Services

we Offer

Apricity works at the intersection of publishing, personal brand marketing, and distribution.

Our services are designed to carry an idea from manuscript to meaningful visibility across platforms and markets.

Publishing

We work closely with authors to shape strong, considered books.
This includes developmental editing, copy editing, proofreading, and beta reading, alongside thoughtful design for interiors, layouts, and typography. We manage ISBNs, printing, and production planning across print, ebook, and audio formats, with authors involved at every stage.

Marketing

Our marketing focuses on long-term visibility for both the book and the author.
We begin with audience mapping and positioning, followed by pre-launch planning and coordinated announcements. Launch support includes Amazon A+ content, listing optimisation, author profile setup, and platform-specific content across social, video, and media. Post-launch efforts extend reach through optimisation and Amazon advertising.

Distribution

We enable wide, multi-format distribution across leading global platforms.
Titles are distributed through Amazon and Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP), with international availability across the US, UK, Europe, Japan, Canada, and Australia. Ebook distribution includes Amazon KDP and Google Books, with audio editions supported where relevant. Amazon logistics, monitoring, and structured sales updates are included.

Built for leaders who want their ideas to travel further.
