Book to Deal
Our book-to-deal package is designed for those who have their heart set on a traditional publishing deal. With our insider insights on what literary agents and publishing houses are really looking for, we’ll help you write a compelling nonfiction book proposal and get ready to pitch.
What we offer:
- An honest insight into what the pitching process is like and what to expect if you successfully land a deal, including timelines and royalty rates.
- Insider information on what literary agents and publishers actually want to see in a proposal and what really matters.
- A template book proposal document and query letter written in conjunction with a leading literary agent.
- Objective feedback and guidance on your proposal and query letter to give it the best chance of success—and the addition of our industry insights and best practices to give your proposal a competitive edge.
- Strategy advice to reposition your book idea if it’s unlikely to land a publishing deal as is.
- Feedback and guidance on your sample chapters and book outline to prepare them for submission.
- Help to research relevant literary agents and/or publishers that accept direct submissions for your genre and location.
- A spreadsheet to track your submissions—and the option for us to send the submissions for you.
What we promise:
While we can’t guarantee that you will definitely land a publishing contract as that is out of our hands, we promise to give you a tailored, hands-on approach that offers a far better chance of success than going it alone. Across the industry, the success rate for submissions to agents and publishers is estimated at less than 1%, whereas our current success rate is 50%—meaning that 1 out of 2 authors who work with us get offered at least one publishing contract! We’ve helped authors get offered deals by Penguin RandomHouse, Hay House, Bloomsbury, Routledge, and more. You might just be the next one…
