If your Christmas plans include a family photo book, calendar or other published item from one of the online publishing platforms, you may want to get those projects moving now. First, you’ll want to factor in the time to order and receive a “proof” copy of your publication to make sure every thing is just right before you make your big order. Second, if you are making a big order – 25 or more copies – you’re cruising for disaster if you wait until the last minute to place it.

To add a bit of incentive, Blurb is offering a 15% discount for orders of 10 or more IF the order is placed by October 30th. Lulu has a 25% discount on calendars and photobooks until October 11th.

Check out your favorite publishing and photo gifts platforms and see if they’re offering any “early bird specials” for your Christmas present projects.
