About Us

Publishing Services was founded by Laura Mikkelsen in March 2019. If you used our services back then, you might remember us as a one-woman copywriting service called Best Selling Book Descriptions, but like all great ideas, we grew!

In 2020, Sarah Eberstadt took over the company, leading a rebranding to become Publishing Life Services. With the new direction, our team expanded, and our service offerings grew. By 2022, we were ready for another transformation into the Publishing Services you see today.

The vision for Publishing Services was born out of the growing need for a one-stop solution that could offer high-quality support to self-publishers. As the self-publishing industry expanded, it became clear that authors needed more than just great writing; they needed a comprehensive service to handle everything from book descriptions to editing, formatting, and cover design. With this in mind, Publishing Services was built to provide self-publishers with all the tools they need to create high-quality, successful books—all in one place.

As positive reviews rolled in and demand surged, Publishing Services expanded to meet the growing needs of self-publishers. Our team quickly grew to include a talented group of writers, editors, formatters, and designers, all dedicated to delivering high-quality services. At the heart of this expansion is our formidable all-female management team, who lead with vision and expertise, ensuring that every project is handled with precision and care.

With Sarah at the helm, the Publishing Services management team leads a company that customers come back to time and time again.
