Aspiring Authors
First-time authors who procrastinate or do not follow through on writing and publishing their book are typically deterred by one of the following reasons:
-
Believing you need a publishing company to get your book in the hands of readers
-
Thinking you are responsible for the finished work of your book (i.e., editing, formatting, book cover, etc.)
-
Not sure of the next steps once your manuscript is completed
That's where companies like ours come into play!
We are NOT a publishing company, but we help you become a SELF-PUBLISHED author.
Why Self-Publish?
Self-publishing is a great option for first-time authors who are working with a limited budget, but do not want your budget to limit your reach. The world needs to hear your story!
There are several benefits to self-publishing, with the most prominent being your initial out-of-pocket expenses. At Simply Ideal Solutions, our dedicated team (with 30 plus years of experience in writing, editing, and design), will turn your manuscript into a masterpiece, and help make your book available on Amazon (the leader of online book retailers).
Typos, incorrect grammar, and a fragmented content flow can quickly cause your book to be deemed unprofessional and lessen your sales potential. Our experts will provide editing feedback designed to enhance your reader's experience and present you as the professional you are.
