What Is Warwick Associates and What Services Does It Offer?
Updated
Warwick Associates is a full-service publishing consulting firm that guides self-publishers from manuscript development through printed book, distribution, sales, and publicity. It also works with publishers, authors, and distributors on book sales, marketing, and launch campaigns. The firm is best suited to authors and publishers in spiritual, inspirational, metaphysical, and "mission-driven" genres, though it also serves clients in law, computing, real estate, business, education, health, and autobiography.

Subject Specialties
Warwick Associates states its expertise lies in spiritual, inspirational, metaphysical, and "mission-driven" publishing, with over 20 years of experience in the industry. It has also worked with clients in law, computing, real estate, business, education, health, and autobiographical genres.
The site's featured publicity campaigns reflect this focus — recent titles include works on crystal skulls, spiritual warrior practice, quartz therapy, and healing, published through imprints such as Palm Publications, Yellow Hat Publishing, and New Page Books.
Getting Started
Warwick Associates invites prospective clients to contact its office, noting that the first half-hour consultation is free. You can also describe your project by submitting the response form on its website. The firm is based in Sonoma, California.
If your book falls within mind-body-spirit or mission-driven categories and you need help with either publicity or the self-publishing process end to end, Warwick Associates is structured for exactly that combination. If you are outside those genres, the site indicates it has handled other categories as well, so a consultation is the practical way to confirm fit.
