Don't trust first reaction: they count on your trust!
My very positive review on Sept. 17, 2025 was sent on by the company and taken from an email response to Daniel. It's true that Bookmarketeers did a good job with the publication of my three books, though there was an error with sizing for one them, which they corrected later, and the promised free copies, which were months in coming. However, the sales and marketing experiences that soon followed were a nightmare, and I should have stopped my relationship with this company immediately following publication! 1. Spent $999 on Ingraham Spark global distribution. Terms not discussed. Royalties ended up being about $1 per book. Dead end. 2. $3,000 spent on Barnes & Noble package--promised ties with 4 cities near me. Nothing was done. Spoke to manager at one of the B&N stores; he knew nothing about it. Fraudulent. 3. Spent $1,197 on new ISBNs for 3 books--told it was mandated by Amazon. I believe it was used by BM to expand presence of my books in wider market. Fraudulent. 4. BM began marketing my books on Abebooks as well as many other sights without discussing royalties with me and never set up my checking account to receive any funds from sales. I called them on all of these fraudulent activities, and they discontinued replying to my emails. They wanted to talk to me by phone. I'm sure that they didn't want me to have a written record of our past conversations.
