“The team was outstanding, especially my knowledgeable project manager who patiently and professionally walked me through the entire process. As a first time author, I was very fearful of the whole process but she did a terrific job easing all my concerns. If I write another book, I know Cascadia will be my first choice. I will also make sure I pass on to my friends who are thinking of writing a book the broad capabilities of your company.”
George Maliekal, author of Replanted
“Ben and his team were a complete pleasure to work with on my book. They helped me at every stage of the book and I benefited immensely from their experience and expertise. I used the book to market my services as a financial advisor, and the feedback from readers was so positive, and my results so successful, that I received more client requests than I could handle and had to start turning potential clients away! I would highly recommend Cascadia for any of your writing needs.”
Jamal Khan, author of Total Financial Independence
“Using Cascadia Author Services proved invaluable for me as an author and as an instructor with a busy training schedule. Truth is, I could not have done it without their help and ongoing guidance. I was particularly impressed with their start-to-finish process; their step-by-step procedures made the entire process easy for me to handle with my daily tight schedule. Although everyone involved was helpful, my project manager Michelle was not only helpful but also very responsive to my questions, saving me lots of invaluable time. Being in the seminar business, I often sell books in person, and Cascadia made this process easy. I also use Cascadia for their expertise in launching my books through social media, along with their knowledge regarding marketing campaigns. Thank you, Cascadia, for the part you played in making my books a reality!”
Rob Vivian, author of Expecting Awesome Daily
“I was genuinely impressed with all of the team at Cascadia. Their support was outstanding through every phase of creating my book. In particular, they really listened to my ideas about cover design and produced not only exactly what I wanted, but also exactly what the book needed. Their expertise on what makes an effective cover was communicated to me in a professional, supportive and patient way. Every stage of editing and book production felt like a friendly collaboration. Even months after my book launched, and I succeeded in getting the book accepted into the biggest bookstore chain in the UK, the Cascadia team was there to provide expert guidance and advice as I navigated the bookstore distribution labyrinth. An author couldn’t ask for a better industry partner than Cascadia Author Services. I highly recommend them.”
Ian McBeath, author of Going Coastal
“My manuscript has been accepted for publication by Worthy Press! I couldn’t have done it without you guys.”
Gail Baker, author of Matzah Balls to Communion Wafers
“From one-dimensional to brilliant! This is how I can describe my manuscript from its initial state to now, after Cascadia Author Services professionals, both editors and artists, have improved its presentation and content. From the time I submitted the manuscript to Cascadia until it came back rearranged, easier to read and with great suggestions, the improvement was absolutely amazing! Starting with an eye-catching front cover followed with a narrative nonfiction story that has been streamlined and made much more interesting, I am more confident than ever that my book will hit the shelves with a bang! Thank you, Cascadia!”
Ben Maure, author of Leading at the Edge (IPPY Silver Medal Award Winner)
“Cascadia’s team helped me navigate the traditional publishing world and guided me through the process of in-depth marketing of my books. When I first looked at additional book marketing, I was overwhelmed – there’s just so much out there to consider! But the Cascadia team brought real expertise to the table. They became my initial front-line marketing team, even as they prepared me to take over the majority of the book marketing as the final goal. They overhauled my website and all my social media, taught me how to blog efficiently, and helped me really identify who my target audience is for my various genres. Cascadia is friendly, flexible, supportive, and always looking out for my best interests. Now I feel more confident doing a lot of the online marketing work myself, but I’ll still rely on my Cascadia friends to give continuing professional guidance and to help steer my marketing efforts in a dynamic world.”
Sara Dahmen, author of the “Flats Junction” series
“What I like about Cascadia is that they are smart, savvy and knowledgeable in areas where I am not – that is, they are totally absorbed in the world of publishing and books and how to connect with readers through digital media and marketing. As a new indie author, I am still taking baby steps and so Cascadia is hugely helpful in making recommendations about where to go to get my books out there and how to do it right. I like that they speak with confidence and have very clear ideas of what needs to be done next so that I can keep on writing. Everyone tells me that it’s a marathon not a sprint, and that you have to take the time to do your research before you run hard. I definitely consider Cascadia to be a strong asset in enabling me to do that.”
Martin Humphreys, author of Can’t Buy Me Love
“The honest feedback I received from my editor Michelle was exactly what I was looking for. About twenty family members, friends, and acquaintances had read the manuscript by the time I sent it to Cascadia. While a few brave souls had given me detailed, constructive criticism to the best of their ability, none of them had the experience or expertise to parse the document impartially, as Michelle did. Her recommendations were forthright and clear but given in the spirit of helping me to improve the work in my own way. She was always willing to discuss issues by phone at my convenience and she sent me her reports exactly when she had told me she would. After each call, I hung up energized and with a renewed sense of purpose.
It was affirming when she pointed out the aspects of the book that were working, and extremely productive when she explained why changes might be needed in certain areas. My book benefited hugely from her skill, experience, and thoroughness. I found our interaction to be an empowering and rewarding experience that helped me to grow as a writer.”
C. M. Keeler, author of Beyond the Mere
“I have had the opportunity to work with the Cascadia marketing team on marketing my books. The team took me step by step through the procedure, proving themselves very knowledgeable and very easy to work with. In particular, Lyda’s level of expertise is excellent and she is an outstanding communicator. It has been a privilege working with her.”
John Gillgren, author of The Treasure of Cathedral Tower
“I found everyone at Cascadia to be very mindful throughout the process, especially my editor, Michelle, who was the most supportive, helpful, encouraging, dedicated and responsive editor I’ve encountered. I published my first book through a different publisher, but now having discovered Cascadia, I’m going to ask Michelle and Cascadia to help me with my third book, and the fourth when it’s complete.”
