Self-publishing experts: why choose BookBaby instead of Reedsy?
Let’s start with the obvious: Reedsy isn’t a publisher, but we are. In fact, Reedsy publishing is simply a collection of links and information from other publishers. Essentially, Reedsy provides information about learning to do the numerous different things that BookBaby does for you, but when it comes to actually creating your book, Reedsy won’t be able to help you like BookBaby. They don’t publish, they don’t edit, they don’t design, they don’t print, they don’t make digital books, they don’t distribute books, they don’t facilitate royalty reporting, they don’t do book marketing, and they certainly don’t answer the phone.
Reedsy will link you elsewhere for publishing, editing, design, and book marketing services, or freelancers like tier publishing professionals, web designers, and ghostwriters. In contrast, BookBaby has everything you need, all under one roof. And any time you run into any problems, our Publishing Specialists will help you out. We guarantee it!
BookBaby offers people-powered publishing, meaning that our authors get to speak directly to the people who make the process happen. Our Publishing Specialists are available via phone five days a week. Conversely, Reedsy’s support staff can only be reached via email or chatbot. BookBaby thrives on establishing a human connection with our authors and publishers.
