If you’re an author who wants help writing but prefer to handle the marketing, promotion and sales on your own, we’re not offended. Talk to us about getting just as much (or as little) service as you need.

If you’ve written your book but just need help getting the word out, we’ll happily take your finished product and get you across the finish line.
Just watch how easy it’ll be.
Full-Service Package
Ask our team for a proposal for your particular needs. For those on a budget, individual service pricing is available. For those needing the works, we’ll make you a special deal.
Development
Ramp up your next social media campaign by adding beautiful, custom-designed social media posters.
Each poster will be illustrated around an excerpt from your book, and comes suitable for social media and print.
Posting regular content to your website will build awareness while attracting attention…and sales.
We’ll show you how it’s done, or we’re there to help you do it properly.
