Not to mention having a good editor helping you. Even if a writer has a great story to tell, an exciting blurb, and an eye catching cover, even with all that if when the reader opens the book they seem a ton of grammatical and or punctuation errors they'll leave and very likely not come back for a second book. And they may very well blog about author x's book and how many errors it has which will also generate publicity for your work though of the wrong kind of course.
