Helping Authors Expand into New Markets with Strategy, Quality & Results

Since 2023, PublishMe has been the trusted partner for authors and small publishers ready to grow their multilingual and cross-cultural reach.

Entering a new language market involves more than translation. It requires careful market selection, cultural understanding, and sustained visibility.

 

PublishMe brings these elements together — combining expert translation, local insight, and coordinated marketing — so international expansion is structured, informed, and built to last.

Our Story

PublishMe was founded to address a recurring problem: talented authors were ready to expand into new language markets, but lacked reliable, coordinated support to do so well.

What began as a professional translation service quickly evolved. Again and again, we saw that translation alone was not enough. Market selection, cultural positioning, publishing setup, and sustained visibility were just as critical — yet often handled separately, inconsistently, or at prohibitive cost.

Founded by Michail Kollewijn and Valentina Foppa — both experienced translators and proofreaders — PublishMe was built as a structured alternative. One that combines editorial quality with practical publishing insight and long-term marketing support.

Today, PublishMe works alongside authors and small publishers who are ready to grow internationally with clarity and foresight. Our model is closely aligned with theirs: we succeed when the books we support succeed.

In short, you write the stories. We help them reach readers in new markets.

Our Approach

We believe international expansion should be deliberate, not improvised.

Translation, publishing, and marketing are often treated as separate services. In practice, they are inseparable parts of the same process. We approach them as parts of one coordinated strategy — designed to support a lasting presence in new language markets.
