I used Emerald Coast to review my application. I think it was $80 bucks at the time and while they made inputs to the app, I don't know that it was anything make or break (mostly minor punctuation stuff). That said, they might catch something huge like a gap in history or missing credentials. If you know anybody with experience (not even necessarily with the majors), have them look at your application.
No magic formula. Just from listening to other guys, I think one of the biggest issue is missing information. Be thorough.
