About Matt Briel
As Chief Marketing Officer at Lulu, I partner with publishing houses worldwide to solve their most pressing challenges: inventory risk, global distribution complexity, and backlist monetization.Having worked with indie publishers, boutique imprints, and major trade publishers, I understand the delicate balance between tradition and innovation. POD isn\'t about replacing offset printing - it\'s about strategic deployment where it makes the most sense for your catalog.Let\'s explore partnership opportunities if you\'re: A publisher seeking to optimize inventory management • Looking to revitalize your backlist catalog • Expanding into international markets without local inventory • Interested in sustainable publishing practices • Ready to improve margins on mid-list and long-tail titles
