eBook Service Package

eBook Service: Minnesota eBooks charges a reduced fee for conversion, and will distribute your ebook to our partners.
$499.00

Delivery options: Minnesota eBooks will deliver your files to their distribution partners at Apple, Amazon and Barnes & Noble and others. We will collect sales proceeds on your behalf and forward them to you.

Royalty rates: With this plan, the author receives 100% of their royalties after the distributors take their fees. Our distributors take about 30% of your sales proceeds and return to you the remaining 70%. If you choose this option, Minnesota eBooks does not take a cut.

Monthly Payments: If you receive a royalty check that month (as happens with 90% of our authors who have been published for three months or more) you’ll pay a $10 fee because Minnesota eBooks will receive your ebook proceeds and redistribute them to you with a full accounting report on the last day of every month. Checks are sent when your proceeds exceed $100.

Fine Print:If we have to scan your book in from the printed copy, please add $1.30 per page to the price. If you need a children’s book or alternate layout converted to the Apple iPad Fixed Layout model, add $150.

Convert printed book to ebook

Can you convert my printed book to an eBook for iPad, Kindle, Nook and others

Yes. Minnesota eBooks can convert your printed book to eBook electronic format.

All we need is:

1) You to call us and tell us you’re sending your book. Then snail-mail your book to us at
Minnesota eBooks
PO Box 146, Hudson, WI 54016

2) You to fill out the upload form as if you’re going to upload a PDF or other electronic file, but click the radio button that says, “My book is in print format, and I’m mailing it to you.” When you do this, the form will not ask you to upload an electronic file.

3) That’s it. Note that we might need to cut your book’s pages from its spine, so you should consult us if this is a one-of-a-kind or rare print. The turnaround time for a printed book is longer than for a file submitted in electronic format, and we may need up to 15 business days to convert it.

Note, too, that because we’re converting print there will be a $1.30 per-page upcharge when you make that choice. In rare cases, we will contact you if your book will take more resources to convert than we predict; this is a rarity, however. Cases such as old photo books, how-to manuals, graphic-intensive books take more time because we need to carefully scan and retouch images for the best possible reproduction. Think you might fall into that category? Call us at (651) 204-3753 and we can talk it over.

eBook Marketing

Minnesota eBooks will convert your ebook, publish it, and help you market it. We can set up a program according to your needs, expose your book to the market, create demand for it, and help you sell as many copies as possible.
