The Core Asset · an established publishing imprint since 2011
Business books that win clients,
not royalty statements.
We help experts turn what they already know into a professionally published business book, without them, or AI, writing a single word. And we never take a penny of royalties. Ever.

Why we're different
Every penny of royalties, and 100% of the rights, files and artwork, are yours, permanently. One flat fee, no back-end, no cut of your success. A traditional publisher pays you around 10% and keeps the rest, along with your rights.
We draw your book out of you in recorded conversation, then named human editors write, shape and fact-check every page in your own voice. No blank page. No AI-generated prose. Just your expertise, made into a real book.
We engineer your book as an authority asset that brings you premium clients, not a product you hope to sell. The return isn't royalties. It's the work it wins you.
Not the two to four years, and the gamble, of chasing a traditional deal. A finished, professionally published book, in your hands, in ninety days.
An established publishing house behind your book, with its own ISBNs and professional production, not a self-published title. Credibility that stands up to scrutiny.
No agent to win over, no year of pitching, no one deciding whether you're "worthy." A certain outcome, on a fixed timeline, with everything kept by you.
From our founder
TCA Publishing was founded by Steve Hackney, author of four business books, each written to build authority and win clients.
