Can I request feedback or consultation on my book without full editing services?
Absolutely! Our editing and consultation services are specific and can be utilized by any writer who wants to better their work. If you require some help with the overall idea of your book and how it is built, or you want our detailed notes on how the flow of your text requires adjustments and transitions, we can adjust the feedback to your requests. Furthermore, upon your request, our editors can apply changes to improve your manuscript according to your suggestions.
How much involvement is required from me during the process?
How much you participate depends on your willingness. You can closely supervise your ghostwriter’s writing or give initial instructions and final approval. This is your book, so you decide what goes in it and how it works, and we’ll follow your pace. However, a personal interaction between the writer and ghostwriter is essential to elevate the story in autobiographies and memoirs.
How long does Mayfair Publishers process normally take?
It usually relies on your preferences and degree of involvement as an author. Depending on your schedule, our ghostwriters can create content for your review and approval every week or every two weeks. This indicates that the project is continuously moving forward while still being respectful of your work schedule and ideas.
How does Mayfair Publishers ensure the qualifications of its writers?
All our writers and developmental editors who work for our company are always vetted and tested before they are hired. This involves checking their credentials, assessing their performance by conducting sample assignments and evaluating their published works. We evaluate their skills to assign writers who can meet each project’s demands to deliver the best for your book.
Are your services 100% confidential?
Yes, of course! All our services are strictly anonymous. We will never utilize any of the information you provided for any purpose other than for the book, nor will we ever again use the material written for the book. We do fully describe our privacy policy on our website and will be glad to forward you a non-disclosure agreement. If you are satisfied and agree, you can write a testimonial, and we will publish it online.
Do I need to credit the ghostwriter or share authorship?
Not at all! The story we help you write will always be yours, and the entire process is kept totally private. We have no ownership or rights to your work; you are the only author. You owe us no credit or extra money, even if your book becomes a success unless you want to give us credit. Although it is always appreciated, acknowledgement is never necessary.
Should I share my experience with the writer I worked with?
Absolutely! Your positive or negative feedback helps us maintain service quality. If a writer receives multiple genuine complaints, we may remove them from our team. It’s crucial to note that accusations about writers refusing to work without payments or over the specified scope are invalid. Fundamental issues like missing deadlines or poor communication will be addressed. We’ve had a few such incidents since our company started due to our quality and ethical standards, and we have taken appropriate actions. Feel free to share your experience.
Ghostwriting
What if I don’t need the full ghostwriting package?

We also lower the price if you only need a few services. We’d love to meet all of your needs so that you can reach your goals.
Do I have to grant the credit to the ghostwriter?
No! This is why it’s called ghostwriting. Nobody will know you got writing help. At Mayfair Publishers, we provide complete privacy. We don’t demand content ownership. Even if your book makes millions or billions, we have no rights or credit. Beware of ghostwriters who charge more if your book is successful.
Are your services 100% private?
Yes, absolutely! We protect your privacy and keep all services confidential. We will never share your personal information or content. Our privacy policy is detailed and reliable, and we offer an NDA (non-disclosure agreement) for your peace of mind. We value your trust and will protect your privacy throughout.
Does ghostwriting take time?
It depends on content and requirements. Creating a good book takes weeks and hundreds of hours. Material collection, planning, writing, and editing are the steps. Maintaining the book’s identity is crucial. A 200-page book takes 5–8 months. However, we can finish it more quickly if you sign up for the urgent-delivery method.

Editing
What's the main difference between extensive editing and proofreading?
The primary difference is the depth of the work. Extensive editing improves your book’s substance, structure, flow, plot, character development, and clarity. However, proofreading fixes minor grammatical, punctuation, and writing errors to make the work look faultless.
How can I determine which kind of service I need?
Depends on material quality and concept clarity. This question usually occurs during manuscript development. If your document is well-written, you just need good proofreading. First drafts, rapid writing, and beginner authors benefit from editing. Writing feedback is best obtained through critical examination and review. This method provides thorough development advice. We offer ghostwriting and rewriting to add depth and eliminate errors in your work. We offer a free initial assessment and analysis, so send a sample of your work or content without fear. Our experts will also evaluate your items and recommend the best services.
Will your editors be available to execute the revisions?
Yes, we will embrace feedback and provide multiple revisions for further development, but it is entirely up to you. Usually, we keep note of every modification before fixing any grammatical mistakes.
I've already written a book but didn’t succeed. Are you able to assist?
Writing requires creativity and talent. Not everyone possesses this skill. A writer requires an editor to track changes and collaborate on the best outcome. We may also check your work for errors and flaws to improve it. We provide multiple ideas and query letters as part of our ghostwriting services.
Finding the best ghostwriting agency? No worries! We’ll provide a list of literary experts who are familiar with your particular genre. We help seasoned and inexperienced authors to make their work better. Our professional writers, editors, publishers, and marketers can help you achieve your writing goals.
How much will the editing price vary?
The length of your manuscript and the genre of your book will determine how much your project will cost. Before agreeing to the job, you can discuss the price with the designer if you get in touch with them.
How much time will your editing service take?
The exact time of editing will depend on the complexity of your book, the length of your book, and the number of chapters. However, we will discuss it in detail during the free consultation call.
Publishing
What is your book publishing process?
Our book publishing service aims at taking your manuscript and publishing it as professionally as possible. We handle all aspects of publishing, including:
ISBN Registration: To get our book officially cataloged, we obtain an ISBN for your book that prepares it for distribution.
Formatting and Design: We properly edit and make your manuscript ready for print and digital printing and create a book cover that reflects your ideas and current trends.
Distribution Setup: We place your book at major outlets such as Amazon, Barnes and Noble and other book retailers so that it can reach as many people as possible.
Print and E-book Production: As for format, you may require print copies, electronic copies or both. We ensure a smooth production to allow you to achieve your publishing objectives.
Do you guarantee that my book will be published?
We do our best to help you prepare your book for publication and offer a variety of services to turn it into a publication-ready book, but the choice of publication, especially with traditional publishing houses, depends on current trends, the publisher’s interest, and the audience’s interest.
However, if you choose our self-publishing service, we will guide you through each step to prepare and publish your book on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or any other platform.
Can you help with marketing my book after it’s published?
Absolutely! Publishing is just the beginning. Marketing services help sell your book to the right audience. No matter what marketing strategy, attractive promotional graphics, social media advertising, or SEO services you need, our team will get your book the exposure it needs to reach the right audience.
Will my book retain copyright after it is published?
Yes, you will still have complete ownership and copyright to your work as the author. We guarantee that all rights are yours. We will walk you through the steps to protect your intellectual property and, if required, register your copyright if you decide to self-publish.
Marketing
How many books will be sold as a result of book marketing?
There is no good way to tell how many books will sell. It’s hard to say how many books or e-books will sell because of things that can’t be predicted, like how the media will react to a book and how an author will do in interviews. However, trustworthy marketing companies like ours will only work on books they know from experience will do well in the media, which drives book sales.
If I need only marketing consultation, will Mayfair Publishers help?
Yes! We help authors at different points in the publishing and marketing process by advising them. Help with making a long-term plan for before and after publication, coming up with book titles and covers as a team, tips on website content, Amazon optimization, and others.
What types of book marketing do you offer?
Our services include social networking promotion, Amazon promotion, e-mail promotion, author website creation, and press release distribution. You can also feature your book on the New York Times Square billboard or take your book to book fairs. Our approaches, which are the targeting of key opinion leaders and the use of paid promotions, ensure that the content reaches as many readers as possible and that the readers are active.
My book is self-published. Is there any problem with marketing?
Not at all! Self-published books are market-ready. We have more experience in promoting self-published books than others. Your book shall go to the respective audience in the right manner.
