There are publishers who publish booklets. You’ve probably seen booklets in grocery stores, gift shops, and even in bookstores. Publishing your booklet through a publisher is possible, but I would advise against it.
When you hand your manuscript over to someone else, you have given them control over it. They can now make all the decisions regarding the look of the booklet, the price, and how it will be distributed. They may choose not to consult you on any of it. And, you’ll only get a small percentage of the money the booklet makes in the marketplace. The rest will go to the publisher.
Self publishing booklets makes more sense. When you self publish, you are in the drivers seat and you don’t have to consult with anyone else regarding who the booklet will be sold to, how much it will sell for, or how much profit you will make. You don’t have to share the profit with anyone. And self publishing booklets is cheap and easy.
Why make .50cents a copy when you could make the whole $5.00?
To your riches!
