The business, recently rebranded as Christian Editing and Design (CED), was originally founded in 2009 and offers a variety of online Christian publishing services. These services include editing for both adult and children's books, academic editing, critiques, coaching, ghostwriting, transcription, translation, songwriting, cover and interior design, e-book creation, audiobook production, illustrating, website design, social media marketing, promotional tools, and podcast services. The business is staffed by a team of committed Christian professionals who work as freelancers and are dedicated to supporting clients and their ministries.
Currently, editing services make up 56% of sales, with adult book editing being the most popular. The design services account for 44%, with interior page formatting and audiobook production showing promise. The business is home-based, with all administrative tasks, project coordination, and marketing being managed by the owner. Though minimal marketing has been done, there is significant potential for growth through increased social media marketing and expansion into audiobooks and podcast services.
The owner, now 79, wishes to focus on other ministries and is looking to sell the business to a Christian editor, writer, or designer seeking growth opportunities. The sale includes websites, blogs, and a client list. Should the new owner need assistance, post-sale support will be provided to ensure a smooth transition. There are many avenues for expanding the business, including building on social media marketing, developing audiobook and podcast services, and tapping into children's book services.
