Sermon-to-Book Program
One of our most exciting projects helps ministries and churches convert sermon series into books. This aggressive program is another avenue in which we spread the Gospel all over the word in written form, helping to fulfill The Great Commission. In a little as 30 days, we will convert the audio files to text, edit the book, design a front and back cover, design the interior, and have copies available for sale.
That popular 4-6 week series on love, the power of forgiveness, or the Holy Spirit, will now be in book form and available for conferences and workshops, and shared with the world. We don't just publish the book; we partner with you to make it a successful project. Contact us for more details or download the .pdf program introduction below.
Author Publishing Program
The Author Publishing Program (APP) is our most complete publishing package that builds on the popular You Have the Write 2 Publish program. We still help you achieve your goal of publishing your book with added enhancements to make the project that much more successful. How? Glad you asked. We've added an entirely new, $5,000-value marketing component that includes development of marketing materials, an author website, a book trailer, social media strategies, and much more. In addition to all of that, we will announce your new book to more than 50 media/press sites for an even greater impact. You will also receive 50 author copies of the book to use at your discretion. We'd say this is the best APP on the market!
So let us help you live your dream as a published author! Contact us today for more details or download the .pdf program introduction below.

Electronic Press Kits
Every writer/author should have an electronic press kit that gives adequate information to help media, potential sponsors, event promoters and the like get to know who you are, what you do, and what you have to offer.

Press/Media Plans
In addition to helping you with a great electronic press kit, EX3 Books can help you develop a throrough press/media campaign to get you the exposure you want and need for your book to be success. We work together to set your goals and objectives and build the campaign around your strengths to target the appropriate media outlets.
We utilize some best case practices but we also tailor every plan to suit the clients' specific, individual goals. We incoporate a combination of traditional media and contemporary media efforts for our plans. For example, social media is just as big and as important as being on television so include targeted campaigns for blog reviews, online magazines, and virtual book tours. The possibilities are endless and we can help you put together the perfect plan for you. Contact us for more information.
Marketing and Promotions Plans
A dedicated marketing and promotions plan is usually an afterthought for a lot of authors. But at EX3 Books, we know how important it is and put the necessary time and energy needed to get your message to the masses. Some writers include a line or two in their press campaign and believe that will be enough. But we break down the differences between the press campaign, marketing strategies and promotions.
Again, we use best case practices that have been tried and tested. But some of those strategies might not fit every author's strengths or personality. That's why we work alonside the author to develop a natural-fitting, individualized marketing and promotions plan with a mix of traditional and contemporary strategies. Some strategies can work in concert with the press campaign for added momentum. For example, one strategy could be to announce on a radio program a one-time promotion for people who respond before the end of the show. We identify various areas of marketing and promotions can create a specific plan that should be followed. If you need this type of laser-focused marketing and promotions plan, contact us today.
