Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good?
Writersworld Too TOO TOO expensive and your book is not well promoted amd marketed to sell. Ask how much you get back??? Oxford
TOO TOO TOO expensive and your book do not get properly marketed and promoted to sell. Mostly, you see and touch your book physically, but who sees it to buy it and what money do you receive back? Ask that??? The common words you will hear in what he does for your book, are: “Everything and Everywhere.” What is "Everything and Everywhere" to him??? Not much for authors.
You get baited by SWEET TALK and an immediate return phone call to brainwash you and arrange a meeting which will cost you 250 UK pounds (as experienced). He will tell you that it gets deducted for the big total sum you will pay, where he will show you past few successful works. But, you have not even made up your mind to join him??? Be warned of paying for the meeting unless you are sure of going ahead.
From his conversation by phone, all you seem to get for marketing, is a Press Release and sold on Amazon.co.uk. Press Release do NOT mean it WILL appear in the newspaper!!! Got it??? And even if does which age group reads it??? This is not so effective as Reviews from USA. But does Writersworld want to pay for it from your HUGE payment??? ASK this to yourself? What does he do to market your book, then and yet charge so much?
Through Writersworld there is no physical books sold in the bookshops as no arrangement with bookshops as others do,
no social media marketing,
no book signings,
no USA Amazon,
no Book Reviews.
So why charge authors so much and what for??? Graham Cook (owner of Writersworld) seems to have old people mostly on his list, and from my point of view, they are not getting a fair deal in seeing their fruits of labour. They only see their book physically sold on Writersworld website and for how long on Amazon.co.uk???
But what you get though is your own ISBN and that is the only bonus I found with this company.
