GBRoger Hood and his Audible Publishing Team Roger Hood and his Audible Publishing team were very courteous and helpful throughout the audiobook publishing process. Really appreciated their professional services for bringing my work, The Unborn Odyssey: A Novel, to the audio format. I also highly and singulary wish to thank and commend the narrator, Michael Hajiatonis, for a highly polished professional approach to the narrative; his voice interpretation for all the characters was most uncanny, and expressed his heightened intuition of the text as he was able to change characters in a flawless manner. Cannot praise all their services enough. Job well done, guys!

GBMark is extremely prompt and efficient and caring! I was referred by an author friend to Mark Williams who had used his team to publish his book. I had just finished writing my book and was ready to publish it and it's now published on Amazon! The quality looks great and the editing and formatting done was phenomenal. I felt I really trusted Mark throughout the publishing process and he was there for me every minute I reached out to talk to him or ask a question and he was patient in explaining how the marketing team worked and what they would do for me. Each time I sent an edit for my book I would get a prompt reply within hours or early the next morning after submitting something at night of what they were doing to help me get a step further in the publishing process. Mark is a genuine sincere person who I know cared that I was feeling I'm trusting everyone and that they are doing everything I'm wanting. They made a website that was more than I could ask for and he was always one step ahead of me keeping me posted. Trust Mark, and know that he really is reliable and very efficient and the team is very talented and I couldn't have asked for more now that the book is published with amazing formatting and a beautiful quality cover.

GBSeems VERY misleading! Customer service representative became more and more agitated when I didn't commit to contract and payment. He became rude simply because I was doing my due diligence and looking at competitors and their price points and how they compared to the Amazon Audio Book Publishing offer. To be fair, his supervisor stepped in and was polite. But when I asked if their company was directly affiliated with Amazon, his answer was vague. Here is his answer: "Amazon is an e-commerce platform selling almost everything and they have sub-companies to take care of the categories and seller facilitations. For book publication facilitation they have a sub-company called ‘Amazon Publishings’ You can google it for more clarification. We are affiliated with Amazon Publishings which is under the umbrella of Amazon run by Jeff Bezos. In short, you are at the right place, no need to worry about it. Regards,” I did "Google" their company. and it appears they are NOT under the umbrella of Amazon. I searched on and throughout direct links with Amazon…if their company is affiliated, it’s very challenging to find them directly through any connection with Amazon. Had he simply been truthful, I might have actually still considered using their company. And, had the original sales representative been kinder, my "red flag" radar probably wouldn't have gone off today. Also, to be fair, I have no idea if they actually deliver on what they promise. I didn't want to risk over a $1000 to find out when even at the customer service stage of just getting information about them, they seemed to be rude and misleading. They definitely want you to believe they are associated with Amazon; kudos to them for being savvy with their own marketing and use of the name. But it seems to be more than just strategic. It feels dishonest. For example, in one of my earliest exchanges with the first sales representative, he asked if my email was the same email I use with Amazon. Why would they ask this if they're not affiliated with Amazon? In my last email to the supervisor, I wrote, "It appears you are not under the umbrella of Amazon." His reply?: "Alright. Feel free to get back to me if you need our help." So, he didn't dispute my findings, but earlier he seemed to double down on their affiliation. I’m open to being corrected, but If they're dishonest and not forthcoming about this, can they really be trusted with what they promise? I honestly don't know, but it's weighed heavily enough on me to write this review.

GBHIGHLY SKILLED EXECUTIVE PROFESSIONALISM The superior knowledge of the market and the implementation of multiple parameters of the publishing process. I also think Mark Williams is an astute businessman and represents your company in a positive high-level professionalism.
