The Adult Coloring Book Treasury, If you love to color you've probably heard of it. It's the fattest coloring book on the coloring book market. Sold AT COST! I'm part of both books!

It's crazy because we were able to collaborate and do the WHOLE thing online! How did we pull it off??

• We had two leaders who were in charge of assembling, and making the book come to life.
• We set up a facebook group for everything
• We worked on our coloring book pages
• We submitted it through an online thing, Which our "leader" made to check for errors.
• We would often vote on certain guidelines, Like who is allowed to post what, What quality we expect, etc.

And It surprisingly worked out; We got this gorgeous book in our hands. A large book. Sold at the lowest price possible.
Our first one was good too, But to be honest, I feel that the second one is much better quality overall.

Adult Coloring Book Treasury: 110 illustrations from 55 artists

Adult Coloring Book Treasury 2: 130 Illustrations from 70 Artists

Why are we doing this when no one makes a profit?

NO one gets paid, That is why we keep it at the lowest price. Instead, we get EXPOSURE! Our coloring pages are in there, With our names on the margins. That way people can "sample" our work and hopefully purchase our book later. So far I feel like it's paid off and to a certain degree, I feel like my sales have gone up as a result.

Here is a flip through video of our book, The picture that is mine is the "eye." pattern thing.

What About Advertising & Marketing?

We are all required to advertise a little bit; it's part of the "fee" of being in the book.
We are required to,

• Buy a copy of the book.
• Color at least 2 pages (I"m trying to color the whole thing)
• Advertise the book in coloring book groups,

I feel like because so many people are involved it's somewhat easy for us to get sales. Our best seller rank on the second one is currently at 1,400. It's exciting.

Tips if you decide to do a compilation book,

• Have a leader, Who is hard working, Picky and experienced. We wouldn't have been successful without the help of Jason.
  His attention to detail is incredible, and we have a gorgeous Treasury because of it.

• Be open with your vision. Many people had many different ideas on how a big project like that should be tackled. Sometimes things didn't happen the way I wanted. Like in the second one, I was allowed only 1 page in the treasury, not 2, and The book is arranged in alphabetical order, I would prefer it based on when we submitted the artwork.

But the point is, Not everyone will get everything that they want, And that's okay.
