Publisher Profile: Hay House

Reid Tracy, Publisher/CEO

How long has Hay House been around, and was there a particular title that launched the press? 

Hay House was started in 1987 with five books and five audio tapes. You Can Heal Your Life by Louise Hay was the main title and remains one of our bestselling titles to this day.

How do you balance publishing books as well as other materials such as dvds and calendars? 

The majority of the publishing program is around books, however we do other supplementary material which helps readers expand their experience with the ideas expressed in the books.

Why do you think You Can Heal Your Life and some of your other long-time bestselling titles have been so successful?  

They help people improve the quality of their lives. Once people’s lives are improved they tell their friends about the books when they need help in their lives so the books continue to sell for many years.

How long has Hay House Radio been airing, and what are some of your favorite shows? 

Hay House radio has been on the air for five years. My favorite shows are Dr. Wayne Dyer, Cheryl Richardson, and Caroline Myss.

Are there one or two titles that you are particularly excited to see in accessible formats? 

 We are excited to have many of our titles available in accessible formats so more people’s lives can be changed for the better from the books.
