My Price List for Life History Books "Tell Your Stories and Make a Book"

*see note below

This price list is for those interested in making a Life History Book using the guidebook.

HOW IT WORKS:
1. Purchase a guidebook from me. Price is $10 (plus shipping if that applies).
2. Fill out guidebook. Scan photos.
3. I enter your information and photos to make your book.*

Frequently Asked Questions:

What is the guidebook?  It is a booklet that is filled with questions that help you tell your story.  It's up to you how you fill this booklet out.  Ask your spouse, son, daughter, grandchild, etc.  If you need help with this please ask me.  

How do I fill out the guidebook? You can write in the booklet, there is a place for this.  Or you can type it on the computer.  This helps skip a step in the book making process and can be an easy, fun option.  I do need an electronic copy of your answers for the book.

What do I do when I am finished with the guidebook?  I will meet with you in person or talk to you on the phone, get your guidebook or your electronic copy of your answers and start making your book. I will need your scanned photos too. I take over from here, your part is done. I will enter your information and photos to create your beautiful book and tell your story. 

What does half service/full service mean and do I even need to worry about that? If you are filling out the guidebook yourself on your computer or tablet (electronically), or have someone to help you do that, then no, you do not need to worry about this.  It is for those that may need help filling out the guidebook and scanning photos. In other words, if I am coming to your home or calling you weekly to ask questions about your life and scanning your photos, then yes, you will need to pay me for that service. 

Half service means that you are doing most of the work, but need help scanning photos and transcribing your hand-written text to the computer.  I do charge for my services and the price is listed above in the picture for a monthly rate in addition to my one-time fee.  

Full service means you do not have help and need me to fill out your guidebook and scan your photos. I charge for my services and the price is listed above in the picture for a monthly rate in addition to my one-time fee.  With that said, I do encourage you to find someone you can trust to help you fill out the guidebook and scan photos. However, I am happy to help you. 



What if I just want you to make my book, how much is that? Let's say you have your photos already scanned, you are going to type up your answers from the guidebook on your laptop and then just need me to do the rest.  Here's how that works--I collect all your information and photos and make your book.  I charge an one-time fee of $50.00 and the price of the book, plus shipping and handling fees.  That's it!  My one-time fee is non-refundable and payment is required before I start working on your book.

What are your fees? I charge an one-time fee of $50.00, the price of the book, plus shipping and handling fees, plus any additional half service or full service fees.  My one-time fee is non-refundable and payment is required before I start working on your book. 

I accept Cash, Check (local only) or Paypal. 

*The price of the book is listed on the picture at the top of this post.  Please ask me how you can get 15-25% off of that price. I want you to get the best price possible and make sure that happens.

This sounds amazing, but I really just want to know how much will this cost me?  Great question. If you have everything ready to go--not paying for any additional half or full service fees--this is how it will work.  You choose the 8x8 book with the best discount ($37.19). Plus shipping and handling fees ($10)  You pay for the guidebook ($10).  You pay me ($50).  Total so far is $107.19 to be exact or $110 bucks. That's not bad at all to have your life story, your memories, your values and thoughts, your photos in print, on paper, in a beautiful book!  

What if I want to get a copy for my children? Of course, you want to get a copy for your children.  I can get you a great deal on this.  Please ask me for a quote.

My Price List


**see note below

This price list is for those interested in publishing a book that is not a Life History Book.  

Half Service means that you do most of the prep-work needed for your book.  You upload all the photos into your Heritage Makers account.  You gather all text into an easy to find place on your computer that can easily be copied over to your book.  My job is to help with the design, creating and editing (adding all the photos and text you have ready to go) to make your beautiful, high-quality book.  

Full Service means that I do most of the prep-work needed for your book.  I digitize photos.  I upload photos into your Heritage Makers account.  I collect text. I design, edit (adding all the photos and text) and create your beautiful book. You will need to help organize photos and text.

About the books- All books are hardbound, printed on acid-free, lignin-free, 100 lb. paper.  The binding is library bound with metal stitching, not glued.  Pricing includes as many photos, text and art as you want!

The very best price: Club HM. Ask me how you can get 15-25% off at checkout, more art, more photo storage space and project upgrades with Club HM.  There is no catch--there is no fee to participate in Club HM.  It is an auto-deposit program which deposits a certain amount of discounted publishing points into your Heritage Makers account each month.  If you don't want to renew, you can cancel your renewal in your account at no charge.  You then use your publishing points to buy your books.  You pay $30 for Bronze Club HM, you get 30 points.  Its that easy and that awesome.
