Heritage Makers- who we are, what we do, and how we do it?
Heritage Makers is storybooking. Our online publishing process empowers people to capture and preserve their precious memories in beautiful, hardbound storybooks. Our heritage studio publishing software allows users to combine their photographs, and the stories behind them, into digital files that are then printed and bound in a state-of-the-art publishing system. Now it is simple and fun for anyone to turn their priceless memories into inexpensive, custom-made storybooks. What story will you publish today?

Heritage Makers storybooks preserve and celebrate the important relationships and events of our lives. Make your stories live by creating and sharing heirloom-quality books and other heritage enriching projects. We invite you to join us as a member of the heritage Makers online community of storybookers.

Where we came from:
"I wanted my children to know one of the greatest men I've ever known -- my grandfather" - Candy May

Our story begins with a young mother who was concerned that her children might not get to know her hero- her grandfather. Candy May's interview with her grandfather became the substance of a simple, photocopied, spiral-bound booklet with only a couple of old photographs and some drawings- the first storybook. Eventually, she had the booklet hard-bound, and it became her children's favorite bedtime story.

Candy thought that surely there were others who would like to preserve and share their heroes and stories in this way as well. And the vision for a business was born. Candy's mother, Sharon Murdoch, shared her passion for story, and that shared passion became a dream to get a family storybook in every home. Together they launched the storybooking movement!

The public response to their movement was tremendous! Sharon sought marketing advice from direct selling expert, Doug Cloward, who quickly recognized its potential as a home -based business that could help families strengthen and share their heritage. The key would be the development of a simple, highly-duplicatable, digital creative publishing technology. Doug, Sharon and Candy combined their ideas, resources and experience. They were joined bye a handful of others who recognized the timeliness of the venture. Together, they became the business team of the world's first storybooking business - Heritage Makers.
