OK

3.5 stars. The first promo did well, but the second was disappointing for the price. Easy to work with.

Tried once

I tried them with a few titles and saw no sales or read-through on the series. Could be that it's better for other genres, so I'd try again if the price wasn't too high. I've tried romance and nonfiction titles.

Got a good response from this service

This one worked out well for me. I received over 60 sales for that day. I will use their services again. I think it all depends on your genre. Mystery seems to be the best, and then Romance after that. Once you start going into other genres, readers start to lean out.
