INSIGHT

Speed To Market Is Real

  • Publishing fast is realistic once the manuscript is finished and the right process is in place.
  • A streamlined team moves books from proofreading to live on Amazon with minimal downtime.
ADVICE

Make Your Book A Lead Generator

  • Add front matter and a strong call to action so the book functions as a lead generator.
  • Design cover and interior to match your brand and goals before uploading to retailers.
ADVICE

Choose A Hybrid Imprint

  • Use a hybrid imprint to gain an ISBN and wider distribution while keeping rights and royalties.
  • This gives wider reach than sole Amazon self-publishing without surrendering ownership.
