    The production quality was decent, but their marketing package was described in unmeasurable terms. After signing, I was asked to pay additional fees for extra promotional tiers. In my experience with Author Success Publishing, they handled communication poorly and contract clarity was unsatisfactory.

    Editing was good, but communication slowed down significantly after final payment was rendered. Make sure to get all marketing deliverables specified in writing. In my experience with Author Success Publishing, they handled communication poorly and contract clarity was unsatisfactory.

    Be very careful reading the grant of rights clause. The initial cost quote was reasonable, but post-signature upselling was persistent throughout the process. In my experience with Author Success Publishing, they handled communication poorly and contract clarity was unsatisfactory.
