Market

How the process actually works

Six steps from manuscript to launch.

  1. 01

    Submit your manuscript

    Upload your draft or share where it lives. We give you a free, honest first read.

  2. 02

    Plan and quote

    A specialist maps the work — editing depth, cover direction, distribution and timeline. You get a fixed-price proposal.

  3. 03

    Edit and design

    Our editors and designers work in parallel. You see, approve and refine everything.

  4. 04

    Format and proof

    Print and eBook files are built and proofed. You sign off on a printed copy before we run.

  5. 05

    Publish and distribute

    Live on Amazon, Flipkart, Apple, Kobo and global wholesale — usually within 7 days of approval.

  6. 06

    Promote and sell

    Launch playbook, retailer optimisation and ongoing marketing — for as long as you want it.
