Pricing

Self-publishing or publishing through an independent press comes with more upfront costs than the traditional route and as each author has different budgets and skill levels, Tri-Blood Publishing has created a few different packages to help provide only what you need. Payment will need to be received upfront. Tri-Blood Publishing is here to help you with as much or as little as you require. Package A and Package C are the most popular choices with our clients.

Package Options

PACKAGE A – Interior Design and/or Editing Only

Interior Design
- This option includes compiling the author’s submitted book elements/documents and formatting them into a ready-to-publish PDF. This includes for hardback, paperback, and/or eBook. Elements include things such as the body text (in other words, the manuscript which is the main portion of a book), title page, author bio, dedication page, copyright page, etc.
- Price: $500 (Paid half-up front and half-upon receipt of files; non-refundable).
Editing services
- This option includes reading the entirety of the manuscript, correcting found typos and grammar errors, highlighting awkward phrasing, and general notes on story, writing style, and overall impression of book.
- Price: $500 (Paid upfront and is non-refundable).
Interior Design + Editing = $1,000 ($750 due up front and $250 due upon receipt of files; non-refundable).

PACKAGE B – Cover Design Only

This option includes having Tri-Blood Publishing handle the hiring and design of a cover for the author’s book. This includes ready-to-publish files for hardback, paperback, and/or eBook.
Price: $500 (Paid half-up front and half-upon receipt of files; non-refundable).

PACKAGE C – Interior + Cover Design

This option includes both Package A & Package B. You will have everything you need to simply upload to kdp.amazon.com and publish or to submit to another independent press that has more resources to help you on your publishing journey.
Price: $1,000 – $1,500 (Paid in non-refundable installments of $500).

PACKAGE D – Publishing Assistance Only

This option includes having Tri-Blood Publishing help guide you through the process of publishing a book through Amazon from setting up an account on kdp.amazon.com to hitting the “Publish My Book” button. Tri-Blood Publishing will be available through email, phone call, or Zoom call (not 24/7 customer service as this is a small press so it is best to schedule ahead). Another popular online publishing platform is IngramSpark and although Tri-Blood Publishing has not used them yet, the company has received great reviews and is another option to consider.
Price: $200 (Paid upfront and is non-refundable).

PACKAGE E – All Inclusive

This option includes Package C along with having Tri-Blood Publishing available to assist in publishing the book through Amazon. The author will create their own account on kdp.amazon.com and Tri-Blood Publishing will be available to help guide them each step of the way through email, phone call, or Zoom call.
Price: $1,200 – $1,700 (Paid in non-refundable installments of $500).

Payment Options

An invoice will be sent via PayPal to the author once they’ve selected which package they would like. If the author does not have a PayPal account, alternate payment methods may be discussed, however please keep in mind that the publishing process will not proceed until payment is confirmed.

Packages A & B require half of the total cost paid upfront and the rest of the total cost is due upon receipt of files. Payment is non-refundable. *Note: If Package A includes both interior design and editing services then $750 is due upfront and the final $250 due upon receipt of files.

Package D requires full payment upfront and is non-refundable.

Packages C & E require payment in $500 installments (each installment will be invoiced and due before beginning the next phase of the process. For example, $500 will be due before beginning the interior design phase followed by another $500 before beginning the editing phase, etc.) Payment is non-refundable. *Note: Final payment installment for Package E is $200.
