I have self-published before through KDP, and I'm trying BookBaby now. So I scheduled a consult with Olivia at Smith Publicity. She was very helpful. What I liked was that we focused on a few things that would help me with publicity, especially on social media. Olivia also sent me articles to read, and notes from our talk. I hate being bombarded with too, too, too much broad information, but Olivia did not do this. She was focused and helpful.
