning royalties on a sliding schedule.
We're flexible with our profit-sharing agreements, but here's an example schedule:
- $0 - 55,000 net income — 100% (author keep)
- $55,001 - 75,000— 80%
- $75,001 - 100,000 — 70%
- $100,001 - 250,000 — 60%
- $250,001 - 1,000,000 — 55%
- $1,000,000+ — 52%
Damn Gravity invests more time and energy into our authors than any other publishing service. Therefore, we’re highly selective in who we choose to work with.
We partner with authors with the experience, expertise, and commitment to produce a successful book. All of our books are focused on business, entrepreneurship, technology, and personal development.
Ben Putano is an author, entrepreneur, and founder of Damn Gravity.

Today, as a publisher, Ben works one-on-one with successful business leaders to write and produce impactful books. Ben lives in Chicago with his wife, Mary, and their dog, Avon. When he's not writing, you'll find him playing ultimate frisbee, catching a basketball game, and traveling the world.
