Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the staff for their professionalism, encouragement, and genuine investment in helping them achieve their publishing goals. Many people highlight the exceptional service, noting how the team makes them feel comfortable and confident throughout the process. Reviewers also appreciate the comprehensive support, resources, and coaching that guide them from idea to published book, often exceeding their expectations. However, some customers also noted that the service might be better suited for writers primarily seeking writing-focused encouragement rather than full-service publishing assistance. A few people mentioned dissatisfaction with the cover-design process and felt they received little insider guidance on creating a genre-appropriate cover. Some reviewers also experienced brief coaching calls where their coach seemed unfamiliar with their project.

I won my freedom with SP!

I joined SP as a student in 2020. Three years later, I've published 19 books and am a full-time author. I never would've won my freedom from the corporate world without the amazing coaches and support at SP.

Hey Joe! Thank you for your review!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Excellent Service!

I had a consultation every month with an author who helped me walk through the process of writing, editing, and production of my book. There is so much to learn to produce a well written book. My book then went to an editor and illustration. This was the production phase and I was very pleased with all the help, and the work they did on the cover and the formatting. There are also courses that are sequential for every module.

Love working with Selfpublishing.com

Love working with Selfpublishing.com! The online course is hands down the best program for anyone looking to write a book and doesn't quite know where to go next.

I've been wanting to write for about a year now, but it wasn't until I came to Selfpublishing.com where I saw the possibility of making it actually happen.

Hey Andrew! Thank you for your glowing review!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Three of us wrote a Christmas book; SPS helped immensely.

Three of us wrote a Christmas book. We are all boomers who are computer impaired and believe social media is a TV channel. We had no idea how to publish or market our wonderful piece of literature. After reviewing several websites, we settled on Self-Publishing School… Excellent choice! SPS. They helped us publish our book on KDP Amazon and we are currently marketing the book. Their staff has been a pleasure to work with (dangling participle); superlatives abound, knowledgeable, pleasant, efficient, efficient. Give them a call; you will be happy you did:-)

I recently partnered with Chandler Bolt and the self.publishing.com group. Nathan Hambrick was easy to talk to about all the services available and helped me choose the one that best fit my needs, I didn't feel pressured as I have been by some of the publishing companies I have spoken to in the past. I have met with Karen Pina who is acting as my editor and mentor as I move forward towards publishing my manuscript!

Positioned my book to be marketable

Working with my coach has been great, they helped me get the novel I have been writing in my head outlined and typed out. I also now understand how to position my book from a genre standpoint so that it SELLS! This has been invaluable especially so early in the process.
