Yes, Kendall Publication is a POD Company but we offer a lot of services that most POD companies do not offer...and if they do they charge extra for those services.
Welcome to AW. You use POD technology to print your books and you print them on demand.
However, your business model is that of a subsidy/vanity publisher.
If you have any questions please feel free to contact us, and you will get a reply the same day or at the latest the day after.

I have no questions except to ask who the editing services are and are they affiliated in any way with your company?
Kendall is a POD company as I stated but we do offer much more than most POD's on the market.
See above. Subsidy/vanity publishing fills a niche but I do wish you would call a spade a spade and refer to your company as a subsidy publisher. Too many new writers don't understand that POD is a technology for printing books and that it means the books are printed one at a time on demand.
We have one on one contact with ALL of our authors,
One would hope you have good customer relations.
we do cover art and edits if needed,
I know the editing service is an additional fee. Do you also charge for covers?
book reviews that are posted on amazon, barnes and noble,
Please tell me you aren't doing your own book reviews?
as well as a few other blogs, author interviews, virtual book tours, radio shows, and we even call and set up the book signings for you for 3 months!
Well, no one else calls and makes signing appointments, so I'll give you that.
We also offer the option for video book trailers and book marks at discount prices.
Neither of which sell books.
Diver Dave is a new author to Kendall and I'm sure he can attest that we're not a 9-5 company, we work around the clock pushing the author's book into the world. We are very professional when dealing with our authors, what we do could effect their decision to go with Kendall again in the future and of course we want them to stay with us.
As I said if you have any questions please feel free to email us and we will promptly respond.

In other words, you get the books printed as fast as you can and you have good customer relations. That's nice, but your business model is not a benefit to a serious writer, especially one who writes fiction.
I'm not putting your company down. I have no reason to do that, but I am clarifying what type of publishing services you offer. New writers can sometimes become confused when they see POD as there are a number of micro/small presses out there that are legitimate trade publishers who use POD technology to print their books.
