The ‘Publish Package’ Process
For those with prior writing experience — or with a content team or writer on staff — the Publish Package could be the best fit. This package includes an editorial review of your manuscript as well as the full publishing process given to our Elite clients.
For those signing on to the Publish Package, here is what you can expect the process to look like.
Your team
Once you sign on to work with us, you will be assigned a dedicated team to work with throughout the duration of your project. This team will include a Project Manager, an Editor, and a Marketing Coordinator. If desired, a Writing Coach can also be assigned to help you or your team to structure and write your book.
Strategy call
The first step in the process will be to hold a strategy call. Here, your Project Manager can get a better idea of how to best approach your product. Will you be requiring a writing coach? Who will be the one doing the writing?
A strategy call with your project manager allows the process to become more defined based on your preferences. From there, the process can begin to move forward.
Manuscript edit
Once you are finished writing your manuscript, your editor will provide both a copy edit (to check for inconsistencies in storytelling, flow, etc.) as well as a line edit and proofread to ensure the text is professional and free of grammatical error.
Blurbs and a Foreword
Once the manuscript is polished, it’s time to move on to additional material to be included by other contributors. This includes book blurbs and a foreword, should you desire either, or both.
If you’re unfamiliar with book blurbs, they are quick one- or two-line praises you see others get on their book from experts or celebrities in their industry.
Want to write a book in 2022?
If you wish to have book blurbs on your cover, or inside the first few pages of your book, this is where we can discuss the process. Who will be writing the blurbs? How shall we reach them?
Same thing goes for a Foreword, which is an opening letter written by another individual to the readers of your book. This Foreword will introduce the topic of your book as well as highlight why you’re the perfect person to write on the topic.
Book Cover Design
While writing the book is an amazing experience, authors often find themselves fascinated by the idea of their book cover. So we’ll talk through some design options with your Graphic Designer and then we’ll be off to work.
Once the graphic designer has come up with a draft based on the information you provide, a file will be sent over for your approval. Want some adjustments made? Now is the time to get this thing right so that by the time this cover appears on online bookstores worldwide, it’s something you’re satisfied with.
Your Marketing Plan
Are you social media savvy? Do you have your own content marketing team or social media strategist? The answer to this will depend on how we move forward together with your marketing plan.
Your package comes with a marketing plan designed around your industry. 3D mockup images of your book will be created, quotes will be pulled from your book, and other marketing strategies will be utilized to ensure your first-week sales are as optimal as possible, giving you the best chance to land on the Amazon bestseller list for your category.
Physical copies of your book
Holding your very own book in your hand is one of the greatest experiences one can have. Sure, we might be a little biased since this is what we love to do, but there are few things in life that can compare to holding your very own book for the first time.
We will send you 25 copies of your book. You can choose to do with them what you wish. Sign them for family and friends, keep them for yourself, or sell them at a local tradeshow. Whatever you choose to do with them, know that you can always order more copies through the printing company — and we’ll provide you all the information on how to do so.
Our Publish Package is one that most influencers and business owners with content writing experience find most appealing. It provides the writing and publishing guidance necessary to have the best possible chance to have a bestselling book — a marketing plan, a high-quality book cover, and promotional material that puts your book in the best light.
