Has anyone ever heard of, or paid for, services from BookAnnouncements.com? They are a company that helps authors with publicity and promotion. I'd like to hear from anyone who has used them. Thanks.

Our marketing staff has been working in the book promotion industry for over ten years.
Our contacts are updated monthly to ensure your marketing efforts reach the maximum number of quality bookstores and reviewers.
We work hard for each author to make sure their book is promoted well to bookstores, reviewers, and the media.
Grammatical errors might not matter that much if bookstores were staffed with the same people that work at Walmart. But, in general bookstores are staffed by booklovers who are voracious readers (not every single bookseller, just most ). Grammatical errors would almost certainly result in a quick delegation to the trash can.I have no experience with this outfit, but the sample mailing posted on its website does not inspire confidence. It's poorly designed and rife with lousy blurbs and grammatical errors.
