The investment depends on where your book starts and how much of the launch you want us to run. We walk you through all of it on a call, and you leave with a number.

Talk to a co-founderMiles Rote, Author.Inc co-founder, takes every one of these calls himself. You'll leave with the number, what sits behind it, and an honest read on whether the book is worth it for your business.

The number depends on where your book starts and how much of the launch you want us to run, so a single figure on a page would be wrong for most of the people reading it. You get the full breakdown on the call and in writing afterwards, and nothing is collected on either.
Everything that turns your expertise into a published book: your Book Strategist, the recording sessions with your Book Director, the manuscript in your voice, the initial line edit, weekly editing sessions with a senior Author.Inc editor, copyediting and proofreading, elite cover and interior design, publishing under the Author.Inc imprint, and distribution to Amazon, IngramSpark and the major retailers. Launch work and weekly advisory calls are in there too, and how much of that you want is what moves the number.
We stay with you for up to six more months to get it finished. The schedule is built to keep you moving, because the authors who ship are the ones who stay on pace.
You do. Your manuscript, your rights, and 100% of your royalties. Books publish under the Author.Inc imprint with ISBNs registered to Author.Inc, which is how we handle distribution on your behalf.
Around month four, as the manuscript enters editorial, we sit down for the marketing conversation: what the book should do for your business once it's out, and how. The launch email campaign, the pre-sale process and the advisory calls carry you through it. If you want us running the marketing with you after launch, that is a separate conversation and a separate agreement.
Every engagement has a payment plan and a pay-in-full price. The schedule is in your invitation. Nothing is collected on this page.
Start with the Book Blueprint, a paid engagement over seven to ten business days that finds the strongest version of your book. The full fee is credited toward Publish if you move forward within six months.
