Preparation

You’ll start in the preparation phase with a pre-publishing consultation of your proposal with publisher David Mason. HMG ePublishing has several packages and paid services you can choose from, independent of any package. After a pre-publishing consultation, you can partner with HMG ePublishing to publish your ebook. If your manuscript isn’t quite ready, we’re available on a consulting basis to help you get it ready for publication. When you partner with HMG ePublishing, you will advance to the next phase.

Production

The production phase usually starts within a month of receiving a full proposal, often much sooner. Our decisions are based mainly on the freshness of the topic, how well it fits in with our list, how thoroughly and authoritatively you cover it, the quality of the research and writing, and the likely marketability of the ebook.

Promotion

It includes giveaways, advertising, content creation through blogging, author interviews, author events, direct mail marketing, email marketing, pre-order announcements, and other marketing strategies. The goal is to create as much anticipation as possible for the release of your ebook.
