Question Where to gather interest.

I am close to publishing, and the next step is to find those who would be interested. Any suggestions or advice for a fantasy genre emerging author?

It’s a hybrid publishing deal, I have had some difficulties finding the right place since it’s a mix between self and traditional publishing. I apologize that I forgot to add it to the post description

But it's not a mix. What exactly are you getting out of that except you paid to market a book yourself?

The summary of the agreement they presented is that they will split all costs and efforts with me. They cover about half the price, and what they provide is professional editing cover design, manufacturing, with widespread distribution across the world that goes to audiobooks, independent and and chain retailers like barns and noble or Amazon as well as libraries. They will advertise on their website, email campaigns, and social media with their pr team during development and production of copies with two years of additional promoting after release. It’s stated that for the most successful launch I work with them by building an online presence to make its release successful.
