You will get a China catalogue triage for your publishing list
Project details
Stop treating every title in your catalogue as an equal China priority. Fable by FREETEXT's USD 1,500 China Catalogue Triage applies one consistent evidence framework to up to six identified titles and is delivered fully asynchronously within 10 calendar days after complete inputs. You receive: a standardised scorecard and ranking; readiness, metadata and rights-gap notes for each title; a top-two priority recommendation with next validation routes; and a concise China-opportunity analysis of the first-ranked title. One consolidated set of up to five written clarification questions may be submitted within five calendar days after delivery; the written answer follows within two business days, and factual corrections are included. No call, workshop or live presentation is included. This is not six full Sprints and does not include a publisher shortlist, bilingual rights pitch, outreach, rights representation, legal or regulatory advice, or any guaranteed buyer, licence, publication, sales or revenue.

About Xin
China Publishing Market Research & Editorial Strategist
Beijing, China - 6:41 pm local time
I help independent publishers, rights teams, authors with controlled publishing rights, and publishing entrepreneurs answer one practical question: should this book enter China, and what is the most sensible next move?
My fixed-scope China Publishing Opportunity Sprint combines audience and use-case analysis, comparable-title research, potential-partner screening, bilingual rights-pitch preparation, and a 30-day action plan. Findings separate verified facts from working inferences and clearly identify what still requires client or rights-holder confirmation.
This is market, publishing, and editorial research. It is not legal, tax, regulatory, censorship-clearance, rights-agency, brokerage, or distribution advice. I do not promise introductions, licences, sales, or regulatory outcomes.
Please share the title or series, the materials you are authorised to provide, and the specific China decision you need to make. All pre-contract communication and payment will remain on Upwork.
Steps for completing your project
After purchasing the project, send requirements so Xin can start the project.
Delivery time starts when Xin receives requirements from you.
Xin works on your project following the steps below.
Revisions may occur after the delivery date.
Scope and catalogue freeze
I confirm the up-to-six-title list, the single China prioritisation question and the completeness of each title's supplied evidence.
Consistent title assessment
I score and rank all supplied titles using the same evidence framework, while separating verified facts, client statements, inference and gaps.
