Amazon book publishing, handled with care.
We know what goes into publishing a book on Amazon. Our team facilitates the entire self-publishing process on your behalf — while your book, your accounts and your royalties remain entirely yours.
How we approach Amazon Publishing.
Amazon is where countless readers discover their next book, but getting a title live — and looking professional — involves dozens of small decisions. Trim size, paper and ink, interior formatting, cover specifications, categories, keywords, pricing and the book description all shape how your book is presented and found.
Author Central Profs takes care of the technical work and guides you through every decision. We publish fiction, nonfiction, humor, children’s books and more, and the sales account is set up in your name so you stay in full control.
Why it matters
What you gain with Author Central Profs.
01
Published under your name
Your book is published as your own. Sales and distribution accounts are set up in your name, and you keep 100% of your copyright.
02
Your royalties, paid to you
Royalties are paid directly into your bank account. We don’t take any of them — you receive the net royalty after the retailer’s own fee.
03
Listings built to be found
We research relevant keywords and categories so your book page speaks to the readers most likely to buy it.
