- how it works

Your Distribution journey, step by step

Here is exactly how your project moves from first hello to finished book, one clear step at a time.

1

Prepare

We finalise your files for each format and sales channel. Getting the basics right prevents headaches later. We confirm specifications for print and ebook. Clean files mean smooth listings.

2

Set metadata

We write the categories, keywords, and descriptions that help readers find you. Discovery is half the battle. We choose terms real buyers actually search. Good metadata keeps working long after launch.

3

List

Your book is submitted to retail and library channels. We handle the forms and the fiddly details. We make sure every required field is right. Submission is where small mistakes cost weeks.

4

Verify

We confirm your listings appear correctly and completely. Nothing is left half set up. We check titles, prices, covers, and descriptions. What readers see is what you intended.

5

Go live

Your book becomes orderable around the world, in print and ebook. Readers can finally buy it. Availability spreads across the channels you chose. The store doors are open.

6

Maintain

We help keep prices, details, and availability accurate over time. Your listings stay healthy as things change. We update when you add formats or editions. Maintenance protects your long term sales.

- author love

Authors who said yes, and never looked back

★★★★★
“Writing the book wasn't the difficult part. The real frustration came afterward, when I tried formatting it myself. Every adjustment seemed to create another problem somewhere else in the document. After reaching a breaking point I contacted Purple Giraffe Press for their book writing and formatting service. The finished manuscript looked clean and consistent from beginning to end, with page layout, chapter headings, and spacing all feeling professional.”
Jamie Brook
★★★★☆
“The day my book was released, I expected at least a few weeks of excitement and visibility. Instead, after friends and family purchased copies, things became surprisingly quiet. I quickly realized that publishing a book and getting people to notice it were two completely different challenges.”
M Baint
★★★★☆
“I had tried promoting my book on my own with very little success. Purple Giraffe Press stepped in with a clear plan and helped improve my online visibility. I appreciated their practical advice and consistent communication throughout the campaign.”
Porter Zoe
★★★★★
“Great so far!”
Lisa
★★★★★
“I'm extremely sensitive to audio quality, so I noticed every little issue in the sample recording. A few sections needed adjustments, but the production team handled the revisions without any pushback. The final version sounded clean and professional!”
Tracy
★★★★★
“Purple Giraffe Press is amazing. Their attention to detail and dedication to bringing my story to life was outstanding. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Special thanks to Julia K for her invaluable help, and Mirsa for the breathtaking illustrations.”
