How long will it take to produce my book? 

Depending on the services you need, we typically complete book projects within 3-4 months. 

What if I only need some of your services, not a full publishing package? 

Our packages are just a starting point. We can provide a custom quote for services you need. We are happy to accommodate your needs. 

How many books should I order? 

We recommend ordering enough books to last six months. Initially, you will likely give copies to friends and family. You may also want to provide copies to anyone who contributed in some way to your book, or who offered testimonials. Will you need books for presentations or events you will attend and offer your books for sale. Most importantly consider how many review copies you will send out. Offering copies to newspapers, magazines, trade association newsletters, influential bloggers and related professionals can be a valuable way to build exposure. All of these factors should be considered when placing your first order. 

How long do books take to arrive from the printer once I place an order? 

Book orders are fulfilled right away and typically arrive within 2-3 weeks. Priority shipping is also available. 

When should I begin promoting my book? 

Promotion should begin before your book is in print! Book promotions takes time and the sooner you get started, the better.  We help you formulate your marketing plan and offer plenty of resources and guidance for your marketing efforts. 

How are payments for services handled? 

Fully Inspired Publishing requires a 50% Deposit up front, then two remaining payments to complete the balance. First payment at 45 days and final balance at time of printing. We accept checks or major credit cards. Payment for services and a standard signed agreement are required to commence your project. 

We look forward to working with you.
