How NOT to Self-Publish – Self-Publishing Companies to Avoid

August 24, 2020 by Ben Galley

If you’re an indie author, here’s how to avoid being conned by so-called self-publishing companies.

Time to dive into the subject of self-publishing, and we’re going straight in at the deep-end with how NOT to self-publish. In this episode, I show you how to dodge a mistake a lot of authors have made: trusting in companies run by Author Solutions.

I believe these companies regularly prey on authors’ dreams and lack of knowledge to sell ridiculously, overpriced packages, deliver sub-standard services, and make it insanely difficult for an author to see success. Watch me prove it, see their tactics up close, and note down some red flags for avoiding companies like these.
