The publishers should offer services on a a la carte basis. You want editing you pay so much per hour. You want a cover they have artists on commision. You want help with legal matters they have lawyers available. You pay up front for the services you want. No different than hiring a contractor to improve your house. You pay them and ownership of house or book stays yours. instead of only offering services to a select few they could expand their business to provide services to as many authors that are willing to pay. They might need to hire many times their current number of employees.
