From the team behind Russia’s “Books for Millions”

Your book, from start to finishwith a reason for people to read it

We turn interviews, drafts, lectures and company archives into a book in English.

Personal oversight

Your project is led by Alexey Kornelyuk — the writer behind “Books for Millions”, a Russian book media project. We test the idea, structure and voice before committing to the full manuscript. Our existing publishing record is in Russian; it is not an English market track record.

We don’t promise a bestseller. We do the work a good book needs.

A book needs a job beyond looking good on a shelf

Put your experience into something people can use

Your knowledge, position and story in one place. A book gives readers time to understand what you do and why it matters.

01

Make your expertise clear

Turn your knowledge, method or professional experience into a coherent guide for clients, partners and your team.

02

Build a public body of work

Give talks, interviews and articles a substantial foundation. A book can support your professional position; it cannot invent one.

03

Tell the story of your business

Record the company’s path, the founder’s decisions and the values a slide deck has no room for.

04

Leave a personal record

Create a memoir, documentary narrative or work of fiction for readers, family and the people who come after you.

PLAIN TERMS

Royalties are not a repayment plan

Sales depend on the subject, readers, price and distribution. We are responsible for the agreed concept, editorial work, production and launch activities. The central value is the book itself, the rights to it and the ways you can use it in your work.

From conversation to finished book

How we make your book

A full book starts at two months. Length, genre, source material, your involvement and approval times determine the actual schedule. We agree the English production team and language review before work starts.

01 / STRATEGY

Define the job

The book’s purpose, reader, subject, format and your role in the work.

02 / STRUCTURE

Build the concept

Positioning, title, synopsis, chapter structure and a guide to the author’s voice.

03 / MANUSCRIPT

Write the book

From your materials or in collaboration with you. You review the work in stages.

04 / PRODUCTION

Make it ready to read

Editing, proofreading, cover and layout. Ebook and audio production are scoped for the language and formats agreed in the contract.

05 / RELEASE

Prepare the release

Agreed distribution channels and launch activities. English distribution and promotion require a separate, explicit plan.

Russian book media work

Authors on the Russian reviews of their books

Original Russian-language clips about Alexey’s book reviews. These comments concern those reviews, not commissioned English books or English promotion. English text below is a translation of the existing Russian captions.

Comment on a Russian book review

“Alexey Kornelyuk made a full review: you can understand what the book is about and what its main ideas are.”

Oskar Hartmann Entrepreneur, investor and author of the Russian book “Alternative”

What this demonstrates. An author shares a review with an existing Russian audience. The review gives people a reason to look at the book. This shows the approach, not a promise of comparable reach or sales.

The original Russian video plays here. No English dubbing or subtitled edition is implied.

A book on the surface. Useful work underneath.

The manuscript, cover and release are the visible part. The finished book can also support conversations, presentations and your own content.

Give the book a place in your business.

A book does not guarantee sales or attention. We plan how it will be used after publication, while we are still making it.

Choose the scope

Start with the work you actually need

Scope and a fixed USD price will be agreed before work starts. Strategy is $1,500 and a prototype is $4,500. Full-book packages have approved starting prices; the final scope and fee are agreed before work starts. Start with strategy, test a prototype or discuss a full book.

from $35,000

For the agreed package, including 6 months of social editorial work after launch. Starting at $35,000. Final scope and fee are agreed before work starts.

Plan your EXTRA package ↗Explore EXTRA →

Book and content

The agreed book and articles package: manuscript, digital formats and material derived from the book. For 30 substantial chapters, 60–120 articles is an estimate, confirmed after reviewing the sources.

Website and reader service

A book website and a PWA with one useful workflow, such as chapter exercises with saved progress. Native iOS and Android apps are outside this scope.

Launch and follow-through

Setup and 6 months of editorial work on 2 agreed social platforms: 12 original posts each month, adapted for both. One lead, reporting and handover of access.

The package covers a defined list of work. Printing, shipping, ad spend, paid placements and third-party service fees are separate. Pages, integrations, support periods and acceptance criteria are agreed before work starts. English distribution and promotion must be scoped explicitly; the Russian media network is not a substitute.

Terms: No guaranteed royalties, sales, fame or return on investment. We commit to the agreed work and production standards. English production staffing, audio, release channels and the final scope must be agreed for the project. The approved package prices are shown above.

Included with complete book projects

Your book in English.
A Russian edition included at no extra cost.

For a full book project, the included Russian edition covers translation of the final English manuscript into Russian and editorial revision of the Russian text. The book and the quality of the work remain the point.

This applies to Complete book, Book + expert articles and EXTRA. It does not apply to strategy sessions or prototypes. Russian audio, printing, distribution and promotion are outside the bonus unless separately agreed.

Before we speak

Common questions

A clear process, a written agreement and a book you can use. Overnight fame has declined to join the contract.

What does a full project cover?

Strategy, concept, manuscript, editing, proofreading, title, description, design, layout, agreed digital formats and project coordination. English audio, distribution and promotion require confirmed scope. You can start with strategy or a prototype.

How much of my time will this take?

You can work closely with the writer or provide source material and review key stages. We agree your involvement before starting. Interviews, fact checks and approvals still need you.

Whose name appears as the author?

Yours. Use of your name, transfer of economic rights and confidentiality are documented in the agreement.

Do you guarantee sales or a return?

No. Sales depend on the subject, readership, price, channels and promotion. We commit to the work and activities explicitly agreed in the contract.

Can I start with less than a full book?

Yes. Strategy defines the book’s purpose. A prototype lets you review the concept, cover and 3–5 chapters before a full project.

Can you arrange a print edition?

We can discuss print production, logistics and distribution once the format is defined. Printing and delivery are separate costs; country and channels must be agreed.

How does payment work?

The final USD fee and payment schedule are recorded in the contract. Stage payments can be discussed. This is a finite project, not an open-ended subscription.

You have the experience. Let’s give it a book.
