Who we are…
We love books. We love story. And we believe that YOUR story belongs in a book that you can be proud to pass along to anyone you meet.
Book Launchers founder, award winning author Julie Broad, knows the challenges authors face. Writing a book is hard enough. Navigating the crazy confusing waters of self-publishing can overwhelm the most motivated authors. Then, you have to sell
your book! Many companies help you with various pieces of your self-publishing journey, but few companies work with an author side by side, ensuring a book is not just written well, published professionally and available for sale, but that the author achieves their goals for their business with the book by creating a strong platform, marketing the book and getting it in the hands of their ideal readers.
Build your brand, boost your brand and leave a great legacy by putting your story, expertise and experience in a book! We’d love to help you take your book from a concept to copies in readers hands.
What we do…
We are your personal and professional publishing team. We aren’t your publisher. What’s the difference? You own your work and keep all the royalties! You ALWAYS have complete creative control of your project. If you want to sell the rights to your book overseas or print 100 copies to give away, you can. It’s all yours. We aren’t just teaching you the steps to take – we do a lot of the work for you! We know you’re busy.
And, even if it takes you 18 months to complete your book project, our low cost monthly payment plans will make your project affordable while never skimping on quality. Your finished book will look just like a book published by a traditional big five publishing company.
Your clients, friends and family don’t need to know your book was self-published if you don’t want to tell them.
Plus, if you’re a platinum level client, we’re going to get our hands dirty to help you sell your book! We want to do everything possible to ensure you reach your business goals with your book.
Your project isn’t a success until we’ve helped you get copies into readers hands and your overall objective is reached!
How it works…
We’re focused on your goals. Whether you want to write a book to boost your business, build your brand, leave a legacy or become a best selling author – we will work with you to achieve your goals.
To start, we’ll work with you to create a personalized publishing plan – including planning for the promotion of your book. Because – what’s the point of writing a book that nobody will know about?
Working with us, you’ll write a book that
people will want to read … and you’ll be supported to promote it so lots of people DO read it!
Depending on what membership plan you’re on and what phase you’re in, you’ll be working with one of our professional team members who will help you and your manuscript move forward to the next phase of your project. From a writing coach, to editors, to designers and marketing experts, you’ll have an entire team of people available to help you take your book project through the five phases:
- Pen to Paper (Writing Your Book)
- Process (Editing)
- Publishing (Design, Layout, & Set Up with Printing and Distribution)
- Platform (Building the business around the book including website, social media,and other services offered around the book)
- Promote (Selling the book).
Your Book Launchers membership means that our professional publishing team is YOUR professional publishing team.
The pricing is pretty darn affordable if you compare it to hiring these folks separately and doing it all on your own, so you might be asking … what’s the catch? There isn’t one really. We love books and we want to help you to get yours into the world!
The only thing you really need to know is that only one person from our professional team will work on your book at a time as it moves through the phases. This keeps the project clearly on track and minimizes communication issues.
Just because only one person on our team is working on your book at any one time, that doesn’t mean YOU can’t work on things to keep the project moving forward. In your plan you’ll have ideas and tasks to build your author platform and get things ready for your promotional plan. You can do that while our editor is hard at work, or while the cover designs are being dreamed up for you! And, of course, when our team is done, you’ll need to review everything to make sure your book is exactly the way you want it!
Unlike traditional publishing … this is YOUR BOOK, YOUR WAY. You have total creative control AND you keep 100% of the royalties.
And, if you have questions at any time while you’re a client, your dedicated Client Care Specialist will always get back to you within 2 business days (if not MUCH faster!).
You could be celebrating the launch of your book and enjoying all the profits in 2019. Whether you want to write your non-fiction book yourself, or you want to work with our writers, we have a great solution for you to write, publish, and sell a book to grow your brand and business in 2019. Let’s chat about it!
