— Andre W. Thornton, Author of Disrupted, Founder and CEO of Whitman ConsultingWhat Makes Us Different?
Learn-It-All Press specializes in the publishing and ghostwriting of business and leadership books. We know what makes a manuscript strong, but we also understand what a business or leadership book can do for your reputation. The right book can strengthen your credibility, clarify your message, support your brand, and create long-term professional value.
During the publishing process, we work closely with you as the author. We offer professional editorial guidance and production support while you keep creative control, author rights and a high royalty percentage.

Professional Publishing with Author Ownership
At Learn-It-All Press, we offer the editorial guidance and production standards typically associated with traditional publishing. The difference is that we operate through an author-funded publishing model.
You invest in the publication of your book and retain 100% of your author rights. You do not have to submit your manuscript to traditional publishers and wait to be selected. Instead, you can begin the publishing process directly with our team.
Our experienced team guides you through editing, design, production, distribution, positioning, and marketing, while you keep control over the creative direction of your book.
This author-funded model is often described as hybrid publishing. At Learn-It-All Press, however, our focus is on delivering the quality, care and professional standards of a traditional publishing process.
Traditional Publishing, Self-Publishing, or Hybrid Publishing?
The right choice for you as an author depends on your budget and goals, but also on your timeline. If you want to publish without first securing a traditional publishing deal, self-publishing or hybrid publishing offers a more direct path.
Traditional Publishing
Best For
Authors who want a publisher to cover the upfront costs and are willing to go through a selective process.
Main Trade-Off
Less creative control, lower royalties, longer timelines, and no guarantee of acceptance.
Self-Publishing
Best For
Authors who want full control and are comfortable managing the process themselves.
Main Trade-Off
More responsibility for editing, design, formatting, distribution, and marketing.
Hybrid Publishing
Best For
Authors who want professional publishing support while keeping more control, rights, and royalty potential.
Main Trade-Off
Requires an upfront investment from the author.
Hybrid publishing is often a good choice for entrepreneurs and other professionals who want a professionally produced book without giving up creative control. You don’t have to wait to land a traditional publishing deal, but can start the publishing process immediately.

At Learn-It-All Press, publishing means preparing, producing and distributing your book. This includes editing and proofreading, cover design, interior layout, ISBN and copyright support, print and digital setup, distribution and marketing.
In other words, we help you turn your manuscript into a polished, market-ready book that can be made available through platforms such as Amazon KDP and IngramSpark.

To publish a business book, you can choose between traditional publishing, self-publishing or hybrid publishing. With traditional publishing the publisher pays the upfront costs which makes it very selective. Self-publishing gives you full control but requires you to manage the process yourself. Hybrid publishing offers a guided path with professional editorial, design, production, and distribution support while allowing you to keep more control over rights and royalties.
Based on these conversations, the ghostwriter builds a detailed structural outline and drafts initial preview pages. This critical step allows us to align on the book's architecture and tone before full-scale drafting begins, ensuring the foundation is true to your vision. The manuscript is then developed with two rounds of revision, giving you dedicated opportunities to refine the text until it sounds exactly like you.
-
Hybrid publishing is an author-invested model that combines professional editorial, design, production, and distribution support with greater creative control, 100% rights retention, and high royalties (85%).
For industry leaders, it offers a guided path to a professionally published book without the long timelines or lower royalty structure often associated with traditional publishing.

Amplifies your ideas through professional distribution channels.
Ensures your industry insights are presented with precision and polish.
Creates immediate networking opportunities and increases demand for speaking engagements.
-
On average, the publishing process takes about 6 to 12 months from the initial manuscript to the final printed product. However, timelines can vary based on the complexity of the project and your specific goals.
