Top 5 Reasons to Self-Publish Your Books

As a multi-book published non-fiction author, I’ve had the opportunity to experience self-publishing for myself as well as my clients over the last 10 years. While there are pros and cons to traditional as well as indie publishing, I’ve found that self-publishing offers a number of advantages that can help you get your book into the hands of readers faster and more easily.

Here are my top five reasons to self-publish your books:

Complete creative control. When you self-publish, you have complete control over every aspect of your book, from the cover design to the marketing plan. This means you can ensure that your book is exactly the way you want it to be, without having to compromise with a publisher.

Speed to market. The traditional publishing process can be long and drawn-out, taking months or even years from the time you submit your manuscript to the time your book is finally published. Self-publishing, on the other hand, allows you to get your book into the hands of readers much faster. With self-publishing, you can typically publish your book within a few weeks or months of completing your manuscript.

Global reach. When you self-publish, your book can be available to readers all over the world. This is because self-publishing platforms like Amazon allow you to distribute your book to online retailers in every country. Traditional publishers, on the other hand, typically only distribute their books in certain countries.

More profit. When you self-publish, you keep all the profits from your book sales. Traditional publishers, on the other hand, typically take a large cut of book sales. This means that you can make more money by self-publishing your books.

Personal fulfillment. Self-publishing is a great way to achieve your dream of becoming a published author. It’s also a great way to share your knowledge and expertise with the world. When you self-publish, you have the satisfaction of knowing that you are the one who made your book a reality.

If you’re thinking about publishing a book, I encourage you to consider self-publishing. It’s a great way to get your book into the hands of readers, make more money, and achieve your dream of becoming a published author.
