Self-Publishing Disclaimer

Please read the following for an Overview of U.W.Y.G. Publishing Disclaimers regarding your Self-publishing Experience

At Use What You Got Publishing, we believe in transparency and setting clear expectations for our authors. We provide professional publishing services to help transform your manuscript into a market-ready book, but it's important to understand the scope of our services and the realities of self-publishing.

- Provide professional book formatting and design services
- Create print-ready files for major publishing platforms
- Assist with platform setup and file submission
- Deliver professional cover design
- Offer AI-enhanced editing support
- Guide authors through the publishing process

What We Don't Do

   contracted)

Important Notes About Self-Publishing
Industry statistics show that the average self-published book sells fewer than 250 copies in its lifetime.

Success in the publishing industry typically requires:
- A comprehensive marketing strategy
- Significant time and resource investment
- Author platform development
- Ongoing promotional efforts
- Professional networking

While UWYG Publishing provides the tools and services needed to create a professional-quality book, the responsibility for marketing, promotion, and sales lies primarily with the author. Our role is to help you create a professionally published book that meets industry standards, but we cannot guarantee any specific sales outcomes or financial success.

Sales and Revenue
- UWYG Publishing receives no direct revenue from your book sales - All sales proceeds go directly to the author through their chosen
   platforms
- Platform fees and printing costs are managed directly between
   the author and the publishing platforms
- We may receive small affiliate commissions from links on our
   website, but this does not affect author earnings

By engaging our services, you acknowledge that you understand these limitations and that our role is strictly as a service provider to help you publish your book professionally. Success in the marketplace depends on many factors beyond the scope of our publishing services.

*This disclaimer is part of our service agreement and is designed to ensure clear communication and realistic expectations for all parties involved.*
