Chris Day founded Filament Publishing in 2000 with the view of helping authors in the area of training and personal development to successfully publish their works in such a way as to get a just reward for all the time and effort they put in.
Since then, this vision has expanded to cover other non fiction niche markets in which authors are encouraged to develop and sell to their own specialist interest community on line.
He believes that to be successful, authors have to take ownership of their work, and develop their own market place using every opportunity to promote themselves and their work. As the Chinese proverb goes “Man wait on side of hill with mouth open for a long time, waiting for roast duck to fly in”. In other words, if it is to be, it's up to me!
Chris has been a part of the direct sales industry for many years during which he was in charge of field communications for Encyclopaedia Britannica in the UK and Ireland . He is a supplier member of the Direct Selling Association and writes a monthly column about alternative business opportunities in Making Money Magazine.
In addition to his publishing interests, Chris also runs a television production and new media company which produces DVD products for clients, and also build e-commerce websites.
