Looks to me that this company is going to charge you to publish your book.

If you have written a book, and want to have it published it is best to submit it to publishers who will pay you for it and not ask you to pay them.

I am sure they are legitimate, BUT you are going to pay them to publish your book. This is called a Vanity Press.

You pay for every step. Printing, editing, binding, artwork, ect... and probably up to you to distribute. You will get a highly professional job. As good as any book you see in a bookstore.

The expense of this can be astronomical. If you don't sell copies then what?

I'm sure for additional fees they will market your book.

Personally I feel that you should hire an agent to take your work to a publisher.

It mentions INVESTING YOURSELF in marketing and selling your book...........This means they want you to pay them to publish your book. It
it's a scam.

Authors get paid for their work, they don't do the work (writing) and then pay for it's publication.themselves.
