When SelfPublishing.com published “This Is Our Review of the Authors on Mission Services,” we knew it would spark conversations. And honestly? We welcome it. As a company built on radical transparency, we believe authors deserve honest insights before making such an important investment.
After reading through their review, we found ourselves nodding along. Yes — we are a premium service. Yes — we deliver a complete, end-to-end book creation and publishing experience. And yes — we charge more than many others in the industry.
But here’s the bigger truth: every one of those points is by design. And they’re exactly what make Authors on Mission the right partner for entrepreneurs, thought leaders, and professionals who don’t just want a book — they want a legacy-building asset.
Pricing: An Investment, Not a Cost
SelfPublishing.com highlighted that our packages are “extremely high-priced.” We agree. We are not the most affordable option on the market — and that’s intentional.
Publishing with Authors on Mission isn’t about checking off boxes or cutting corners. It’s about creating a book that establishes authority, elevates your brand, and opens doors for speaking, media, and business opportunities.
Think of it this way: you’re not buying services, you’re investing in outcomes. From ghostwriting to bestseller campaigns, everything we do is designed to help authors position themselves as leaders in their space.
For many of our clients, the return on that investment — in credibility, influence, and revenue opportunities — is worth far more than the upfront cost.
Authors also benefit from guidance in choosing the right publishing path, ensuring their book journey aligns with their goals and audience.
Comprehensive, Done-for-You Service
The review pointed out that we offer “everything an author needs,” and that’s absolutely correct. That is, in fact, our greatest strength.
Most busy entrepreneurs and thought leaders don’t have the time to:
- Coordinate multiple freelancers
- Juggle deadlines and revisions
- Handle design, formatting, ISBNs, and distribution
- Or build a marketing plan from scratch
We take on all of it. That means when you partner with Authors on Mission, you’re not left piecing together a book — you’re guided by a professional team that delivers a polished, market-ready product from start to finish.
In other words: we don’t just publish books — we build author brands.
Angel Writing: Capturing Your True Voice
One aspect SelfPublishing.com highlighted was our unique “Angel Writing” approach to ghostwriting. They were right to point out how different it is.
Unlike traditional ghostwriting, where the author’s personality can sometimes get lost, Angel Writing is built around deep interviews and guided storytelling. Our writers don’t just put words on paper — they study your thought process, your tone, and your stories until your message shines through exactly as you would say it.
The result? A book that feels like you wrote it yourself — only sharper, clearer, and more powerful. That’s why so many of our clients tell us: “It sounds exactly like me — just better.”
Bestseller Strategies and Marketing
SelfPublishing.com noted that our marketing promises — especially around bestseller status — can sound bold. And they’re right. It does sound bold.
But bold doesn’t mean unrealistic. Over the years, we’ve built a proven, repeatable launch system that positions our authors for maximum visibility. From strategic pre-launch planning to carefully timed campaigns, our process has consistently helped authors achieve bestseller rankings on Amazon.
Of course, not every book will be the next New York Times #1. That’s not the promise. What we deliver is a results-driven system that ensures your book gets into the hands of readers, builds credibility, and drives meaningful opportunities for your brand or business.
For many authors, that visibility is what transforms a book from just another publication into a powerful business and reputation-building asset.
Transparency and Website Gaps
The review fairly mentioned that some of our website links were outdated, and pricing wasn’t always easy to verify. We’ll own that.
As a fast-moving company, our services and packages evolve constantly — and sometimes our website doesn’t catch up as quickly as we’d like. But here’s the important part: our onboarding process is fully transparent.
Every author knows upfront exactly what they’re investing in, what’s included, and how the process will unfold. No hidden fees, no surprise upsells — just clear expectations and a roadmap for success.
We also back this up with author testimonials and verified feedback, so prospective authors can see real experiences from our clients.
We’re actively working to improve the website experience, making it as easy as possible for authors to understand our services and begin their publishing journey.
Why We Don’t Offer À-La-Carte Options
Another point in the review was that we don’t provide piecemeal services. And that’s correct.
Here’s why: fragmented services often lead to fragmented results. When different elements of a book — writing, editing, design, publishing, and marketing — are handled separately, the final product can feel disconnected and less impactful.
By keeping everything under one roof, we ensure consistency, quality, and efficiency. Authors don’t have to worry about coordinating multiple freelancers, managing deadlines, or juggling revisions — we take care of the entire process.
Think of it like hiring an architect to build your dream home rather than five different contractors. The result is cohesive, high-quality, and built to last — and that’s exactly what we deliver with every book.
The Premium Experience, Redefined
SelfPublishing.com compared our pricing with lower-cost alternatives. And we agree — there are cheaper options. But here’s the truth:
- If your priority is simply the lowest price, we may not be the right fit.
- If your priority is saving time, elevating your authority, and producing a book that truly represents your expertise — then Authors on Mission is the right partner.
We offer more than publishing; we offer an investment in your brand and legacy. Authors retain 100% of their rights and royalties, while walking away with a book that performs — not just exists.
The value isn’t in the price tag; it’s in the complete, polished, and strategic experience that empowers authors to make an impact.
Conclusion: Why We Agree
We want to sincerely thank SelfPublishing.com for their thoughtful review. By highlighting both strengths and areas for improvement, they’ve given us an opportunity to share our perspective.
Yes, we agree with much of what they said — and we embrace it. Every point underscores what makes Authors on Mission unique, premium, and results-focused:
- A full-service, end-to-end publishing experience
- A voice-first ghostwriting process that captures authenticity
- Proven marketing and bestseller strategies
- Commitment to transparency and author success
Authors on Mission isn’t for everyone — and that’s the point. We are for those who want a book that transforms their brand, business, and legacy.
📌 If you’re ready to invest in a book that doesn’t just get published, but truly makes an impact, we’d love to guide you on your journey.
