A real book launch involves platforms, file specifications, metadata, categories, pricing, territorial rights, royalty structures, and account management.Digi Book Studio handles the technical setup so your book can reach readers across the channels that matter.
Amazon KDP is important, but it is only one marketplace. Readers also buy on Barnes & Noble, Apple Books, Kobo, Google Play Books, and through library systems. Audiobook listeners may use Audible, Spotify, Chirp, or Downpour.
A file that works on Amazon KDP does not automatically work on IngramSpark. An EPUB that passes Apple Books review may still fail another platform’s validator. Each retailer has different metadata, pricing, category, and compliance requirements.
If your book is only listed in one place, it appears in fewer search results, fewer recommendation feeds, and fewer lending catalogs. Broader distribution gives your book more opportunities to be discovered.
Launch your finished manuscript professionally across retail platforms without learning every dashboard yourself.
Add Apple Books, Kobo, Barnes & Noble, libraries, and audiobook platforms to your publishing footprint.
Set territorial rights by platform if your book has publishing restrictions in specific countries or regions.
Your distribution plan can include online retailers, library lending platforms, audiobook channels, print-on-demand networks, and direct sales through the Digi Book Studio Bookshop.
Your print interior, eBook file, and audiobook are prepared to each platform’s technical specifications before submission.
We enter and optimize your title, subtitle, author name, description, BISAC codes, keywords, language, publication date, pricing, and rights.
Category selection and keyword targeting are based on your genre and comparable titles, not default settings.
We help manage publisher account setup, content submission, review requirements, reporting access, updates, and re-uploads when needed.
If your book should only be sold in specific countries, we configure territorial rights across each approved platform.
We advise based on your genre, comparable titles, and platform royalty structures. You approve every pricing decision.
Tell us your format, goals, timeline, and current publishing stage.
We map platforms, formats, pricing, and territories to your goals.
Your print, eBook, and audio files are prepared for platform specs.
Descriptions, categories, keywords, and retail data are completed.
We manage uploads, reviews, corrections, and resubmissions.
Your book is listed and ready for readers on approved platforms.
The Digi Book Studio Bookshop is a direct sales channel where authors can sell books to readers alongside retail distribution.
When a reader buys directly, there is no major retailer taking a large margin from the list price. Direct sales also create an opportunity to build a relationship with readers beyond a single transaction.
Every platform pays royalties on a different schedule and at a different rate. We explain the expected royalty structure before your book is submitted.
eBooks priced between $2.99 and $9.99 typically qualify for 70% royalty. Print royalties depend on list price, printing cost, and Amazon’s retail margin.
eBook royalties are approximately 40% of list price after Ingram’s distribution fee. Print royalties depend on the retailer discount you set.
Royalty rates are often between 60% and 70% of list price, depending on platform rules and pricing.
Library lending royalties vary by platform and lending model. Hoopla pays per borrow, while OverDrive depends on lending agreements.
Audible via ACX pays different rates for exclusive and non-exclusive distribution. Findaway / Spotify royalties vary by retail partner.
Your Publishing Specialist reviews your specific book, formats, and platform mix so you understand the royalty picture before launch.
You work with a specialist who helps guide your distribution setup from planning to platform submission.
We do not rely on a one-file-fits-all approach. Each platform has its own requirements, and your setup reflects that.
You retain your rights, ISBN ownership, territorial control, and pricing approval.
