Independent, innovative and ideal for you!

Compass sells titles from a range of medium sized publishers into bookshops across the entire UK and Irish market, as well as the main library suppliers, wholesalers, supermarkets, multiples and all the major bookselling chains. The Compass sales team has a range of contacts which can open doors on the high street, at head office, on campus or in the non-traditional sector as appropriate.

 

We only employ dedicated, salaried representatives who work exclusively for the company and its client publishers. No single list dominates the Compass portfolio to the detriment of others. Our aim is to work with publishers who have a clear focus for their business and want to build a strong, ongoing relationship with us.

 


"The Compass team are first-rate. They are professional, experienced and effective in dealing with the whole range of UK accounts and customers, and we can recommend them whole-heartedly."
Ian McLellan, Managing Director
Arcturus Publishing

"In the last few years, representation through Compass has transformed our sales and profile within the book industry in the UK and beyond. The Compass sales team have been energetic, supportive and imaginative in extending markets, liaising with wholesalers, bookshop chains and independents, and providing informative feedback about marketing trends and the latest developments in the book trade. We very much enjoy and valued our connection with them."
Stephen Stuart-Smith, Managing Director
