Full Circle Media & Author Promotions Receives 2026 Best of Lake Forest Award Lake Forest Award Program Honors the Achievement LAKE FOREST June 4, 2026 -- Full Circle Media & Author Promotions has been selected for the 2026 Best of Lake Forest Award in the Marketing Agency category by the Lake Forest Award Program. Each year, the Lake Forest Award Program identifies companies that we believe have achieved exceptional marketing success in their local community and business category. These are local companies that enhance the positive image of small business through service to their customers and our community. These exceptional companies help make the Lake Forest area a great place to live, work and play. Various sources of information were gathered and analyzed to choose the winners in each category. The 2026 Lake Forest Award Program focuses on quality, not quantity. Winners are determined based on the information gathered both internally by the Lake Forest Award Program and data provided by third parties. |
Why don't I see pricing on this site? It's a question we get from time to time, but most authors understand that we don't have a one-size-fits-all pricing structure because every book is different. There is no way we could accurately or adequately quote a ghostwriting project, for example, or book design cost when we don't have all the details. There is a big difference, after all, of a 300-page business book and a 150-page memoir. There is a cost difference in the size of the book and whether it is just going to be released as an e-book or also in print format. Do you need us to shepherd your book through the publishing process through Ingram? Do you need editing, and if so how much? Do you need a book coach, and if so how many hours a week does that mean? These are not rubber-stamp costs on our side. There are too many variables. We will keep your costs down, and we offer financing through the PayPal credit program. If you qualify, great! You can have it all.
As for fixed costs, okay, we have a couple. We charge a flat $350 per 45-second trailer for your book. We call these BLINKS. (Like BLING but for your book!) We can create a simple three-page website for you for just $350. That includes lots of links and a gateway to PayPal if you fulfill your own book orders. And for an e-book cover we charge a flat $40.

"Indie authorship isn't a noun. It's an attitude. A mindset. It's about believing in yourself. It's a movement. It's a movement that believes every writer has a right to publish." Very well said Smashwords, we at FCM couldn't agree more!
