The right setup, files, metadata, and release choices before you’re ready for publication.
PUBLISHING STARTS WITH THE DETAILS READERS NEVER SEE
There's more to publishing than simply finishing a manuscript and setting a publication date. The book should be accompanied by proper files, appropriate metadata, a clear publishing path, and a distribution plan tailored to the target audience of the book.
Technical tasks from finished files to release preparation are covered in our book publishing services. We read and edit the manuscript, discuss assets, confirm the publishing path and lay out the information to be used in the selected release schedule.
You are kept up to date with the judgement on your book. This includes metadata, categories, keywords, edition information, print options, and files currently in preparation. The objective is to have a clear release plan prior to publication.
This stage can be linked with other phases of the book publishing process, such as editing, cover design, formatting, distribution, and planning the launch, through the full-service book publishing option, especially for authors lacking these skills.
Four Parts Of
GETTING THE TITLE LIVE
There is an impact on the file requirements, discoverability, distribution range and organization of the release due to the choices made for publishing. We take each part seriously considering what the final publication will look like.
RETAIL LISTING SETUP & OPTIMIZATION
We create your retail listing information and files—title data, description, categories, keywords, edition details and the right print or eBook files. The listing information is compared to the approved book prior to release.
In book publishing for new authors, we discuss the key release parameters from the setup to the handoff in layman's terms.

PUBLISHING DETAILS & METADATA
Your Book’s Clear Fate
BEFORE AND AFTER IT’S PUBLISHED
No back and forth emails regarding project terms.
The author name, publishing identity, responsibilities and deliverables are ensured prior to starting the publishing work, which is then kept within the agreed scope.
Access details are documented
If they have, then any account or access requirements are documented at set up to make it clear what responsibilities are involved and work on release can begin.
No vague service scope
The scope, deliverables, and handoff points for the service should be clear prior to work. We describe what’s in the publishing package and what’s not.
A supportive environment for publishing
A publisher-professional relationship should provide you with adequate information for decision making. There is no point in adding services that don’t need to be part of the release plan; our book publishing solutions are built around what you need.

Upload & Proof
Selected release route is prepared with approved interior and cover files. Technical problems are checked by digital preview or by printing a few copies of the title before it goes to print.

QUESTIONS, ANSWERED
How is project access and deliverables managed?
Access, project files, and what is delivered and what is not, is agreed in scope prior to work being published.
What publishing details do I need to have before we start?
This will depend on the publishing path, edition and release schedule. We examine the existing information and determine what more preparation is required prior to the set up.
When can I actually get my book on sale?
Timing is dependent upon files being ready, proof review, release preparation, and corrections necessary prior to publication. Book publishing experts ought to provide you with a schedule that is based on the actual requirements for release, rather than guaranteeing a specific date before checking the files.
Which release formats you can support?
Depending on the available files and the scope of the publication agreed upon for the project, the release plan can be created using print, eBook or both.
What price should I set for my book?
Factors that influence pricing include format, production, page count, market positioning and distribution channel. The information pertinent to the release can be organized for the final review within the scope of the project.
