I love it when a customer makes it big on the World stage, especially when the Intertype team have helped them achieve it.
A recipe book Intertype printed for Culinaire Cooking School recently picked up two national “Gourmand” awards and the book has gone on to be shortlisted in two categories in the Global Gourmand Awards.

If cooking is your thing then it’s worth your while to hone your skills or just learn some of the basics at Culinaire’s cooking school.
Book awards serve as powerful marketing tools in the literary world, significantly impacting book sales. Winning prestigious awards such as the Pulitzer Prize, Man Booker Prize, or National Book Award not only enhances a book’s reputation but also amplifies its visibility to a wider audience.
Firstly, winning an award provides instant credibility and validation for the author and their work, increasing reader trust and interest. This validation often leads to heightened media attention, including press coverage, interviews, and features, which further boosts the book’s exposure.
Moreover, bookstores prominently display award-winning books, attracting potential buyers browsing for quality reads. Libraries and book clubs also prioritize award-winning titles, driving additional sales and circulation.
Additionally, awards create a buzz within literary circles, sparking discussions and recommendations among readers, leading to word-of-mouth promotion. Social media amplifies this effect, with readers sharing their excitement and recommendations, ultimately leading to increased sales.
Overall, book awards act as influential endorsements, propelling books into the spotlight and significantly contributing to their commercial success.
