What Do I Do Next?

We’ll provide a professional editor and proofreader to ensure clarity and flow of text and correct grammatical and other errors in your book. You’ll receive a file that is marked to show the changes for your review.

We will obtain ISBNs for your print book and eBook, as well as a bar code for your back cover.

We will register your copyright with the US Copyright Office.

We’ll create a layout design for your manuscript, to give your book a professional appearance. We will send you a list of layout issues for you to provide your preferences; if you have no preferences, we’ll provide a few sample layout designs for you.

We’ll talk to you about your vision for the front cover and create some sample front covers for your review. When the front cover is approved, we’ll take the information you want on the back cover and prepare that. We’ll provide a bar code for the back cover and submit a full cover to you for your approval.

Once the cover is approved, we’ll have the book formatted for publication as an eBook and paperback.

We’ll perform research to determine the key words used by your target market, and recommend ways to optimize the description of your book, your book categories and other meta data to increase the likelihood that your book will be found by the audience you seek.

We’ll send you a list of information we will need from you, such as a description of your book and the pricing of your eBook and print book. After we receive the meta-data information from you, we’ll start the publication process. We will provide you with a digital proof of your book, and when you advise that you approve the digital proof, we will order a print proof for you. Once you approve the print proof, we will get your book on Amazon and Kindle as well as any other book retail sites that you request. Then we’ll order the paperback copies of your book that are included in your publishing package, to be shipped to your address.

We offer a service for getting book reviews for you and getting your book listed in online directories.

We also offer a variety of marketing services to promote your book, such as:

• Book Launch Campaign
• Social Media Campaign
• PR Campaign
• Bestseller Campaign

You will also receive our monthly newsletter, with tips for authors and business owners, and information on our upcoming SkillBites Show, where each episode is designed to foster the growth and success of our authors.
