Our Publishing Process
Self-publishing a book takes hours of time and effort. We know how valuable your time is as a thought leader and an influential voice. At The Big Talk Press, we handle every detail of the publishing process so that you can focus on leaving your lasting legacy as a thought leader.
All manuscripts submitted to The Big Talk Press are reviewed by our editorial team prior to being accepted for publishing.
Our process is broken down into three phases, each taking approximately 4-6 weeks. You will have support throughout.
