Stories from professionals on the Reedsy marketplace.

Ryan Quinn - Editor

"Reedsy provides freelancers with both opportunity and flexibility. As a freelance professional on Reedsy, you get to set your own schedule, pick the projects you want to work on, and really develop an understanding of what the market will bear when it comes to setting your rates for a particular project."

Angela Brown - Editor

"I’ve been editing for Reedsy for more than three years. Because of the number of requests I receive—especially since genre fiction is booming right now—I can limit the books I edit to ones that are well written and that have strong commercial potential. I love to take great books and help make them outstanding, and Reedsy has allowed me to do just that."

Michael Doane - Marketer

"Working with Reedsy has given me the opportunity to work with incredible authors like T. M. Holladay and M. G. Herron. They've created a community of dedicated authors and talented professionals that is redefining the publishing world. I've built the foundation of an author consulting business through Reedsy's platform."

We also have a variety of publishers, from independent publishing houses to ‘Big Five’ coming to Reedsy to find freelancers.

I’m not a freelancer. Can I still join?

Absolutely. Many professionals offer their services on Reedsy while also working a full-time job. It’s a great opportunity to work on diverse projects and make some serious additional income.

How much time do I need to invest?

It’s entirely up to you. You’re in control of the projects you accept and the time you spend working with new clients. And for the times you’re too busy, you can set yourself away.

How much money can I make?

It depends on how much work you’ll decide to take on, and what the demand we have for the type of services you offer. You can check the average rates charged by our editors and designers here – in any case, you’re the one setting your own rates.

How much does it cost?

It’s free to join Reedsy and list your services on the marketplace. You then keep 90% of each project you work on (minus payment fees), Reedsy charges only a 10% commission.

How do I get paid?

When sending an offer to a client, you are able to create a payment schedule with multiple installments. During a project, payments are made automatically to you on the due dates, so you never have to chase clients. Those dates are also easily updatable once a collaboration has started, with the approval of your client.
