Bring your book to market properly.

A clear, professionally managed route from manuscript to market, with your rights, accounts, readership and royalties remaining entirely yours.
Start with a Readiness Review

Publishing Readiness Review

A focused £495 assessment of your manuscript, intended readership, commercial position and most sensible route to publication. You receive a clear written recommendation whether you continue with Casover or stop.

£495

If you continue, the full £495 is credited against your next Casover stage. Continue one clearly defined stage at a time, with completed work you keep and a formal choice to continue, pause or stop.

A complete publishing journey, with a real stopping point at every stage.

01 Manuscript development
02 Brand and identity
03 Website and author platform
04 Publishing operations
05 Commerce and compliance
06 Press and publicity
07 Marketing and launch

At the end of every stage, you receive the agreed deliverables and handover. You then decide whether to continue, pause or stop.

Your book. Your platform. Your readership.

Your domain, website, mailing list, customer records, ISBNs, publishing accounts, payment accounts and production files are created in your name and handed over working. Casover charges clear professional fees and takes no share of your royalties or sales.

Your book deserves more than a list of disconnected services.

Editing, design, distribution and marketing only work when the decisions behind them are sound. Casover brings the journey together, giving authors one clear plan and experienced oversight from manuscript assessment to launch.

Appropriate technology supports analysis, consistency and delivery. Human judgement, specialist craft and your approval remain at the centre.

Human judgement first. Technology in its proper place.

The Casover principle
The Casover method

A clear route from manuscript to market.

One connected publishing operation, adapted after the Review, with a genuine stopping point after every completed stage.

01

Assess

Establish manuscript readiness, likely readers, existing reach, ambitions and commercial realities.

02

Select the route

Choose an established-audience, reachable-niche or audience-to-prove pathway.

03

Refine

Strengthen the manuscript and reader proposition while protecting the author's voice.

04

Build the foundation

Create the right-sized author-owned platform, from a lean validation page to a full website and CRM.

05

Test and produce

Measure response, then coordinate formats, metadata, proofs, print and distribution at the justified scale.

06

Publish and launch

Bring together direct sales, retail routes, publicity, fulfilment, advertising and feedback.

The sensible first step

CASE STUDY IN PROGRESSA Sapper's StoryBilly MacLeod MBE
Work in the real world

Publishing experience you can see.

The Billy MacLeod MBE project brings together the practical work behind a serious independent book launch, from editorial preparation and the author platform to pre-orders, print production, audience development and launch planning.

  • Book and series positioning
  • Author website, pre-orders, CRM and email
  • Print planning and production coordination
  • Payments, customer journeys and supporter engagement
  • Media, advertising and launch development

Billy brought unusual credibility and strong Royal Engineers connections to the project. His route shows what an established audience can make possible; it is evidence for the method, not an assumed starting point or promised result for every author. A full public case study will follow only with permission and verified launch outcomes.

01

Your voice remains yours

Technology supports the work. It does not replace authorship, editorial judgement or your approval.

02

Decisions before deliverables

We establish the audience route and next sensible commitment before spending your money on a full platform or production.

03

Clear gates and accountability

You know what happens next, what you receive and when you can continue, pause or stop.
