For publishers

# Interested in publishing this book? Talk to us.

The Ultimate Insider is self-published first, on Leanpub from Monday 2 November 2026 and then on Amazon. We are looking for a publisher from day one: not to replace one, but to bring one a book that is already finished, already finding its readers, and ready for the publishing workflow.

## In the editor's words

"My objective with this publishing this book is not to get rid of publishers ... I'm creating a better brief, right? I'm basically de-risking this for the publisher, if you think about it, because what I'm doing is I'm basically having a finished product, so they already know what it looks like. I'm preceding the audience, already finding market validation, right? And then I am already getting everything ready for the publishing. So I'm dramatically reducing the costs of it so they can focus on what they're very good at."

"The publishers add a lot of value ... the publishers also have a level of distribution that I don't have."

Dinis Cruz, the editor, 30 October 2026 (spoken, lightly trimmed).

## What there is today

- **A finished first version.** [RC1](../rc1/index.md): 294 pages at 6 x 9 in, about 72,000 words, with Wardley maps, infographics and call-outs, revised in place from the editor's notes and the team's reviews.
- **The record behind every claim.** The book is made in public, from a timestamped git record, with every number traced through a register.
- **The research.** [The market on Leanpub, and what the best books there do](../research/index.md).
- **The plan.** Leanpub and Amazon first, readers and reviews next; the [plan](../plan/index.md) and the [editor's decisions](../decisions/index.md) are public.

## How to start the conversation

Open an issue in [the book's repository](https://github.com/SGit-AI/SGit-AI__Website__Book__The-Ultimate-Insider/issues) with "Publishing" in the title, and the editor will reply. Everything in the repository is public, so leave out anything you would rather say privately and ask for a private channel instead.

This page is new and the editor has not yet checked it; its words may change.
