Getting Started

Welcome to Sagging Royalties! We are currently in an invite-only phase. This guide will walk you through the process of getting your press set up on the platform.

At this time, there is no public self-service sign-up form. To create a new publisher account, you must contact the Sagging Royalties administrative staff.

Please email us at info@saggingmeniscus.com with the following information:

Publisher Name: The official name of your press.
Contact Email: The primary email address for administrative notifications.
Website: Your press's website URL.
Admin User: The name and email address of the person who will be the primary administrator.

Once we receive your request, we will:

Create your Publisher entity in the system.
Create your Admin User account.
Send you an invitation email to set your password and log in.

2. Log In

Once you receive your invitation email, click the link to set your password. You can then log in at: https://saggingroyals.com/login

3. Configure Your Press

After logging in, you will be taken to your dashboard. The first steps for a new publisher are usually:

Check Your Publisher Settings

Click on the gear icon and make any necessary updates.

Import Your Catalog

Tell the system about your books. You can upload a CSV of your ISBNs and titles, or enter them manually in the publisher portal.

Set Up Your Sales Channels

4. Upload Your First Sales Report

Navigate to the Sales section to upload a report. We support formats from Ingram, KDP, Asterism, and more. See Uploading Sales for detailed instructions.

Invite Authors

You can invite your authors to the platform so they can view their own sales. Go to the "Users" or "Authors" tab to send invitations.
