Begin with the manufacturing cost for your chosen trim, paper and page count. Then review current prices for comparable titles aimed at the same audience. A price that looks competitive but leaves no room for printing or retailer terms may not support the project sustainably.
Compare options across marketplaces because discounts and royalty calculations can differ. Consider whether the book’s format, color pages or specialized content justify a different range. Revisit price only after reviewing platform rules and your overall distribution plan.
