Your Book, Published Professionally
Being published by a commercial publisher has never been more competitive. Traditional publishing houses take on significant risk, making them highly selective. At Exisle Publishing, we have been publishing critically acclaimed books since 1991, bringing diverse and impactful stories to global audiences. While we continue to publish a curated selection of books traditionally, we also recognize the need for a new, more inclusive model—one that provides talented authors with the opportunity to publish their work with professional guidance, industry expertise, and worldwide distribution.
Introducing the Exisle Contract Publishing Model
This model is designed for authors who want to take control of their publishing journey while benefiting from Exisle’s editorial, design, distribution, and marketing excellence. Whether you are an emerging writer, an experienced professional, or an organization with an important message to share, we offer a collaborative approach that ensures your book is produced to the highest industry standards.
Why Publish with Exisle?
For over three decades, Exisle Publishing has built a reputation as a global leader in independent publishing. We are the publisher behind internationally successful books spanning best-selling biographies and memoirs, and groundbreaking works in self-development, nature and the environment, history, and business. Our books are distributed across major markets, including Australia, New Zealand, North America, and Europe, ensuring that every title reaches a broad and engaged readership.
With offices in multiple countries, a trusted team of industry professionals, and an unwavering commitment to excellence, we provide authors with a publishing experience that matches the standards of the world’s leading houses. Now, through our contract model, we are extending this opportunity to authors who want their work to meet the highest possible industry benchmarks while maintaining greater control over their publishing journey.
Three Key Services – Choose What You Need
We understand that every author’s journey is unique. That’s why we offer three core services, which can be selected individually or bundled for maximum impact.
1. Development – Put Your Best Manuscript Forward
Your manuscript is the foundation of your book, and ensuring it meets the highest professional publishing standards is essential if you want to be taken seriously by bookstores and reviewers. Our expert editors will refine your work while maintaining your unique voice, providing guidance that ensures your book is engaging, polished, and market-ready.
At Exisle, we’ve held ourselves to the highest editorial standards for over 30 years. We have edited and published bestselling titles, working with some of the most celebrated authors across multiple genres. Whether your book is a gripping memoir, an insightful business guide, or an inspiring self-help title, our editorial team will help shape it to its fullest potential.
✅ Includes:
- Manuscript assessment with detailed editorial feedback
- Editing for clarity, brevity, consistency and style
- Proofreading to ensure a polished, error-free final version
- Fact-checking and legal review for accuracy (ideal for non-fiction)
- Beta reader insights to refine audience engagement
2. Design – Transform Your Manuscript Into a Book
The right design does more than make a book look beautiful—it makes it marketable. A compelling cover and a carefully formatted interior help ensure your book’s success, increasing engagement and reader satisfaction. But it’s not as easy as it seems. An AI-generated cover image or something design hastily by someone who does not understand the boo industry will turn off readers and close-doors to book buyers at bookstore chains. Put your book in professional hands and give it the design treatment it deserves.
✅ We can help with…
- Custom cover design tailored to your book’s genre and audience
- Interior formatting and typesetting for print and eBook versions
- Custom illustrations, maps, and graphics if needed
- Print-ready file creation for seamless production
- ISBN & metadata registration to ensure proper cataloging and discovery
3. Distribution and Production – Get Your Book Into Readers’ Hands
A great book deserves to be read. Our distribution service ensures your book reaches its target audience, whether through online retailers, bookstores, or global translation rights. At Exisle, we have placed books in major chains, secured foreign-rights deals, and helped authors gain widespread recognition. Our expertise in marketing and sales allows your book to be positioned in the best possible way for commercial success.
We don’t just distribute your book—we ensure it thrives in the marketplace. Our marketing and publicity services are designed to maximize your book’s visibility and credibility, helping you connect with the right readers worldwide.
✅ We can help with…
- Global print-on-demand (POD) and eBook distribution in all English-language markets
- Placement in major online retailers and bookstores
- Book marketing strategy, including press releases and social media setup
- Publicity outreach to media and influencers
- Foreign-rights and translation support for international markets
- Author branding and PR consultation
* Note: Print-on-demand (POD) is an efficient solution for many book formats, but for certain design-rich hardover books, offset printing with our skilled partners will be a better solution. This will incur additional costs, but the price per book goes down significantly based on the volume you intend to order. Contact our team, and we’ll work out a custom solution with you.
