The good news is, we can help you get there. You’ve finally finished your manuscript and are considering
your publishing options. It’s overwhelming (we know because we’ve been there ourselves). A quick search
leaves you with more questions than answers:
Should I self-publish?
How long will this take?
Is my book worth publishing?
Go the traditional route?
Does my book need editing?
Do I have something unique to say?
How much will it cost?
How do I market my book?
Am I doing this right?
Do I need to hire someone to manage this for me?
If you’re feeling lost, you’re in the right place.

As a professional hybrid publisher, we only publish high-quality books that meet and exceed industry standards. Our award-winning books are eligible for reviews by traditional review outlets and are respected worldwide.

If our acquiring editor approves your manuscript, you will be invited to join the PYP Author Family. We bring you along for the ride as we transform your manuscript into the book you’ve been dreaming of.

One of the hardest parts of publishing is not knowing what you need to do and when. This can make it very difficult to stay on track, while also promoting your book to your audience. In private one-on-one sessions, we sit down together and map out the moving pieces and parts to set you up for success.

We know publishing comes with many expenses so we will work with you so you can see how much you have already spent, how much you still need to spend, and how you can quickly make that money back. It’s not just the individual sale of one book, but also selling books in large quantities, and the new consulting and/or speaking opportunities you will create.

Through the entire publishing process, we will be by your side as a project manager ensuring you are staying on deadline and within your budget, while not adding to your stress.

Our editors will work tirelessly to ensure your manuscript meets industry standards, so you publish a high-quality, well-edited book that is a true reflection of you, your brand, and your business.

Often during the traditional publishing process you, as the author, lose creative control over your book. We will work with you to help you sell your book to your audience, so that means you get full creative control.

We know the ins-and-outs of effective industry-standard design, so you don’t have to worry about missing the mark. Our designers will develop a unique and gripping cover design to captivate your potential readers and the right interior layout for your book to ensure a smooth and seamless reader experience.

How your book ends up in the hands of your reader is one of the most important steps and deciding which distribution path is the best for your book is imperative. Different books require different distribution paths, which we will identify for you.

You’re not on your own with marketing—we’ll help you develop and execute a strategic marketing approach that ensures your readers will find, buy, and share your book.

We average about 30 new releases per year.
Yes. You own 100% of your rights. We don’t take ownership of anything.
Every package pairs manuscript-level editorial strategy with a production and distribution plan built around your book’s specific goals, not a one-size template. You get line and copy editing, which is partly informed by three strategy calls covering your positioning and audience. Cover and interior design decisions are made with your genre and market in mind, not just aesthetics. Distribution runs through Ingram’s global network so your book is actually available everywhere readers look for it. And marketing isn’t handled in isolation from what you’re actually trying to build. Sales page setup and press outreach are created to support your book’s specific audience and goals, not produced as a generic add-on after the book is already done.
No. All manuscripts go through an evaluation to assess editing needs. If your book needs a developmental or substantive edit beyond what’s included, we’ll quote that separately before moving forward, no surprise costs.
Contact us to apply and let’s explore how we can support your publishing journey.
Publish Your Purpose is a hybrid publisher of nonfiction books. We look for authors and storytellers with something real to say, and we say no to more manuscripts than we say yes to.
Traditional publishing takes your rights. Self-publishing leaves you to figure out editing and distribution on your own. We built PYP so you don’t have to choose between the two. You get real editorial and production support, you keep 100% of your rights and royalties, and you’re not left guessing how to register an ISBN or get your book into stores.
We’re not trying to publish as many books as possible. We’re trying to publish books that work for what you’re actually trying to build.
