Here is what Lulu is really like

In the last ten days I have had some contact with support. I mailed them to say a book (which was being printed in France) had not arrived after 28 days though it was listed as being shipped. I had no gripes with the company as I had ordered the book with a non trackable mailing mode. Today, I received a mail saying, Lulu would send me another, complimentary, book with upgraded trackable mail - all free of charge. As it happens, the original book has arrived and I have  Informed the company of that, but what a nice gesture.

I then had a couple of technical problems and the guys on the forum sorted them out for me, great stuff.

Finally, I ordered two books on Sunday evening and they arrived this morning, wonderful service.

To all you doubting Thomases and others who want to know of other self publishing companies, I would say, think again. Lulu is the place to be and that is soemthing, coming from someone who once felt like you, but not now. I have found out what Lulu is really like.

It's time for the positive to eliminate the negative, there should be more feedback from all the authors who succeed.

goodonya James

Re: Here is what Lulu is really like

I agree. I haven't received royalties. My payments are all pending. I have an ISSN number rather than an ISBN. But I generated income from www.lulu.com by increasing my fame locally. it is a great store.

Re: Here is what Lulu is really like

Great to see someone else posting positive comments James.

 

I had given up on the Forum for a few months because of all the moaning minnies.

 

Maybe it is just that we Scots are more successful! Sales of my Lulu books now exceed 4300 copies and, like you, I have nothing but praise for Lulu.
