After we align on your manuscript and goals, the next step is building your publishing team.
At Izzard Ink, the people behind your book are selected for creative fit — not assigned from a staff list. Editors, designers, publicists, and marketers are brought in based on your needs, your genre, and your voice.
Many have worked with Big Five publishers and bestselling authors. But we don’t select based on résumé. We select based on alignment — with you, your message, and your goals.
You don’t browse profiles. You don’t roll the dice.
You get a curated proposal — designed around you.
Want to see how we’d build your team? It starts with your manuscript.
A great résumé doesn’t guarantee the right collaboration.
We match you with professionals who understand your story — not just your category. We consider genre, tone, editing depth, audience expectations, and communication preferences. Because the right team isn’t the one with the biggest credits. It’s the one that elevates your voice.
You won’t see a wall of headshots here.
You’ll feel the difference in how your team shows up — curious, collaborative, and committed.
Once your assessment is complete, we create a tailored proposal featuring 2–3 professionals — whether editorial, design, marketing, or PR — who align with your project’s needs, tone, and goals.
Each match includes:
You don’t just choose your editor or designer.
You choose your team — including the publicist or strategist best suited to amplify your message.
We guide every match — and help you choose with clarity and confidence.
“At every step, Izzard gave me options — not assignments. From editing to marketing, I worked with people who genuinely connected with my book. It didn’t feel like a vendor list. It felt like a creative partnership.”
An Izzard Ink author
We don’t rely on a fixed team. We rely on the right one — for each book, each time.
Our network includes:
They don’t work for us full time.
They partner with us — when they’re the right fit for you.
It’s how we maintain quality without the limits of payroll models or freelancer marketplaces.
Authors tell us they feel seen — not processed.
That their input shapes the process.
That their voice is respected — not rewritten.
That their team isn’t just competent, but deeply aligned.
They don’t just publish a book.
They shape it — with people who believe in it.
