Book * Brand * Website

Feeling overwhelmed by the self-publishing process?

You’ve poured your heart and soul into your manuscript, but now you’re facing a new set of challenges:

  • Creating a cover that catches the eye and resonates with your target audience.

  • Navigating the technical details of formatting your book for print and digital platforms.

  • Finding an editor who can improve your book while preserving your unique voice.

  • Creating social media and marketing content to share it with the world.

These are common concerns as self-publishing has become a very popular option for most people.

There is a path to transform your manuscript into a polished, professional book.

Step 1 - Strategize

We’ll discuss your book, your goals, and your vision to determine services that are right for you. Then we’ll create a plan to collaborate together on your path to publishing.

Step 2 - Design

We’ll create a design that is aligned to your author branding and/or book theme/genre as appropriate. (You have the option for an author branding package which can be helpful to set a direction for your social media materials.)

Step 3 - Develop

We get to work creating all of your deliverables (book cover and interior for print and eBook, social media materials, brand guidelines, website, etc. based on what you need).

Step 4 - Celebrate!

You have your professionally finished book ready for independent publishing! (And if you choose the option for an author website, you’ll have your online home to promote it all!)

We’ll work collaboratively on what you need.

    “Editor, designer, and consultant are words people may use to describe the services she provided, but those words don’t do justice to the immense impact she made. Amazing!”
