Add-Ons
Here are additional services we offer both in addition to our main “content to book” service as well as a standalone service if you already have the manuscript of your book ready for publication.
Book Cover Design
We all judge books by their covers. Make a great first impression by investing in an eye-catching professional cover design. This is THE most important difference between books that become successful and books that never sell more than a few copies.
$700 for a bundle of all four formats:
1. Kindle/ebook in 1800×2700 size
2. Audiobook cover in 2400×2400 size
3. KDP paperback with spine and back cover
4. IngramSpark hardcover with spine and back cover, no flaps
Book Formatting
Making sure that your book is properly formatted means that it’s easier for your readers to read it. A professionally formatted ebook will work well on all major devices and e-book reading software. A professionally-designed print book will make your book look beautiful and give it a premium feel.
Ebook formatting (.mobi and .epub file)
$6 per 1,000 words
Print formatting (paperback or hardcover) per trim size
$15 per 1,000 words
Book Description
A well-written sales copy can encourage a person sitting on the fence to read your book. It isn’t always easy to write a captivating description for your book, which is why it makes sense to hire someone else to identify the book’s biggest selling points and summarize them in a punchy blurb.
$100 per description
Audiobook Production
In our busy world with so many people constantly on the go, audiobooks are the only way in which they can still get their fill of “reading.” An audiobook is no longer an optional format—even up to a half of your sales can come from audiobook listeners. Every author should offer their book in audio.
$50 per 1,000 recorded words for books between 15,000-30,000 words
$37 per 1,000 recorded words for books above 30,000 words

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I retain rights to my content?
Yes, you retain full rights. Even if we heavily edit your posts or podcast episodes to repurpose them for a book, it’s still your content and we don’t claim any ownership over it.
Are you a book publisher?
We are not a publishing house—we offer publishing services. You’ll have full access to your own publishing accounts at Amazon KDP and other sites. Your book will be self-published by you.
How long will it take to turn my content into a book?
Depending on the target length of your book, it takes on average several weeks to go from existing, unpolished content, to a final book ready for publication.
How much does it cost?
Send us an email, share your idea with us, let us know if you need any add-ons, and we’ll prepare a quote for you. The price depends on the resources you send us (it takes less time to write a book based on well-written blog posts vs writing a book based on a combination of articles, videos, audios, etc.).
