A 'Unique' Publishing Experience
Generally, no complaints worth noting...close contact and sincere relationships over a two-year period when writersbranding published two of my books, including the recent "Nostalgia: Stars of Yesteryear," a difficult, unique transfer of newspaper clippings to "book form"--more than 50 in-depth interviews and articles featuring famous celebrities published while covering sports and entertainment at the Los Angeles Times before retiring in 1991.
The only "negative"--Too many and too frequent pitches for money that ranged from hundreds of dollers to thousands. I understand, of course, that was that person's job, but at age 94, I had long passed pursuit of producing "best sellers."
Thank you, especially Lora, Olivia and Emily!

Mary Martinez has been very helpful in all the ways I described above. …
Mary Martinez has been very helpful in explaining just what writers branding does for authors for a fair price. She's a good communicator, and explained that writers branding isn't just trying to sell books, but also trying to develop a profile for authors which in turn helps them land a large contract with big publishing companies. Writers branding strikes me as a company who really wants to genuinely help authors and not just out for money like so many greedy companies in today's world. After a reasonable upfront fee, writers branding lets authors keep full profit from any of their books which sell in their store!

Little More than a money scam
The company has done very little to earn the $2,500 plus paid them. I had to initiate contact to get a response. They only call me first to ask for more money.
On June 25th they requested $2,500 more for my share of an alleged U Tube ad campaign. The reason for this is my book has low sales and the "money? people must be shown hits on the campaign to offset.
When we had our first conversation before any payment I told them the book had not sold. Now they want more money because the book has not sold to convince the mythical money people/ Little more than a scam.
Keep your money and don't waste your time.
I wish to ad a response to their response. Yes I hit the wrong key and it used the wrong number and I failed to catch my error. However that said and admitted it does not change anything. They were told by me the book did not sell. They took the money from me with that guilty knowledge. Now they want another $2,500 for a campaign allegedly designed to overcome that failing. They said up front that was not a deal breaker and now they say it is after taking my original funds. Please also note the response from them pointedly did not address nor respond to this key point. They also like to mention major investors are interested and ready to go if only I pay them more money for a campaign on You Tube. Still waiting an answer for that.

Hi Charles,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. I apologize for any frustration you've experienced. I’d like to clarify a few points to ensure we are addressing your concerns accurately.
Firstly, the total amount paid to us is $2,549, not $3,600 plus. Regarding our communication, we understand that timely responses are crucial, and we are working to improve our processes to ensure more prompt interactions.
Regarding the YouTube ad campaign, our goal is to provide you with the most effective marketing strategies to increase your book’s visibility. Social media platforms like YouTube can significantly boost exposure and potentially attract traditional publishers. We suggested this campaign to help your book reach a broader audience, not to scam you.
At Writers' Branding, we are committed to transparency and helping authors succeed. We have a track record of satisfied clients, and our continued success in the industry is built on trust and effective service.
We value your feedback and are here to assist you.
