Hello again! Remind us who you are and what business you started.
Hi! I’m Laura Mikkelsen, and I’m the founder and CEO of Publishing Services. As you can see in my first interview, I started the company as a one-person copywriting service for book descriptions in 2019, striving to create best-selling Amazon book descriptions that self-published authors could use to sell their work.
Today, Publishing Services is a one-stop shop for every service a self-publisher needs to publish their books on Amazon. In under five years, we’ve grown the company from $72K per month to now making $155K in a single month. From a one-woman business to a 62 person-strong team, we’ve drawn on skills from multiple areas.
I’ve always had huge drive and ambition, and I’ve always believed in the company, but never in my wildest dreams did I imagine we’d grow this much this quickly – especially not in those early days when I was sitting on the beach writing one order a day!
