What kind of publisher is August Isley Books?

August Isley Books is a mission-driven hybrid publisher. We combine the creative partnership of traditional publishing with the flexibility and author ownership of self-publishing. You retain your rights, your royalties, and your voice, while we provide professional support to bring your book to life.

Do I keep the rights to my book?

Yes. You retain full ownership of your manuscript, your intellectual property, and your royalties. We are your publishing partner, not your rights holder.

How do I know which services I need?

You are never expected to figure that out alone. We can review your manuscript, goals, and timeline together and recommend a plan that fits your needs and budget.

Why do some services have flat rates while others have tiered pricing?

Flat rates work best for services that take a predictable amount of time, such as query letters, branding, website setup, or marketing materials. Editing and manuscript-dependent services vary widely based on word count, so tiered pricing ensures fairness and transparency.

Do you offer audiobook production?

Yes. We provide narration, editing, mastering, and production using the industry-standard per finished hour model. You receive a clear estimate before we begin.

Do I need a website to publish a book?

Technically no, but it is highly recommended. A website gives you a professional home base, a place to sell books, and a platform for future growth.

When I create promo reels for your brand, I’m crafting short, eye‑catching videos designed to stop the scroll and spark interest. These reels are perfect for social media, websites, presentations, and digital outreach. Each one is built to highlight your message, your personality, and the heart of what you offer — whether you’re promoting a business, a ministry, a creative project, or a community service. With two reels, you can showcase different angles of your work or reach multiple audiences with ease.

Dashboard Access Required?

No. I deliver the finished reels to you as downloadable video files, ready to upload anywhere you choose.

Short‑form video can feel like a world of fast cuts, flashy trends, and constant pressure to “keep up.” It’s easy to wonder if you have the right footage, the right style, or the right message. You don’t have to figure that out alone. I take your ideas — even if they’re just a few notes or a general feeling — and shape them into polished reels that reflect your brand with confidence. You bring the spark; I’ll help it shine in motion.

Price is for one reel. Adjust the quantity as required.
