Assisted Publishing
What Is Assisted Publishing?
Assisted Publishing is a professional publishing model in which Innovation Era Press (IEP) provides authors with end-to-end support — including translation, editing, design, printing, ISBN assignment, and distribution. Throughout the process, authors retain full copyright ownership. IEP does not evaluate commercial potential or assume market risk on behalf of any title.
