How Self-Publishing Works with Packages from an Award-Winning Self-Publisher:
Choose A Self-Publishing Services Package:
Select one of our self-publishing packages. The packages include everything you need to get published. Book publishing services include editing, book cover design, interior layout, ISBN assignment, barcode generation, book printing, marketing and more.
Sell Your Book to Consumers:
As part of all our self-publishing packages, customers will be able to order your book through our distribution network, including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Powell’s, Books-A-Million, Ingram and Baker & Taylor. Our distribution reaches approximately 30,000 retailers, booksellers and wholesalers in 100 countries.
We’ll Handle the Printing & Order Fulfillment:
Copies of your book will be printed and delivered directly to customers on your behalf. For instance, if a number of copies are sold on Amazon on a specific day, we’ll print those copies on-demand and fulfill those orders for you. As an option, you’ll also be able to order author copies and have them shipped right to your door. This is a handy feature if you have in-person events booked or you’d like to sell copies on your own website.
Make Money On Each Book Sale:
You’ll earn royalties on all copies sold through distribution. We issue royalty statements and checks to our authors each quarter. Obviously, we can’t guarantee a certain level of book sales for your book (because each book is different), but you should know that we have helped produce many self-published Amazon bestsellers and our authors have been featured on major TV networks such as Lifetime and Destination America.
