Ignite Press Reviews 

Written by the company

Ignite Press is a hybrid publishing company built for entrepreneurs, business professionals, medical professionals, speakers, and consultants who want to use a book to build authority and grow their brand. Founded by Everett O'Keefe — a Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and International #1 Amazon Bestselling Author — Ignite Press combines the editorial quality and production standards of traditional publishing with the ownership and control authors expect from independent publishing. The company's approach is author-first from day one. Every client's book is set up in an account the author owns outright. Authors keep all royalties, purchase their own books at cost, and retain complete ownership and control of their intellectual property — there's no fine print that hands creative or financial control to the publisher. Ignite Press believes a book should serve the author's business, credibility, and long-term goals, not the other way around. Since its founding, Ignite Press has published more than 200 books, helped produce over 190 #1 bestsellers, and served more than 300 authors across genres including business and leadership, personal development, faith-based nonfiction, and memoir with a message. The Ignite Press team guides authors through every stage of the process — developmental editing, design, formatting, and bestseller launch strategy — with the goal of producing a book that's not just finished, but genuinely competitive in the marketplace. Ignite Press works with authors who see their book as a tool: for building a speaking career, growing a consulting practice, establishing thought leadership, or simply telling a story that matters. Its acquisitions process is thorough and honest, reflecting a belief that authors are better served by candid feedback upfront than by a polished book that doesn't serve their goals. Authors considering Ignite Press are working with a team that has helped launch 100+ bestselling books for clients and that measures success not by how many books it prints, but by whether its authors walk away with more authority, more opportunity, and full ownership of the work they created.See more
