Tucker Max explains Scribe's model: authors pay a flat fee for editing, design, and distribution, keep all rights and royalties, and make final creative decisions. High-selling authors earn 2 to 4 times more per book than traditional publishing offers.

Scribe's model is like the opposite of traditional publishing in that we don't offer advances. We actually just charge a clear, fixed, flat rate for the work that a traditional publisher will do. So you bring a manuscript to us, we'll copy edit it, we'll proofread it, we'll do cover design, we'll do page layout, we'll do illustrations, we'll design all the final files the way you want, we'll help you get uploaded for distribution and launched. And then you make all the final creative decisions. You keep all your rights and you keep all your royalties. Wow. Which is, for one, for people like me and Goggins who are going to go sell a lot of books, that's a huge ROI on the royalties because we're earning two to four times as much as a traditionally published author would on a per book basis. But the more important thing is actually that there are thousands, millions of authors that would a traditional publisher would never even consider, because they'll only sell a thousand books or ten thousand books.
