For small and hybrid presses

Keep the press you love.
Hand the admin to your agent.

You started a press for the books. Now the quarter-end royalty spreadsheets, the W-8BENs and the author email take most of the week. Your agent takes that work on, in your name, and you keep every decision.

The problem

The paperwork grows faster than the catalogue

Every quarter, sales reports from each store have to be matched to books, contracts and withholding rates, then turned into statements.

Foreign authors need W-8BEN forms and treaty rates. US authors need W-9s and 1099s.

Authors write in with questions every day, and each one deserves a proper answer.

The answer

What your agent takes on

  • Imports your KDP and IngramSpark sales reports each quarter, matches each sale to its book, applies each author's contract and any tax withholding, and prepares statements for you to approve.
  • Collects W-9 and W-8BEN forms and prepares year-end 1099 and 1042-S forms.
  • Answers author email in your name. Money, royalties, rights, contracts and complaints always come to you.
  • Produces new titles from finished manuscripts: proofreading, covers, ebook and print interiors, metadata and distribution, all included in your plan.
  • Gives every author a portal with their book's progress, files and royalty statements.
An example

Setup includes bringing over up to 100 existing titles with their files, metadata and royalty history; larger backlists are $3 for each additional title. Presses already publishing with eBookIt or SelfPublishing.pro pay no per-title import fee.

A good fit

Small and hybrid presses with a working catalogue and authors to pay.

Probably not for you

Presses that want human editors or human narrators supplied with the service. We don't sell human editing, human narration or translation.
